Splitting Replenishment Generated PO by Delivery Lead Time

Dear Folks,
When I run replenishment, I would like the auto generated PO to be created based on the replenishment lead time/planned delivery date.
Is that possible?
For example, I have 2 SKU, one with planned delivery time of 2 days and 1 with planned delivery time of 1 day by the same vendor for same plant.
When I do a replenishment run, I would like to have 2 PO created.
Best Regards
JW

Dear folks,
It could be that my original question was not very clear.
In each PO line items, there is this field 'Delivery Date', this date is usually derived from the Planned Delivery Time from the material/article master. I am using SAP retail.
Basically, what I would like to achieve when I run auto-replenishment is:
- different PO created with each PO containing on the items with the same 'delivery date'.
- if an item has a different delivery date from the rest, a separate PO will be created.
Assume that the requirements/demands are already triggered - reorder point etc.
Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you.
Best Regards
JW

Function module to calculate Estimate delivery lead time

Hi Experts,
It's ugrent.
In APO System,
I need a function module to calculate the estimated delivery lead time, The estimate delivery lead time is the time in weeks between the current date and the estimated delivery date. This is rounded up to the next integer value.
Thanks in advance,
Regards
Adil

Hi Vishal,
I've declared two variables
DATA: LDATE(20),
           LTIME(20).
CALL FUNCTION 'GET_SYSTEM_TIME_REMOTE'
IMPORTING
K_DATE        =
K_TIME         =
   L_DATE         = LDATE
   L_TIME          = LTIME
AND IN THE FORM HEADER I'VE GIVEN IT AS,
WA_HEADER-TYP = 'S'.
WA_HEADER-INFO = ': Date'.
WA_HEADER-KEY = LDATE.
APPEND WA_HEADER TO IT_HEADER.
WA_HEADER-TYP = 'S'.
WA_HEADER-INFO = ': Time'.
WA_HEADER-KEY = LTIME.
APPEND WA_HEADER TO IT_HEADER.
STILL IM NOT GETTING WAT ELSE IS REQUIRED ?

Delivery lead time in Sales Order--URGENT

Hi SAP GURUS,
How the Delivery lead time works in Sales Order i.e
"From the time a confirmed Sales order is punched till the time we have delivered the material"
How to confgure to use effectively

When you create sales order, system automatically proposes data based on configuration settings.
1. Check the schedule line proposed by system in sales order. Let's say CP. Go to transaction VOV6 and see if availability check is checked.
2. Check the requirement type proposed by system in sales order. Let's say 041. Go to transaction OVZH and see what requirement class has been assigned to it. Let' say 041.
3. Go to transaction OVZG and see if availability check has been checked for this requirement class 041.
4. Check the shipping point proposed by system in sales order.
Go to transaction OVLZ and check Loading time & pick pack time maintained there for this shipping point. If there is nothing let's say we have 24 hours and 24 hours respectively.
5. Check the route proposed by system in sales order. Let's say route selected is 000003. Go to transaction 0VTC and see Transit duration & Transportation lead times maintained there. Let's say timings maintained are 2 days and 1 days respectively.
Now let's say a customer calls and says he wants a material delivered on Apr 25. Now what the system does is that it does backward scheduling. i.e. it goes backward from delivery date i.e. 25th April. It reduces 3 days for transit time, reduces time taken for loading time, reduces days taken for arranging transport, reduces time taken for pick pack. After calculation it arrives at date Apr 21. Now it checks whether material is available on this date i.e. Apr 21.
If material is available, it confirms delivery date.
Otherwise, if material is not available on Apr 21, it determines date on which material is available. Let's say material is available on Apr 23. Now, system immediately carries out forward scheduling. So it starts calculating from Apr 23 and adds time and dates maintained for picking & packing; transportation lead time, loading time and transit time.
Also note that system takes into account factory holidays, factory timings when it is calculating above. If factory works 24 hours and is closed on Saturday & Sunday, system arrives at date Apr 30. It now confirms delivery date as Apr 30 to customer.
I have given a simple example. There are many other aspects you can configure on scheduling.

Purchase order with transportaion time+replenishtment lead time in PP/DS

The process: Location 0011 buys by supplier 1080 with normal purchase order.
Delivery lead time 30 days of this 20 days transportation time and 10 days replenishment lead time of the supplier. Delivery free on board.
What to do that the date for free on board is in the purchase order.for example.: Beginning November.
And the inbound delivery date end of November in the md04 R3 and product view PP/DS.

