Splitting of requirement in Demand Management as per Factory Calendar

Dear Gurus,
Monthly requirements are loaded as 3 months rolling sales plan at the Sales Plant.
Am carrying out automatic splitting while transfering this to demand management. The demand for the month is split into 4 equal parts (Weekly). However, the requirement date is always the first day of the week (Monday).
Am working in a region where the first working day of the week is Saturday.
Your inputs please.
Thanks
Tarang Machhar
P.S. - Have tried to assign an appropriate Factory calendar. But it does not help.

Hi Tarang,
one option would be to use period based lot size in the material master of the said materials for the said regions.
you need to maintain a planning calender(MD25) that shifts the requirement dates to the previous saturday.
please let me know if u need more details.

Billing plan date should be same as invoice date as per factory calendar

Hi,
We have two contracts, one is having billing plan material and another is having no billing plan material of same customer.When we go for the billing, as because these having all the header fields same it should give one single invoice of those two contracts,but its giving two invoices means the invoice splits.I check it and found, due to different billing date the invoice splits.If we go for VF04 we can force the billing date as same,but they are is a one batch running for this invoice.My invoice date of two contracts is 22.06.2014 which is factory calendar date and billing plan date is 26.06.2014 which is contract start date.My client is asking that can we get billing plan date same as invoice date as per factory calendar in standard to get single invoice? Kindly suggest me where is the settings.
Thanks in Advance
Regards,
Braja

Braja,
Check this
Goto the billing plan tab in the corresponding line item and check the rule that is determined. Now go to the configuration of this rule table by using the path
SPRO>SD> Billing> Billing Plan> Define rules for determining dates and choose your Applicable rule and click on the details.
There you will see the Calendar ID field where you will have to maintain the applicable factory calendar. I think this should work and your billing date on the item relevant for billing plan should be the same as the other item.
Hope this helps,

Demand management split the requirements

Hi
I wonder if anybody knows how to make a daily split for the requirements in demand management.
I have made it but the split is made only for the 5 workdays (monday to friday) but i need to be done in weekdays (monday to sunday).
I've got the restriction of not changing the calendar of the plant because it will affect the others modules of SAP.
Wait for your answer
Please
The points will be waiting

Hi,
Even if you split the reqirement in demand managmant system will not plan the planned order on holiday,
To split the PIR qty
1. goto schedule lines and select the line
2. goto edit mode choose split per online
3. popup will appear
4. enter the period indicator and start and end date of the requirements period
5. enter the qty to be split and enter the period indicator for split enter
6. PIR qty will be split daily
7. daily qty =Total reqmts qty / no of days
Can you try order splitting (FS) and in the takht time enter the number of in house production days (1). In the rounding value assign the quantity for the daily lot size.

SOP - Flexible Planning u2013 Demand Management.

Hello Gurus
Can any one guide me SOP - Long term plannng / Flexible Planning - Transfer to demand managment Process
Thanks

