SNP PPM and R/3 BOM concept??

Hello All,
I am using SNP for planning a material in APO. That material has many sub-component in R/3 BOM. I am interested in only one of its sub component.
Currently we release forecast from DP to R/3 and plan that finished material in R/3.
My question is " Can I plan only the finished material and only one sub-component in SNP?"
Also can I release the forecast for the finished material to R/3 as well as to SNP and plan rest all sub-component in R/3 and the one sub-component that I am interested in in SNP?
Thanks,
Sanju

hi,
Yes, you can plan the FG material and ur required subcomponent matl in SNP by ensuring that MRP type is XO for these products while Cifing them to APO.
when Forecast is released from DP to SNP, the planning takes place and ppm exlposion happens which gives planned orders for FG, dependent demand planned orders for the sub component u require.
when the planned orders for the FG is cifed to R/3 and mrp run is taken, bom explosion happens in R/3 ensuring planning for the rest of the sub components ( no additional plan is generated for the already planned sub component in SNP)
So, u dont need to release the plans to R/3 and SNP simulataneously which will lead to double planning.
Hope that explains ur query .
revert back in case of ane doubts.

Switch between SNP-PPM and SNP-PDS

Hi,
In APO I have both SNP-PPM and SNP-PDS, but right now I am having some trouble with the bucket time from the PDS so I am trying to temporarly change my PDS to PPM.
My query is:
- Is there a way in APO to make the SNP-PPM the default production model over theSNP- PDS?
I was searching for some kind of documentation on this topic and I found that I should change the priority for the PDS throught the PDS_MAINT transaccion in ECC, is this the only way to do it?
Thank you in advance,
Fernando

Hi ,
SNP heuristics planning source determination gives first preference to Quota arrangement.
You may include PDS as a source of supply in the inbound quota arrangement of the product.
There is a BADI BAdI /SAPAPO/PWB_SOS to modify the content and the sequence of the sources of supply in the ranking list.
The normal ranking list for SNP source determonation is as below:
Quota arrangements
Procurement priority
Procurement costs
Procurement type
There are two other BADIs releveant as below:
u2022 /SAPAPO/CURTO_SNP ) Enhancements When Creating an SNP PDS (R/3) (Generation)
u2022 /SAPAPO/CULLRTOSNP ) Change SNP/CTM Production Data Structure Data (Generation)
Hope this gives some options.

SNP PPM and Co-products

Hello All,
Our design is to have one SNP PPM with more than one output products. Howeverm when there is demand for one product, the receipt for only that product should be generated. For example:
Product A - Demand = 100
Product B - Demand = 0
Product C - Demand = 0
When I run heuristic, I get a planned order of 100 for Product A which is good. But what i am also seeing that manufacture of products for Product B and Product C.
Is there a way to prevent the creation of the manufacture of co-products eventhough the SNP PPM has more than one output components.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Virendar,
Thanks for the input. But the flag you were suggesting wouldn't really help because all the products that are in PPM are output products and not components. As per my requirement,
If
Product A - Demand = 100
Product B - Demand = 0
Product C - Demand = 0
I need a planned order for only product A and nothing for the other 2 products
If
Product A - Demand = 0
Product B - Demand = 100
Product C - Demand = 0
I need a planned order for only product Band nothing for the other 2 products
And so on and so forth.
Thx

Linking SNP PPM to desired ECC production version

Hi
We have a need where we manually create SNP PPMs and so the APO and ECC have no connection in terms of the PPM or production version.
I have two SNP PPM1, PPM2 in APO and I have two production versions in SAP ECC, VA and VB.
The requirement is to some how maintain a table in APO where we can choose to map the SNP PPM to ECC production version.
something like
SNP PPM1 and PPM2 both need to refer to version VB so that an SNP planned order pushed into ECC would automatically pick up production version VB.
Appreciate if any one can throw some light on how we can create a user maintained table or Z transaction in APO to achieve this.

Hello KA,
Could you please let me know why you want to change the source of supply in ECC only?
Do you have PPDS? If yes then you can have one source of supply for that production version VB and transfer these orders to ECC system.
Apart from that if you want to do the development then check FM /SAPAPO/DM_PROD_ORDER_CHG_OLTP inside that with your own custom logic you can update the production version.

