SNP quota arrangement with fixed lot size

Hi all,
i have a question regarding quota arrangement for external procurement in snp heuristic. Whe have 2 sources of suppy created by info record. The quota is 25% for the first and 75% for the second one. In product master there is maintained a fixed lot sice of 500.000. Im wondering that the snp heuristic creates 2 requisitions of 500.000 for each sos at the same day. So we get an serios excess. Any ideas?
Kind regards,
Christian

Hi,
thanks for reply. Ok, normally net requirement calculation works properly. In case of a shortage the heuristic shall apply an receipt with the fixed lot size wich is maintained in material master. However, in out particular case it generates the double receipt quantity which is not needed at the receipt date.
The heuristic should do the following:
Day 01 Stock 100
Day 02 DepDmd 20
Day 03 DepDmd 20
Day 04 DepDmd 20
Day 05 DepDmd 20
Day 06 DepDmd 20
Day 07 PurReq 100 !! Source 1!!
Day 08 DepDmd 20
Day xx PurReq 100 !! Source 2!!
and not:
Day 01 Stock 100
Day 02 DepDmd 20
Day 03 DepDmd 20
Day 04 DepDmd 20
Day 05 DepDmd 20
Day 06 DepDmd 20
Day 07 PurReq 100 !! Source 1!!
Day 07 PurReq 100 !! Source 2!!
Day 08 DepDmd 20
In this example 100 would be the fixed lot size from material master.
Best regards,
Christian

Fixed Lot Size and Assemby Scrap

Hi Gurus,
I've an issue using a Material with Fixed Lot Size (MRP View) and Assembly Scrap.
The system doesn't increase the base quantiy (creating a Process Order) with the Assembly Scrap defined in the Material Master, if you change manually the quantity in the COR2 quantiy will be recalculated correctly.
Anybody can help me?
Thanks

dear marco,
One changes in my earlier post
IF fixed lot size is 1000, and assemby scrap as 10 %
if the pir is for 900
after running MRP system will create a plan order for 1000
In MD04 , you can see the receipt reqmt as 900 and scrap as 100
i.e System will allocate the scrap with in the fixed lot size
Once the plan order is converted in to process order you can see
the total qty as 1000 and scrap 100
for other lot size system will add the PIR reqmt +assembly scrap %,
Yes you can change the qty in COr2, system will update as per the scrap qty , i.e system will allocate the qty for scrap
for ex , if you are changing the total qty as 10000, system will propose 1000 as scrap,
when you save the order and see the mD04
you can see the receipt/ reqmt qty as 9000 and scrap as 1000
i.e system will allocate the 1000 qty from total qty
Hope you are clear how the fixed lot size is working for assembly scrap

MRP planning Purchase REQ per fixed lot size

Folks,
I have materials which have MRP type PD with fixed lot size of 20 pieces. Safety stock = 200 pieces. MRP run results in 10 preqs of 20 pieces each. I would like to have 1 Preq of 200 pieces. How can this be achieved?
Regards,
MdZ

Hi,
This is because of Lot size "FX" you maintained as 20.
For FX lot size system will divide the total qty as per the fixed lot qty & throw that much of PR for that stock.
So Safety stock = 200, FX =20 so PR will be 200/20 = 10 PRs
If you want 1 PR for your safety stock, then change the Lot size to "EX" then system will throw 1 PR for 200 qty as per your Safety stock

Different fix lot size depending on the production version

Hi all,
I have the next scenario:
2 production versions. 2 different fix lot size por each. So:
Prod Version 1 - Fix lot size 200
Prod Version 2 - Fix lot size 300
I created the Quota Arrangement just to make SAP to take my favourite version. And trought the quota, I can define the lot size for each version. BUT.
If I change the version in the order or in the planned order, the quantity don't change.
So: How can I manage 2 different fix lot size for 2 different product versions? If I change the version once the order is created, how can I do the system change de quantity to the right one?
Thanks in advante
<< Please do not offer points >>
Edited by: Rob Burbank on Oct 1, 2010 2:53 PM

I have n't tried this scenario,
This is my Idea
Create a two production version
for ex: lot size 100 to 1000, set the rounding profile qty as 1000
for lot size 1001 to 99999, set the lot rounding profile value to 5000
BY this way u can get the two lot based on the rounding profie
Expert; please correct if i am wrong

Fixed lot size and Minimum lot size

Dear senior,
My client has the following scenario. His supplier provides the item in a fixed lot size of 100. The minimum lot size to be ordered is 300.
The supplier is a fixed vendor.
I tried to maintain this information in the Material Master MRP views. Lot size - FX, Fixed lot size - 100, Minimum lot size - 300.
However, everytime, the minimum lot size will get reset.
Is there any way , I can maintain this scenario via configuration or any other method?
Thank you.