Yes 30 days is the total lead time . I am not so good in modelling of FOB in PP/DS.
In R3 we have a not so good solution for FOB. There we have add the transporting time inte the GR Processing Time. This is not so good.
The solution beeing
in the purchase order the date for finish the supplier on board
and in the md04 R3 and product view PP/DS the to arrive in the firm location
kind regards Feth

PO lead time report

Hi Gurus
What report can be run to provide the average time taken from PO creation to Goods reciept? IE how do we measure actual delivery lead time
Thanks in advance
BR

Hello
Thanks for reply.
IF this is not , could you pl let me know the correct procedure and any standard report for measuring the Delivery time for Purcsase Order based on materials.
As per your exnample , why a person should enter the delivery date manually , it should should come by system based on PDLT maintained ..
for tht reason only we are looking to review our materials to update correct PDLT.
thanks..

Info record lead time default

Hey Gurus,
We have a situation in which the business is maintaining planned delivery lead time in the info record as to the material master. There are values in both but we are finding that when running CTM that it is using the planned delivery time populated in the product master. We woudl like CTM to consider using the lead time that is populated in the external procurement relationship first. Is there a setting to change this or is this how the logic should work in APO?
Sincerely,
Kris Kraft

Hi,
There is setting in feild usage:leadtime in tlane. According to information I have even with this setting for scheduling of external procurement will be done according to transportation duration maintained in Tlane in SNP.
You can try with following options-:
1. Maintain Gr processing time including planned delivery time.(Grprocessing time= Actual Gr processing time+Planned delivery time.)
2. There is one SAP note in service market place which gives sample coding to default transportation duration in mode of transport equal to planned delivery time from purchase record while tranfering purchase info record. this will be better option.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Siddharth

Different lead times

hi, we are having different times for shipping lead time, customes lead time, delivery lead time etc. how to map these type of lead time for materials to plan properly. as i know we have only pland delivery time, gr processing time,in-house prod time, pr processing time in mat masters.pls advise how tomap above said lead times for roh materials?

Shipping, delivery and customer lead times are not maintained in PP master data.
Check with your MM/SD Concerned guys to check where they are maintained.

Reg: lot size and replenishment lead time

1. please explain about lot size and replenishment lead time.
2. please also explain about consumption based planing and in steps explain how to perform manual and automatic reorder point(transc code please)

You use the lot-sizing procedure to determine how the system is to calculate the reorder quantity in the planning run.
A lot size defining the lot-sizing procedure is assigned to every material master record applicable to materials planning.
The lot size is defined in Customizing by the combination of the lot-sizing procedure and the lot-sizing indicator.
Three procedures for lot sizing are available:
o static lot-sizing procedures
o period lot-sizing procedures
o optimizing lot-sizing procedures
You use the lot-size indicator to define the procedure.
The following parameters are also available for controlling the lot-sizing procedure:
o Short-term and long-term lot size
   You can split the lot-sizing procedure into a short-term and a long-term period. This means that you can select one lot-sizing procedure in the near future and a different one in the distant future.
You define the periods in the section of the screen entitled "End of the short-term period/start of the long-term period".
   The valid from date of the long-term lot size area is defined via:
   - a periodicity
   - a number of periods
   The beginning of the long-term period is calculated by taking today's date and adding the number of periods in the future; the long-term planning period then starts on the next complete period.
   Note
For materials that are planned using the short and long-term lot size,
   it is recommended that you define a maximum MRP period. Defining the
   MRP period has the effect that materials after a certain period are
   included in planning even if no changes relevant to the planning run
   have occurred. This avoids a situation where order proposals created
   with the long-term lot size move into the short-term period because no
   changes relevant to MRP have occurred for the material.
   You define the maximum MRP period in the step, "Define maximum MRP
   period". A material that is planned on a regular basis should also be
   provided with an MRP type that contains the indicator for regular MRP.
o Scheduling indicator
   For period lot sizes, you can use the indicator for scheduling to
   determine whether the availability date;
o is to be set to the first requirements date in the period
o or is to be set to the beginning of the period
o is to be set to the end of the period
o or whether the period start represents the beginning of the planned
   order and the period end represents the availability date (repetitive
manufacturing)
Interpretation of the delivery times
For the lot-sizing procedure, you can also define whether the period
start is to be interpreted as the delivery date or as the availability
date using the indicator, "interpretation of the calendar times".
NOTE
The indicators, Scheduling and Interpr.deliv.times are mutually
exclusive.
Indicator for the splitting quota
For the quota arrangements, you can determine whether the requirements
quantities are to be distributed to several items, that is, whether
they are to be split. With the splitting quota arrangement,
requirement quantities are not simply allocated to the smallest quota
rating. Instead, they are distributed among various sources using the
following formula:
Quantity for source of supply X = Quota of source X * reqmts quantity
Sum of all quotas
Overlapping indicator
The overlapping indicator along with the cycle time in the material
master record are used to split the planned orders into several
partial quantities whereby the in-house production time overlaps by
the cycle time.
Lot-sizing procedure for make-to-order production
In make-to-order production, you can use the indicator, Lot size for
make-to-order production to determine whether,
the order quantity is to be calculated using the exact lot size
the order quantity is to be calculated using the exact lot size and
the system is also to take the rounding quantity or the minimum and
maximum lot size into account
the order quantity is to be calculated using the lot-sizing procedure
defined for the short-term area
Maximum stock level variant
The system only displays the Maximum stock level variant field in the
lot-sizing procedure, Replenishing to maximum stock level. The
indicator only has an effect in connection with reorder point planning
taking external requirements into account and in connection with
material requirements planning and controls how the system calculates
lot sizes.