SNP Interactive Planning. Problems for SNP PPM plant

Hi All
Can you advise please why SNP interactive planning does not create SNP planned order when there are SNP and PP/DS related PPMs together.
And once i delete SNP PPM, SNP interactive planning creates SNP Planned Order without any problems.
Once i again create SNP PPM and run SNP interactive planning- it does not create planned order to fullfill demand.
Thanks
Best Regards
Andrey

Hi Nandha
Thanks! You solved a problem. PPM had maximum/minumum lot size 100 while in product master in Quantity determination max/min lot size fields were empty.
I've added the same values to product master as in PPM and run again SNP interactive planning.
And planned order was created.
Thanks!
Best Regards
Andrey

SNP PPM Generation after the delta change in PPDS PPM

Dear Colleagues,
In oss note 1172838 SAP AG states that there is no auto link to
generate SNP PPMs from PPDS PPMs,when PPDS PPMs are changed from R/3
and recommends the customers to do that manually.
Yes, that is possible if the company uses not more that 50-100 PPMs,
but that is not the case in our business.
We have ~10000 SNP PPMs and it is impossible to track the changes and
update the PPMs manually.
What we need (when there is a change in PPDS PPM) is a report which will:
1. Delete SNP PPM with invalid mode combination and the Production
(Planned) orders which use that PPM. The old SNP PPM must be deleted as
the existing name of SNP PPM is required.
2. Create a new mode combination taking into account the changes in the
PPDS PPM.
Then we will run transaction /SAPAPO/PPM_CONV_310 and generate the new
SNP PPMs.
Task in point 1 can be done with transaction /SAPAPO/PPM_DEL,
but it does NOT give us the possibility to select only SNP PPMs
with invalid/obsolete mode combinations. Besides that it can not be run in
background, but in foreground.
Would you share you experience if you have faced the same/similar problem.
Best Regards,
Alper Myumyun

Hi Senthil,
The problem is that the mentioned check does not work. I have even opened an oss message where I have got the following answer:
First you have to re-generate the SNP PPM (invalidity of the old mode combination will be generated) and then the
check will warn you about the invalidity.
This is so because at the first stage there is no issue of it being obsolete until a new one is created.
At the point that you Generate SNP PPM is when the mode invalidity is generated and not before. So its not possible for the warning to have come when there is no invalidity.
/SAPAPO/SAPLSCC_CPIT2 looks scary. There are tons of includes in it. Would you specify which one is used for the mentioned check? INCLUDE /SAPAPO/LSCC_CPIT2F09?
Thanks for your help.

Difference between PDS and PPM and which one should be used for SNP /ppds?

Hi Gurus,
Just wanted to know what are the difference between PDS and PPM ?
1. For what industrial products we use PDS and PPM in SNP and PPDS?
2. which one can be refered to clients?
Please let me know it will be really great if anyone let me know the answers
Thanks & Regards,
Raj

Hi Rajkumar,
I have given below the detailed comparative account of PDS Vs PPM. Please copy and put it in an excel sheet in different columns and then read which is easy to understand.
PDS
1. Production Data Structure (PDS) in APO 3.1 & Run Time Object (RTO) in 4.0 and above versions
2. Master Data Object
3. Useful for scenarios where the compoenent has got different validity periods
4. Used as Master data Basis for Planning in SAP-APO
5. Contains active Master data from iPPE (Integrated Product and Process Engineering) generated from a production version
6. PPDS PDS & SNP PDS can be used as master data for planning
7. Change Management, variant configuration & Phantom assemplies are supported in PDS
8. Sub-contracting in SNP is fully integrated with R/3 is supported in PDS
9. Direct transfer of SNP PDS from R/3 is possible
10.Rapid Planning Matrix can be generated
11. Not possible to maintain PDS directly in APO and can be used only in combination with R/3
12. The transfer of data changes is simpler
13. Not possible to create alternate SNP-PDS in std system for different mode combinations
14. PDS can be automatically generated from two sources ie R/3 and iPPE
PPM:-
1. Production Process Model
2. Master Data Object
3. Cannot be used for scenarios where the component has got different validity period
4. Used as Master data Basis for Planning in SAP-APO
5. Contains active Master data generated from the combination of routing (BoM & receipe) and production versions
6. PPDS PPM & SNP PPM's can be used as master data for planning
7. Not supported by PPM
8. Not supported by PPM
9. Not possible here. SNP PPMs will be generated via PPDS PPMs
10. Not possible
11. PPMs can be directly created in APO and can be modified without R/3 also.
12. Little Complex when compared to PDS
13. Alternate SNP-PPMs can be easily created
14. PPM can be generated automatically generated only from R/3
PDS is used in industries wherein there are multiple components or assemblies having diffeent production versions whose validity periods are different. PPM is being used typically in process industries, chemical industries. PPM is very simple in its usage and very flexible in operations in terms of modifications at APO level and can be referred to client depending on the business requirement