Hi,
Fixed lot size - 100 means for every 100 quantity system will create one purchase document.
If you selected Lot size - FX - Fixed order quantity , then no need to maintain Minimum lot size & Maximum lot size fields.
Then you have to maintain Fixed lot size filed only.
Ex:
Lot size = FX
Fixed lot size = 100
There is a requirement of 300. Then system will create 3 PO's with quantity of 100 each.
If Lot size is Ex - Lot-for-lot order quantity, then only need to maintain Minimum lot size & Maximum lot size fields in the MRP 1 view.
Ex: Lot size = EX
Minimum lot size = 60
Maximum lot size = 100
There is a requirement of 250. Then system will create 3 purchase documents, two documents with the quantity of 100 and third one with the quantity of 60.
That's why, in your case system is reseting Minimum lot size every time.
If you want to maintain Minimum lot size, then maintain
Lot size as EX
Minimum lot size = 100
Max lot size = 300
It will solve your problem.

Fixed lot size key has no effect on planned orders generated for VC PIRu2019s

Hello gurus,
does anyone have an idea why the fixed lot size key is not having an effect on the planned orders that are generated for the Planned Independent Requirements (PIR) for MTO configurable materials. My client is using planning strategy 56.
I have copied & customized the Fixed lot size key FX to suit the MTO production (u201CLot size as in short-term periodu201D activated) that works nicely even with configurable materials when a planned order is generated for a sales order. But the planned orders in the preplanning segment, i.e. that were generated for PIR's, are still created equally to the PIR quantity.
Is this behavior an error or an SAP feature? Though, I have reviewed the OSS Note 437098 that might be related to this. Can anyone tell me if it is related to this issue?
Regards,
Mikko

Got the answer fro SAP:
Please consider the following note, which provides the explanation about this behavior of the lot-size, when VSE requirements are used:
125498 - MRP/Docu: Planning segment and lot-for-lot order quantity
The following section of the note describes your scenario in detail:
"The planned independent requirements for a material are in a separate
planning segment (planning strategy planning without final assembly,
requirements type VSE, VSEV).
You enter a rounding value or a rounding profile or an lot size that is
not exact in the material master.
Material Requirements Planning:
In Material Requirements Planning, planned orders are generated for the
planned independent requirements. The lot size settings (such as fixed
lot size or minimum lot size) are also not taken into account."

Report for Reorder point, safety stock, current stock and fixed lot size

Hi,
Purchasing Dept. is looking for a report which can give list of materials falling below the reorder point, so that they can go ahead and create procurement proposals for those materials.
They also want to see the Reorder Point, Safety Stock, current stock and fixed lot size in the same report.
Let me know if there ia any standard report availbale which displays the same or any approach to get the same.
Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
Shankar Goud.

Hi,
There is no standard report because this is meant to be managed by the MRP run.
The MRP lists show all materials that have a problem (such as stock below reorderpoint) but MRP generates requirements for these anyway and so all you need to do is to look for the MRP generated requirements (requisitions?) and you have your list?
Are you using MRP?
If so then please use the standard functions in MRP to get this.
If not, then WHY NOT?

Fixed Lot Size

Dear Gurus,
I am simulating the functionality of Fixed Lot Size so I enter Lot Size = FX and indicated Fixed order Quantity = 40,000 in Material Master. We are using Ind./Coll = 1 and I want to generate fixed quantity of planned order equal to 40,000. But when I run MD42, the system still generated planned order equal to the shortage/required quantity. Our requirement is to generate fixed quantity of 40,000 per planned order regardless of demand requirement.
Please help. Thanks in advance.
Regards,
SD

Hi,
Please find my reply below,
Use MRP Type VB:Manual reorder point planning:Here you need to define reorder point in material master in MRP view.When the stock level reaches the re order point then system will create a procurement proposals.