Hi,
Transferring SOP to Demand Management :
Use:
You can pass on data planned in Flexible Planning or Standard SOP to Demand Management.
Demand Management determines the requirement dates and requirement quantities for important assemblies and specifies the strategies for planning and producing/procuring finished products. The result of Demand Management is the demand program. The demand program differentiates planned independent requirements and customer independent requirements. It gives the information needed in MPS and MRP for planning at SKU level. The placing of sales orders eventually consumes planned requirements and triggers updating to the Sales Information System. This actual data can then be used as input for future sales planning. For more information, see PP Demand Management.
Prerequisites:
The system distributes the data to the appropriate plants in Demand Management on the basis of the quotas you set in Customizing (in Define proportional distribution across plants). You can also make these settings in the Flexible Planning or Standard SOP menu by choosing Settings ® Plant distribution. Plant distribution works as follows:
If a plant or plants can be found for the material in the planning hierarchy, data is transferred to Demand Management for these plants.
If no plant can be found in the planning hierarchy, the system checks to see which plants have been maintained for the material in the material master record. It then checks to see whether distribution quotas have been maintained for the material. If quotas have been maintained, the transfer to Demand Management is based on these quotas.
If no distribution quotas are found for the material, the system checks to see whether you have set generic distribution quotas; that is, distribution quotas that apply to all materials. If so, the transfer to Demand Management is based on these quotas. If generic quotas exist for some but not all plants maintained in the material master record, the system assumes that the distribution quotas of plants without generic quotas are 0.
If no distribution quotas are found at allu2014neither material-specific nor generic onesu2014, the system splits the data equally among all the plants in the material master record.
See also:
Plant Distribution Quotas
Features
Independent requirements are created in Demand Management for all materials whose data has been transferred. These independent requirements are created in the base unit of measure of the material. The base unit of measure of the material is not necessarily the same as the base unit of measure of the information structure or the unit in which you planned the material. See also Switching Units in the Planning Table.
You can transfer SOP data to Demand Management in the following ways:
Transferring Online, Synchronously and Automatically:
You set the following information structure parameters in Customizing for Sales & Operations Planning (in Set parameters of info structures and key figures).
Field name of the key figure whose values are to be transferred
Planning version from which the data is to be transferred
Demand version to which the data is to be transferred
The system creates or overwrites independent requirements in Demand Management every time you save this planning version of the information structure in Flexible Planning.
Transferring Online, Asynchronously and Manually
You choose between the following options:
Transfer of the planning data of all members of a single-level product group from standard SOP (a single-level product group is a product group whose members are materials)
Transfer of the planning data created for one material from standard SOP
Transfer of key figure values from an information structure
You make the following general settings:
The material or product group whose data you want to be transferred
The plant of this material or product group
The planning version of the information structure in which the data is stored
The dates for which you want the data to be transferred
Whether you want to check what the data looks like as independent requirements before you transfer it
The requirements type
If you do not make an entry, the system sets the requirements type via the MRP group which is maintained in the material master record.
The version of the demand program to which you want the data to be transferred
Whether this version of the demand program is active and therefore relevant to MRP
Depending on the option you chose in step 1, you set one of the following strategies.
Transferring Planning Data from a Single-Level Product Group:
You transfer the sales plans of the materials direct.
You transfer the sales plans of the materials as proportions of their owner product group (using the proportional factors defined in the product group master record).
You transfer the production plans of the materials direct.
You transfer the production plans of the materials as proportions of their owner product group (using the proportional factors defined in the product group master record).
Transferring Planning Data of One Material from Standard SOP:
You transfer the sales plan of the material direct
You transfer the sales plan of the material as a proportion of the product group of which it is a member (using the proportional factor defined in the product group master record)
You transfer the production plan of the material direct
You transfer the production plan of the material as a proportion of the product group of which it is a member (using the proportional factor defined in the product group master record)
Transferring Key Figure Data of One Material from Flexible Planning
The information structure from which you want the key figure data to be transferred
The key figure whose values you want to be transferred
This key figure must be a quantity key figure.

Sop to demand management

Dear friends,
In SOP Single level product group value can be transferred to demand management (mc81 - extras - transfer to demand management). But for multi level product group - how to transfer to demand management from SOP?
regards
v.senthilkumar

Hi,
This is not possible, since in SOP, values for only the lowest level in a product group, can be transferred to demand management. In case of sinlge level product group, automatically you have the lowest level, which you are transferring (basically the material). But, in case of multi-level, there are PGs below PG.
So, you first need to disaggregate your requirements from a higher level product group to a lower level one. You need to disaggregate to the lowest level (the material) in the hierarchy.
Use transaction MC76 for the same. After that you would be able to transfer the requirements to demand management.
Revert in case of any problems.

Demand Management with Production Versions

Dear all,
Is it possible to link the requirements in Demand Management with a production version which I've listed in the MRP 4 view?

Hi,
Yes it is possible. In MD61 when you place independent demands, switch to the schedule line view & specify which Production Version you want the demand to consider.
Hope the above clarifies.

How requirements from SOP are transferred to Demand Management

How requirements from SOP are transferred to Demand Management? what is transaction code for it ?
Madan S. Rode

Hi,
In mc82 view, after checking the capacity situation(By choosing view, capacity situation, show) you can check the load for that particular resource. Once the load is 100 %. You can save it.
Use mc78, copy the inactive version no to active no. (a00).
Then in mc82 view, go to Extras,
transfer to demand management,
Choose the strategy as LSF/VSF... according to your scenario & then click transfer.