Difference between PPM and PDS, PPDS and SNP

Hello Gurus,
I'am a beginer to APO so could you please let me know about the difference between PPM and PDS? Also the difference between SNP and PPDS/
giri

Production Version in ECC can be transferred to APO as:
PPM - Product Process Model or,
PDS - Product Data Structure
These form the basis master data for Planning in APO
SNP - Supply Network Planning & PPDS - Production Planning and Detailed Scheduling are two Modules in APO for planning purpose.

SNP PPM Generation from PPDS PPM - Time less than 1 sec. in snp bucket con

Dear All,
Request immediate help .
(a) My PPDS PPM have time elements less than 1 seconds towards processing time and there are operations without a set up time .
(b) While converting such a PPM PPM into an SNP PPM I get an error of bucket consumption as SNP cannot convert less than 1 second into a daily bucket .
(c) I have to maintain the base qty in BOM and Routing as 1 unit hence cannot increase the same .
(d) Is there a way in which SNP PPM can be generated from a PPDS PPM wherein the PPDS PPM has only a processing time of 1 second and no set up time .
(e) Infact I have tried to convert the PPDS PPM with a time of 1.5 seconds but now I have lot of products where the routing suggests a processing of less than 1second and no set up . This is leading to a PPDS PPM of time less than 1 second and SNP PPM is not getting generated as guess it cannot convert a PPDS PPM with less than 1.5 seconds in a day .
Would appreciate a quick response .
Thanks and Best Regards ,
Prashant Kumar

Hi
Firstly, can I ask why the base unit has to be 1, this seems a strange restriction?
If it has to be, then two possible solutions:
1) In the CIF enhancement CIFPPM01 you could multiply all values by, for example, 100 to give you larger values in the PP/DS PPM in APO and hence of a size that SNP conversion can cope with.
2) In one of the BADI's /sapapo/ppm_calc or /sapapo/ppm_gen you can do the same conversion factor if the PP/DS PPM has to also be 1 unit.
Hope this helps

Mass Upload of Define Mode Combinations_PPDS to SNP PPM

Dear All ,
I am converting huge numbers of PPDS PPMs to SNP PPMs , I would need your support in telling me a mass upload ( program ) for defining Mode Combinations transaction .
As such a BDC has been prepared but that takes a very long time for pushing data in this transaction .
Thanks and Regards ,
Prashant Kumar

Dear Murali ,
I have specific field values e.g. variable lot size , without PPDS Campaign , Blank Mode Combination to be selected .
When we select the PPDS PPM no. or Product Location Combination inserting all these values in the table after execute done on the selection screen needs manual entry of all the field values .
Data is really very huge and was wondering if there could be a quicker way out . There is more SNP PPM converted from PPDS PPM due to alternate modes of 10-15 in many of the PPDS PPMs .
Would appreciate any further help .
Thanks and Best Regards ,

Error In SNP PPM Creation . . .

Multiple Resource in SNP PPM

Hi Experts,
I have scenario where bottleneck resources changes with time. Lets say that I have two workcenters WC1 & WC2. Operation 10 will be performed through WC1 and operation 20 will be performed through WC2. SFG1 is input material for operation10 and FG1 is output material through WC2. So SFG1 will be processed through WC1 & WC2 and output material is FG1. Operation 10 & 20 are sequential operations. WC1 & WC2 have the same scheduling time for both the operations 10 & 20
Now, WC1 runs in three shifts in May'10 and WC2 runs 2 shifts in May'10. So WC2 is bottleneck resource in May'10. In June'10 WC1 runs in two shifts and WC2 runs in three shifts so WC1 is the bottleneck resource in June'10. Simply, bottleneck resource can be either WC1 & WC2 depends on time.
So in my routing I have two operations and operation 10 contains WC1 & operation20 have WC2. Further, we created Production Version (PV) and CIFed as PPM. When converting PP/DS PPM to SNP PPM I can chose only one mode so only one work center (resource) in one PPM and another work center in another PPM. We need both workcenters in one SNP PPM.
Could any one guide to meet this scenario.
Thanks,
Naveen