How to maintain Quota arrangement with respect to production verson

Hi,
I maintained Quota arrangement(without splitting) with respect to the two different production versions of a material and when i checked by running MRP. quota arrangement is not working. the system allocates the demand only to the active production version(which has the current validity period).
I guess i am missing something, can some one tell me how to maintain the quota arrangement with respect to production versions.
we have a requirement where a material is manufactured in house and will have 2 different production versions with 2 different validity periods in material master and they need the quota arrangement to work on this material in M.R.P for 2 different production versions.
I have maintained the quota arrangement usage= 3 in material master.
Thanks
Mahendra

Hi,
for the req qty to be distributed between two differnt production vesion, you might have to activate splitting in MEq1.
Give the min qty as 1, so that you req qty could be distributed between two differnt production version.
Pls conifm if it is through or if there is any other solution .
regards
Harish

Combination of Fixed Lot size and Period lot size

Dear all
I have scenario as follows:
1. My supplier's standard packing size of a raw material is 1000 EA.
2. I want to follow period based lot size to optimise my order and inventory cost. But I don't want to use dynamic lot size which will propose dynamic quantity.
So my requirement is like I want to fix lot size as 1000 at material master and Period is Week. My proposal quantity must be 5000 EA for the following demand pattern:
Week 1:1200
Week 2: 1000
Week 3: 1100
Week 4: 1000
System must consider period as well as fixed quantity.
Kindly throw some light on this.
Advance thanks.

Hi
1.As you are looking for Weekly demand demand quanityt , you have to assign Weekly Lot Size : WB.
2. Goto OWD1 and Create a Rounding Profile which will rounds into Weekly Demand quantity for that plant and simulate .
3.Assign this rounding profile in MMR in MRP1
3.DO NOT assing rounding valu as 1000 .Rather keep it blank
Hope this will solve the problem

Lot for lot(EX) with minimum lot size

Hi Experts,
Is it possible to have Ex with minimum lot size. I have a situation where an FG cannot be produced over a certain qty but can be produced in any numbers beyond that. Please explain.
Regards,
Sachin

Hi,
You can use Lot size key EX- lot for Lot order and Minimum lot size as per the requirement. If the lot size is smaller than the Minimum lot size qty procurement proposals will be created for the minimum lot size quantity.
Hope it resolve your issue. Kindly revert for further clarification.
thanks and regards

Lot size EX with Minimum lot size

Hi all,
I have a query like how will the material behave if the following settings are made
MRP type:M0
Lot size:EX
Minimum lot size:100
Rounding value:100
Maximum lot size:300
My main question is is it right to use lot size EX along with mimium lot size value,rounding value,Maximum lot size defined.

Hi Anshul
Ex is lot for lot order quqntity. It will put lot size exactly what is required from MRP run. During MRP run after net requirement calculation the system will look for Lot size,Rounding value and Rounding profile before making procurement proposal.
You can use EX with Rounding value
If you requirement is 180 Nos and the rounding vaule is 100 the lot size for this will be 200.
Hope this will clear your doubt.
Regards

Material Cost Estimate with different lot size.

What happens if the material cost estimate is run twice using different lot sizes each time (all other parameters unchanged) for the same period?
Will the cost estimate run later overwrites the results from cost estimate run earlier (though the lot size is different)? What is the role of lot size in a material cost estimate?

The costing lot size impacts your cost estimate if you have lot size independent costs (i.e. setup cost). Those fixed costs are spread over the costing lot sizee to give you a cost per unit.. Larger costing lot sizes can also help you minimize rounding issues.
You can only have one marked cost estimate in a given period. However, you can create and save a cost estimate as many times as you want as long as you have not marked it for release. When you save the estimate it will overwrite an existing estimate. You also have the option of creating multiple estimates under different versions or with different costing variants.

How to perform Data Collection on single SFC with QTY = 1 with material lot size 1?