Total replenishment lead time calcuation

Experts,
how does SAP determine the replenishment lead time for a part under the following circumstances,
- purchase part (ProcType F)
- two PIR for two vendors with diffrent delivery times per vendor.
- Source list has no fixed vendor
- quote arragement in place.
in MD04 I see the correct split acc. to quote arrangement, but currently I have the effect that the replenishment lead time for this part changes form delivery time of vendor A to delivery time of vendor B from time to time. Unfortunatly I can not see a pattern in behind.
Who can explain this behaviour ?
Thanks in advance
Jörg

Hi,
- purchase part (ProcType F)
Depending on the setup done in OPPQ (push button - external procurement), the lead times will be read from Info record first if not existing then from material master or directly from material master.
- two PIR for two vendors with diffrent delivery times per vendor.
If the vendor is fixed, then the lead time from the fixed vendor is selected. If quota based, then from the vendor to whom the quota is allocated to.
- Source list has no fixed vendor
lead time from mtl master.
- quote arragement in place.
Lead time as per info rec of vendor selected based on the quota arrangement.
Now all the above is theory... so take some examples in your sandbox & do some testing to see it n revert if you face any issues.
Regards,
Vivek

Replenishment Lead Time

I am going through TSCM60 and am facing a problem understanding the concept of Replenishment Lead time. I will explain what problem I am facing grasping the concept.
As can be seen, Replenishment lead time according to the manual:
Only the inward and outward movements that take place within the replenishment lead time are included in this check.
Now this seems in contradiction to checking the box: Include Sales requirements because this considers the requirement from the already made sales orders. On the other hand the RLT only the time till the product (from inhouse production or external procurement) becomes available.
For example,
For an already confirmed Sales Order requires a Material Availability Date of 7 October for a delivery on 10 October. Now, an order comes along later that requires a delivery on 8th October and hence a MAD of 5th October. The problem is that if using the RLT, the required MAD is to be provided to the system for the latter Sales Order (5th Oct. MAD), the full amount of the material is not available on 7th October for the former Sales Order.
So what is the system going to do if both RLT and Include Sales requirements are being employed?
The graph in the manual makes it look as if the system is going to commit the full amount for the 5th October MAD and snub the customer requiring the delivery on 10th by sending him/her the remaining material i.e. a partial delivery on requested date of delivery.

Hello,
Thank you for the appreciaton.
Yes. Your understanding is correct - that it is generally advisable to not activate it but it can be activated for in-house production and materials that are easily available.
For your question regarding points:
For it's use in real life - You just appreciated me & that is the genuine example of use of points in real life. It is more about feeling of satisfaction - to give back something to the forum from which I have got so much. I remember of so many instances in past when client was bombbarding me with issues & I did not had ready solutions. SDN Forums & it's memers have always helped me during those times.
I don't know whether I am selfless or not... but one thing I can say for sure, contributing to SDN forums has help me a lot in learning SAP SD. Also there are many other senior contributors in the forum who are really selfless since last couple of years...
Thanks again,

Sales Order - How to make Delivery Date default to Lead Time?

