STO issue in MRP Run

Dear All Experts,
I am not from SD module but i have a query related to MRP Run. In our plant we have STO and it uses the 641 movement type. As i know During MRP Run STO is considered in net requirement calculation. It is the standard process. But in one of the plant STO is not being considered in net requirement calculation.
In MD05 it is showing the requirement but it not increases the requirement. So what could be the possible reason.
Please answer it. It is very important for me.
Regards,
Saurabh

Dear Experts,
This is the situation in which 4th line we can see that STO having requirement of 2. But available stock is not reduced by 2.
And Dear Srinu S in this case delivery is not happened.

Saurabh

MRP issue after MRP run

Hello Everyone,
We have a issue in the MRP process. When we run MRP it creates PR for additional quantity then needed not considering the Purhcase Order that exisits already. Below example will explain you in detail.
Product A Plant ABC
Stock 4
Product A safety stock = 8
Purchase Order creatred = 3
So when MRP run it should create another Purchase requistion for Quantity 1 (4-8+3 =1). But it is creating a Purhcase Requistion for Qty 4 which means it is not looking into the Purhcase Order Qty 3 that is coming in. There is no minimum lot size or any rounding rule.
Please can you tell me if there is a settings/config where we allow/not allow the Purchase Order to be considered during MRP run. I think it should be a plant specific config as for our other plant I dont see this happening.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks

hi,
Few checks:
1. Check rescheduling horizon...
2. check the plannning key set while running the MRP....is it NETCH...try with NETPL or NEUPL if doing for first time...

Intercompant STO working during MRP run.

Dear Experts,
How intercompany stock transfer works during MRP run?
I mean if one company is purchaser and other is vendor and purchaser company's planned delivery time is 10 days and replenishment time in other company is 3 day then will system consider these two times in creating purchase requisition in first plant ( in MD04)?

Hi,
Say your purchaser is plant A, vendor is plant B. STO can make by spl.procurement key 40 in MRP2 view in plant A.
If you create requirement in plant A, system will create planed order for that material.In plant A, system will consider only planned delivery time of 10 days.
In plant B, system will create dep requirement. suppose if stock is not available that time system will consider to replinishment the material as 3 days.
This 3 days will not consider in Plant A.

STO Not to be considered in MRP Run in MTS

Dear All,
We are facing the following problem in MRP run in MTS scenario when
there are STOs in Plant.
We have 2 Plants one is production Plant (Say A) and other is Non
production Plant (Say B) from where only Deliveries will be made.
Now after final material will be produced in Plant A it will be routed
through Stock transport order (STO) to plant B.
So there will be always STOs in Plant A which will be created in Plant B.
Now we are using Strategy 11 (Gross req. Planning) for Final FERT material.
In MRP if we have PIR of 100 Qty. and STO of 50 Qty. system is creating
the Planned order of 150 quantity which is a normal system behavior.
Now our requirement is that it should not include STO in Planning (MRP Run).
Pls. Suggest.
Regards,
Vinayak.

Hi,
Go to OPJJ,
In that select your requirement type, and click details...
there is a tab,IN/OUTward movement.. In that deselect the box for incl.rel.order.reqs..
If you dont want the deliveries to be taken into consideration, then uncheck thebox for include deliveries..
hope this solves..

MRP Run error " Schedule Lines not generating properly"

Hi Folks,
I am facing a typical issue with MRP Run.
Every time when I am running the MRP for a particular material I have made settings such that Schedule lines to be generated by maintaining the Source list and MRP relevancy as 2 in source list. Also I have fixed the vendor. Now my problem is I am getting Schedule lines for first run and Combination of Purchase requests and Schedule lines or only PRs for the next MRP run.. This is keep on repeating in such as way that the planning is shifting as said above for subsequent MRP Run.
Note that the initial settings during MD02 remain same for all run.
I want only schedule lines to be generated but not PR.
Pls advise and provide input where the wrong might be.
Quick responce would be appreciated.
Regards
Shash

Dear shash,
Check with What are the MRP control Parameters values which you are using for the MRP run.
In MD02, For Deleivery schedules run with value 3 - That's - Schedule lines.
The other options are 1 No schedule lines
2 Schedule lines in the opening period.
check with this & revert back.

Project Based MRP run issue

Hi Friends,
There is one issue reg. Project Based MRP Run as below :
We are running MRP through MD51 (Project based MRP run). For this we are assigning FG material code under respective WBS Element which generates Network reservation with movement type 281Q which is base of MRP run in MD51. After MRP run we get planned order generation and then convert it to Production order and execute Production Order to receive Project Stock after GR.
After receiving Project stock and then selling it through Post Goods Issue through SD cycle, project stock is consumed but network reservation is not getting closed which results in again generation of planned order if MRP is run again.
I need your valuable inputs if we are missing any configuration setting which can set Final issue indicator in reservation while Posting Goods Issue (PGI) in SD because FI indicator checking will only ensure reservation doesnu2019t take part in planning again.
Your earliest reply will be highly appreaciated.
Regards,
Tejas

Hi Vivek,
Thanks for your reply. Actually my issue has got resolved the way suggested by Mario Adler.
Hi Mario,
Thanks for your solution. PGI through Project is working fine for me.
Hi Krishna,
Follow the procedure as suggested by Mario which will resolve your issue.
Once again thank you all for spending your precious time to respond my query.