Dear experts,
We are working with SFC qty>1 on a relaxed routing. At a given operation we want to collect the data on single quantity; i.e. SFC qty on that operation, where the collection will happen, will be 1.The corresponding material lot size is for ex 10. The operator must be able to collect data on SFC with qty=1 multiple times until the quantities will be consumed. He must be also able to collect other values on the remaining quantities on the same operation with the same DC group or other DC groups. How many times the data must be collected is dependent on the shop order build quantity. The data may be collected several time but not more than the build qty. In other words some specific data will be collected on a qty of a product while others will be collected against remaining quantity. The data collection must be also done in a serialized manner.
Here's what we have set up so far:
1) 3 DC groups, each DC group has 3 data fields.
2) Each data field has the following restrictions: Required Data Entries = 0 and Optional Data Entries = 1
3) All DC groups are attached on the same combination of operation\material\routing
4) we are using relaxed routing
Process description:
The operator must be able to collect any data field on single product. For that he will enter the operation where the data collect are attached, he will enter the SFC with qty=1 then he will run the data collection after selecting the appropriate DC Group and entering the needed information. The operator will complete the SFC with qty=1.
The operator will pick the next product, select the same SFC and enter qty 1 and collect other value against this product.
Problem is:
Once the first collection is done on a given SFC with entered qty=1, the system is not allowing the operator to do further collects on the same SFC with qty=1 or any other quantity. He cannot select any DC group from the DC group list. We tried also with the table selection menu on the DC Group list but nothing can be selected.
So we tried to play around with the DC group definitions as follows:
A) we set Required Data Entries = 0 and Optional Data Entries = 10. Still the operator was not able to select any DC group after collecting data the first time. We tried to reopen the pod and list again. But we get the same blocking behavior.
B) we set Required Data Entries = 10 and Optional Data Entries = 1. The operator was able to select the DC group after collecting data the first time. BUT operator must enter the data fields 10 times on one SFC quantity, which is not what we want. Besides again he cannot collect other information on remaining quantities on the same operation.
C) There's an option to serialize the SFC before reaching the operation where the collection is happening, then merging ofter complete. Automation is needed here; hence customization. We are highly avoiding customization now, since we expect the data collect to work well on single quantities even when the main SFC has qty>1
Questions:
1) Are we missing any kind of further configuration\setup?
2) Or the current system design does not allow collecting data on single quantities of an SFC which main quantity is greater than 1?
3) Looking at this link Approaches to Collection of Data - SAP Manufacturing Execution (SAP ME) - SAP Library, there's nothing mentioned about same SFC number with multiple quantities!!!
We are using SAP ME 15.0.3.0.
Thanks in advance for your help
Ali

Ali
to collect data for the same SFC multiple times, your system rule "Allow Multiple Data Collection" needs to be set to true for the site.

Schedule with dependent lot size problem

Hi,
    I maintain the setup/process/tear down time(base qty is 10) in Work Schedule view in MM02(dependent with lot size)..But the begin date/end date in these POs are the same when I create Production Orders with different qty.
    It seems my setting doesn't take effect..Do you have any suggestion?
PO 1:   100 qty      Start date 11/10 End DAte 11/11
PO 2:    1 Qty      Start date 11/10 End DAte 11/11
PO 3:1000000 Qty Start date 11/10 End DAte 11/11
Why the start/end date doesn't change based on my PO qty?thanks..

In-house production time (lot size dependent or independent) is used for calculating the basic dates of planned orders when MRP is run with basic dates parameter (instead of lead time scheduling). However when production orders are created basic dates are always determined according to the production dates and production dates are determined by lead time scheduling. In other words, the lot size dependent production time data that you have maintained could only determine basic dates of planned orders, only if MRP is run with that parameter. In the case of your production orders, standart values of the operations and formulas of the work centers are used by lead time scheduling. Dates might be equal because scheduling formulas of work centers does not consider order quantities or labour hours, which would be multiplied by order quantities, are not maintained in routings. Investgate the production dates and scheduling of the operations in production orders. Also have MRP create planned orders to see the effects of lot size dependent times in master data. Be sure to emty the lot size independent production time in material master to avoid it overwriting lot size dependent time.
Regards.