My scenario is this:
- We have items that go thru several production stages before it is a finished item that can be sold.
- Each production item has its lead time loaded.
- I would like the delivery date of a finished item to equal the sum of the productions items lead times.
I dont want my sales people to have to look at calendars are calculate how long until something is ready for delivery.
I would like my sales orders delivery date to default to a date that sales people can use.
Is this possible? I would think this would be part of core functionality but I do not see this.
Thank you,
John Sefton

John,
Knowing what Items are added to the Sales Order at the time of entry would not be possible without SDK since the line level details are stored internally in temp location.
Only on Submitting the Sales Order would it be possible to calculate the date.
Let me know how you would want to move on this

Replenishment lead time & Scheduling Agreements - Please help

Hi,
I have a few questions & issues in regards to Replenishment lead time & Scheduling Agreements.
1.     Where are stock requirements & Replenishment lead times configured?
2.     What is a stock/requirements list?
3.     What is Replenishment lead time in MD02/MD04?
4.     Why do negative supply values appear under replenishment lead time in MD02/MD04?
5.     What are the differences between MD02 & MD04?
6.     How do you get to the following screen, since I canu2019t get here from MD02 or MD04 (missing buttons and Replenishment lead time information):
http://i34.tinypic.com/9hl9hz.jpg
Please help. This is very important.
Thanks,
Laura

Hi Laura,
The RLT can be set in the Masters Materials.MMR and Also in the Documnet Type Configuration.
But as per SAP standard Procedure the Prority will be the document type.
That means the RLT given in the Order document will overseed the RLT given in the MMR.
Go to material master and select MRP3 view. There see what is maintained for "Strategy group". Now go to OVZG, select this Requirement Class and tick the field "Rq" against this.
Now go to OVZH, select your Requirement Type and ensure that the above Requirement Class is assigned to your Requirement Type.
Now create a sale order and check in MD04.
Hope ethis helps u..

Total replenish lead time

Hi gurus,
anyone can explain why this field (total replenish lead time) is designed to enter manually instead of system automatically calculate from BOM for a manufactured part? and how does it work according to the following scenario:
product X is produced in plant=1000 from material A and B (both A and B are procured externally for plant 1000, to simplify the case)
in plant 1000, PO processing time=1day
A: planned del.time=3 days, GR. processing time=1 day.
B: planned del.time=5 days, GR. processing time=1 day.
to make X need 2 operation: 1st operation need 1 day to assemble A and B together, after assembling, 2nd operation need 1 day to paint, 1 day to dry
what's the total replenish lead time we should enter for X?
thanks,
cookie

Dear Cookie
3.if it's only for availability check, does that mean the MRP would not be affected by this field, then what would be the lead time feed into MRP? what's the relationship between MRP and availability check? why they use 2 different sets of data?
1) MRP will not take this field into Account for Calculating Dates
2) MRP for in-house materials - in-house production time & GR Procesing time ( Lead time )
3 ) For external Procured materials - PR processing time , Planned delevery time & GR Processing time
4) MRP Net Req. Calculation Concept is different from Availbility check Concept

Availablity Check in Sales Order with Total Replenishment Lead Time

Dear PP Consultants,
This is regarding the TRLT field functionality during availablity check of Sales Order.
I understand the TRLT field is defined manually in Material Master MRP-3 view as the sum of the longest lead time of raw material, in-house-production time and floats.
If during the availablity check of Sales Order, the raw material which is having the longest lead time is already available in stock, can the system calculate the TRLT dynamically and propose the delivery date in sales order only based on in-house production time??
Is there any setting that can be made so that during availability check of Sales Order, the system considers the stock of raw materials and then propose the confirmed dates?
Your early respose is much appreciated. Thanks a lot in advance for your valauble suggestions.
Thanks,
Kishore

Hi,
The RLT is not dynamic, and is not related to the stock situation of the components.
It's only purpose is to give an estimated availability date for the finished material (sold) when no better information is present (like a procurement element).
The only way I know to get an availability date taking into account the availability of components, is the assemble-to-order scenario. In this scenario (MTO!), a production order is created automatically during the creation of the sales order. The system can then use the production order features like scheduling and availability check of components to propose the availability date for the finished product.
Besides that, you can get much more complex solutions for ATP using APO's ATP engine.

Mario