Can anyone share how to integrate Demantra Demand Management to EBS R12?

Hi all,
Can anyone suggest how to integrate Demantra Demand Management to EBS R12?
I use Demantra 7.2 and EBS R12.
I search in Manual and in some blogs but not much data support. If possible, I want step-by-step starting from set up such as setup the instance.
More of my concern are;
- Is Demantra can integrate with MRP, without APS or ASCP?
- Is that necessary to integrate by using seed data? If I implement my series with all new series, how can I suppose to link them to EBS?
Thank you in advance.
Best Regards,
Tanya T.

Hi Tanya,
To begin with, you can refer to the Metalink doc 434991.1 for an in-depth explanation on the integration from a technical perspective. Apart from this, there is an ocean of knowledge in the Demantra Documentation libraby in the metalink.The Implementation Guide provides an overview of the integration processes that synchronize or move data between Oracle Demantra and E-Business Suite applications.
Now coming to your concerns:
- Can Demantra be integrated with MRP, without APS or ASCP?
After going through the above mentioned documents on Demantra, if you still want an integrated instance of Demantra and MRP without using APS, then it will have to be a highly customized solution.This scenario will obviously have a great impact on various business aspects,which is out of scope of this discussion.
- Is it necessary to integrate by using seeded data?How to link new series to EBS?
The Demantra - EBS integration adds two new responsibilities for Demand Management viz. i)Demand Management System Administrator and ii)Demand Analyst.
The System Administrator creates a new user in the E-Business Suite with the relevant responsibility for which the user is automatically created in Oracle Demantra.
The user with "Demand management system Administrator" responsibility can create new series that get added in the Demand management component on creation. This series can then be used as per requirement.
I hope my comments help.Feel free for further discussions.

Shekhar

Splitting of requirements in MRP

Hi Gurus,
Am implementing SOP wherein the monthly demand forecast is loaded as a sales plan and transfered to demand management, followed by a MRP run.
Would like to split the monthly demand into weekly demand in MRP. Is this possible? How?
Am aware that the demand can be easily split in demand management but want this to happen in MRP.
Tarang

Thanks Bhrama,
I know that it can be done in MD62. But then that means am splitting the demand.
Example:
Monthly Rqmts     100
Requirements split into weeks:
Ind Req     25
Ind Req     25
Ind Req     25
Ind Req     25
Now how will the PIRs get consumed?
If the sales order is in between 1st and second week then in case of backward consumption only the 1st weeks PIR will get consumed.
In case if backward and forward consumption selection it will consume the next weeks (period) requirement but what if the requirement is large and will effect the next months planning also?
The rationale of not splitting the demand thus is - Consume the demand - backward consumption 31 days. At the end of the month reorganize the PIR. Thus not effecting the planning of the next month.
Kindly advice if am thinking in the wrong direction.

Demand management planning strategy

Hi there,
I am trying to set up demand management for simple make to stock. I am using standard requirements type LSF which is linked to requirements class 100.(OMP1) The requirements class has a planning indicator (PLNKZ) set to "1" (net requirements planning) in OMPO. This is what I want as we want the warehouse stock to be taken into account when procurement proposals are generated. The planning strategy assigned to the material master has the "1" setting (net requirements planning). However when I run MRP after entering planned independent requirements for LSF (MD61), the purchasing requisitions proposed are just for the independent requirements and ignore warehouse stock. There is a line in the Stock / Requirements list that says "Gross Requirements Planning" Does anyone know where it is picking up "Gross Requirements Planning" instead of Net Requirements Planning (i.e. check what is in stock before creating procurement proposals)
Any assistance is appreciated.
thanks
D

Hi Suhas,
I don't want mixed MRP as such but when I cannot get any procurement proposals (requisitions) when the setting is blank. It may be elsewhere that the procurement proposal is - I am still checking.
However, when I choose "2" for mixed MRP, it does generate requsitions (but gives me the other problem where warehouse stock is not taken into account)
The requirements class 100 has an entry "1" for planning indicator and "1" for requirements category. All other columns are blank at the moment. I am in the process of experimenting with these next.
thanks for your help so far.