MRP-Exclude STO document type from MRP Run

Hi,
I want to exclude STO document type from MRP run, so that STO Open qty will not be considered as open qty while doing MRP.
I have checked below settings but didn't worked.
1. In OMI8 - I have unchecked "Stock in Transfer"
2. SPRO->Materials Management->Consumption-based Planning->Planning->Define torage Location MRP per plant
     Here I have excluded ONE storage location from MRP and same storage location has been used in the STO.
Can anyone know how to resolve this ?
Regards,
Rakesh

Rakesh,
Yes, they will not be relevant for MRP. Neither will anything else in that storage location. However, the setting is not in configuration, but in the material master (MRP4 tab).
The configuration setting you mentioned has no impact on existing material masters, it is only used to determine the default settings for newly created storage location entries for a material/plant..
You can set a particular material/plant/stlocn to be irrelevant for MRP. This relevancy is irrespective of document type, it can be a STO, a purchase req, a sales order, a production order, or it could be stock (inventory) - all supply and demand in this material/plant/stlocn are excluded from MRP processing.
MRP relevancy of storage location is set at the material/plant/storage location level in the material master.
If you do not wish to exclude a storage location from MRP, then you will have to find another way to make your STOs Irrelevant for MRP. As I said earlier, STOs (like any other Purchase orders that are configured to process stock ), are generally considered to be relevant for MRP.
If you were a client, I would suggest that you rethink your business model that drives this requirement.
If the business model cannot be altered, and the storage location solution is unacceptable, then you will be stuck with a customized solution.

MRP Run - Planning file entry Issue

Dear All,
We are facing one problem in MRP Run. We run MRP in the background for a plant (MDBT) System is not creating planned order for few component. I have checked all relevant setting. I found that planning file entry is missing. I would like to know that how system can miss the material? How system creates & delete planning file entry ? I have some data related to this.
Last MRP run date is 22-04-09
PIR changed date on 30-04-09
MDRE Run on the 30-.4-09 at night.
MRP Run on 02-05-09 at night.
Problem reported that no planned order for the material on 07-05-09.
We have huge number of material so its difficult to check all material individually whether MRP run happend or not ?
Please let me know the possible reason for this.
Thanks & Regards
Kundan Kumar

Dear,
If you carte materaial or uplod materail before activation plant for MRP this may be the cause for this.
Planning File creates all the materials relevant for the planning run.
The planning run and the scope of the planning run (which materials are planned in which planning run) are controlled by the planning file.
For planning file entry use the following transactions,
MD20 : Create planning file entry
MD21 : Display planning file entry
MDAB : Set up planning file entry in background
MDRE : Check planning file entry Please run this in it will solve your problem
All materials assigned with MRP are automatically entered in planning file entry.
Depends on changes in material planning or in proposal , system will create planning file entry.
When MRP run system will consider only which materials having entry in above contents of planning file entry. After MRP run system delete the planning file entry. And again material gone the changes like GI GR on any other demand then system generate planning file enty again.
Hope it will help you to understand basic concept.

Purchase order status in MRP run

Hi Gurus,
I have a doubt in MRP run.
While doing the MRP run, can there be any open PO s or is it mandatory to close them.
Can you also please suggest me on how to run the MRP.

Hi,
MRP Run
Purpose
The Material Requirements Planning (MRP) function enables you to plan material requirements for complex manufacturing processes. You use the MRP Wizard to create and run MRP scenarios. The MRP Wizard generates recommendations for the production and purchasing orders required to produce the final product on time and in the required quantity. You then use these recommendations to create production and purchase orders in the Order Recommendation Report.
The order recommendation cannot be issued for requirements that happened in the past (before the present day). Since the purchasing or production process cannot be completed in time, the MRP does not mix the real past data with new recommendations for the same period.
Prerequisites
●     You have defined the
○     Planning system
○     Procurement method
○     Order mutliple
○     Minimum order
○     Lead time
See also: Item Master Data, Planning Data Tab.
●     You have set the time interval between orders. See also: Define Inventory Cycles.
●     You have defined the appropriate items as non-production bills of materials (if required). See also: Item Master Data, General Tab.
●     You have defined default warehouses. See also: Define Warehouses.
●     You have defined forecasts. See also: Forecasts.
●     You have selected the Consume Forecast option to make the system exclude existing sales orders from the forecast. If this is not selected, the forecast considers existing sales orders as an additional requirement. See also: Sales Order.
●     You have set the planning definitions. If you chose Consume Forecast, you have defined the consumption method, days forward and days backward. See also: General Settings, Inventory Tab.
Process Flow
       1.      Start the MRP Wizard.
       2.      Create a new MRP scenario or select an existing one. (See also: MRP Wizard: Select New or Existing Scenario.)
       3.      Define the parameters for your scenario, such as the planning horizon and item details.
You also choose your display preferences. (See also: MRP Wizard: Scenario Details.)
       4.      Define the data sources for requirements that you want to include in your MRP scenario.
For example, you define whether you want to consider the existing stock or the minimum stock level. You can also include a predefined forecast. (See also: MRP Wizard: Data Source.)
       5.      Save the scenario or run it.
After you run the scenario, the system displays the MRP Results.
If there are red figures in the result table, solve the problem and re-run the MRP.
       6.      Analyze the MRP results. You can display the final stock quantity before the MRP run or after it.
       7.      Save the recommendations and exit the MRP Wizard.
Result
After completing the MRP Wizard, you still need to create the purchase and production orders in accordance with the MRP recommendations. See also: Order Recommendation Report.
Hope this will help.