Tranfser from demand management to SOP

Hello All,
is it possible to send data from demand management (eg.MD61) to SOP - standard information structure S076 or flexible planning ?
The idea is to put values directly to MD61 and use them later in flexible planning
thanks a lot
KS

Dear,
It is not possible. In sap, the planning cycle will be SOP -> Demand management -> MRP
SOPu2019 is a forecasting tool enabling you to set up sales, production, and other supply chain targets based on existing, future, or historical data. SOP is most suitable for planning finished goods. SOP plans are passed on to Demand Management in the form of independent requirements (MD61), which in turn is fed in to MRP (Material Requirements Planning).
Hope it clear your doubt

Demand management table

Sir,
We are following the process of SOP in REM as follows:-
1) Creation of Product group.
2) Upload the Sales plan for product group
3) Desagregation of products
4) Copy to active version from inactive version
5) Transfer to demand management
we reqire the table for Sales and operation plan and also after transherring to demand management which table is updated. This is required as we are preparing a report for Sales Plan v/s Production plan.
Thanks & Regards,
Nilesh

Demand Management Through SOP

Hello Everyone,
I have a scenario where I receive an 8 week rolling forecast from marketing. This is transferred to production. 2 weeks before actual production the plan is firmed.
I was hoping to implement this using SOP transfer to demand management. I was also planning to use an MRP type with a planning time fence. But am not exactly sure of the best practice to transfer Rough cut plann data to demand management. Do I directly transfer the Rough cut plan to a "requirements plan" version?
If not what would be the best possible solution to run SOP?
Also Please suggest as to any specific configuration settings to be maintained for SOP.
Any help in this regard would be greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,
Aji Kurian Mani

Hi
It depends on at which aggregation level you are receiving the Forecast.
if you are receiving at Plant -Material level. I would advice you to directly upload in to MD61.
SOP is required, if you need to do any forecasting in SAP.
or if you need to publish , analsyse the Historical and Forecasting Values at diffrent Org Levels(Plant, cutomer, Material,Sales org....etc)
using the planning tables you can maintain the Figures at one Level, which gets aggregated automatically.

SOP and transfer to Demand management for MTO material

Hi all,
I have the following situation:
I have a material, a finished goods product with planning strategy 20 Make to order defined in the material master. I enter a sales forecast for the material in SOP in SAPECC (transaction MC87), works fine.
But when I try to release the forecast to Demand Management (MC74), I get the following error message: "No requirements type exists for material 110100 1 in plant 2". I can see that planning strategy 20 MTO does not have any requirement type defined.
But what is the best practice then to forecast on MTO materials (with strategy 20 MTO)?
What I want to do is to bring down the requirements of the MTO material to Long term planning to get a BOM explosion for the components. I realize that I should not start a production plan for the MTO material, but I want to plan the requirements for components several months ahead.
What is the best practice? Should I use a different production strategy? Am I missing config or any fundamental thinking here?
I need to have the material as a MTO strategy, but I want to plan the components.
Please, give me input on this if you have any solution.
Regards,
Lars

Hi Lars,
Here's what you need to do:
1. Instead of pure 20, customize a strategy group that has in it 20 and 10, and attach this strategy group to your material.
2. In MC74 specify requirements type LSF, demand management version, and make sure to uncheck the "active" box (otherwise you will get requirements in the operative system, and not only in LTP).
3. Do the transfer, and include the version in a LTP scenario.

Mario

Release of APO Demand Planning to R/3 Demand Management

Hi All,
Is there a way to release the forecast in Demand Planning in APO to R/3 Demand Management without passing overwriting the historical buckets in R/3. I have created a special data view that does not contain any historical weeks. However, if we are in week 2 of the month, it overwrites week one of the month in Demand Management with a 0 value when we execute the forecast pass to r/3 job. I don't want to overwrite week one and we actually want to keep the old value there, How can we prevent this from being overwritten?
I have created a data view that does not contain any historical buckets and I am using this in the
Regards,
Rumi,

Hi,
For releasing from DP to ECC , you have taken care of:
○ A future planning horizon only
○ A planning buckets profile with one periodicity only.
I assume you are using "Week" bucket , please confirm.
In SAP ECC Demand Management, planned independent requirements are created in the same buckets as those of the data view on which the mass processing job is based.
With above things in mind, it not clear why APO DP release shoud overwrite historical week data, unless you are releasing in monthly buckets rather than weekly buckets.