Open Purchase Orders not considered as requirement for MRP Run

Hi ,
We are facing a issue of Open Purchase orders not appeared in Stock requirements list and also it is not considered as requirement for MRP Run against reservation.
As aresult for a reservation demand of 10 units we are ending with Open POs 10 units and a additional planned order 10 units.
Material Type : ERSA
MRP Type : PD (or VB)
Lot size : EX ( HB if MRP Type is VB)
Could you please throw some light to correct our settings to MRP to consider Open POs?
Saravanan

Can you check to see if there is a re-order point set up for this materia? That could be causing the problem too.

Production orders not to be considered during MRP run

Dear SAPeers,
i want to know how to ensure that open production orders are not considered during the MRP run.
the following is the scenario.
PIR for march after MRP run creates a planned order. this planned order is converted to production order. now this production order is processed but not completely confirmed and TECOed after a certain quantity has been produced.
now we delete the old PIR and create a new PIR in the next month. now we revoke the TECO status of the production order and run MRP. I want to know how to avoid MRP from considering the open production order and create planned order for the complete PIR quantity.
Thanks and Regards
Srinivasan

Srini,
what i am worried is shortfall of raw materials in case they were to open the production order in the current month after the planning has been done. how do we allocate raw materials for both the plan as well as the open production order?
Okay, you presumably had RM available for all of your production orders (and those RM were balanced by the reservations from the production orders). Now, you TECO the production order. In effect, any un-issued RM are now released and freely available for other orders/planned orders. Now you plan the following month. Those RM that were freed can and will be used for the new plan. Odd business process, but OK. Now, you re-open the production orders, and, yes, you will have a shortage unless you run RM MRP again. This is, ah, inconsistent with any business process I have ever seen.
The question that jumps to mind is, "Why re-open the old production orders at all? Alternatively, why were they TECOd in the first place?" If one knows that he intends to complete an order in production, one does not normally TECO the order, and then later reverse the TECO.
With respect to my name, I must unfortunately keep a low profile. Ever since I escaped from the mental institution, the thought-police have been hunting for me. I do not wish to be the recipient of any further electroshock 'treatments'.

Consideration of stock of discontinued FG or trading material during MRP Run

There is an functionality of follow up material for component. I would like to know if there is any similar option available for finished goods or trading materials.
I am doing procurement planning for externally procured Trading materials. Now my previous material A is being replaced by material B. Therefore all the planned independent requirement is available in system only for B. But still there is some stock available for material A. How can it be considered during MRP run for material B.
Example,
Material A:
On Hand Stock = 100
Planned Independent Req. = 0
Material B:
On Hand Stock = 300
Planned Independent Req. = 1000
In this case if we run MRP for material B, how we ask system to plan Purchase Requisitions for 600 instead of 700 for material B, considering stock of material A.

Hello
Please refer to the following SAP note:
43636 - Discontinued parts
This note provides a detailed explanation of the system standard design of the usage of discontinued parts with material requiremenst planning and the most common questions about this issue.
The following information is provided on this note regarding the PIRs:
2. Planned independent requirements and forecast requirements are not redirected.
Explanation: Planned independent requirements after the effective-out date are not redirected but are provided with an exception message in the MRP list stating that they cannot be included in the availability check. Planned independent requirements and forecast requirements are therefore displayed in the MRP list and in the stock/requirements list. However, they do not influence planning

The delivery schedule lines don't get created automatically on MRP run.

Hi All,
The delivery schedule lines don't get created automatically on MRP run for subcontracting material. I have maintained source list as follow eg.
Valid from | Valid to | Vendor | Porg | PPI | Agreement | Item | Fix | MRP | MRP area
02.11.2009 | 31.12.2999| XYZ | XY01| |AA0000XYZE |10 | X |2 | ABC
Could you please help me about this issue
Thanks in advance.

Hi Amit,
Please ensure the value of Special procurement key in the MRP2 view for the material. It should be maintained as 30 - subcontracting.
Thanks and Regards,

Schedule Lines are not getting generated after MRP run.

Hi,
I have an issue where a SA exists for the parent material with item category L (subcontracting). The parent material has a valid BOM and some sub components as well. I see in CS03 that BOM is fine with validity dates for the parent material. A valid source list also exists for the parent material where SA is present as the source of supply with MRP indicator as 2. Now when i run MRP for the parent material using MD02 (NETCH), with indicators as below:
Create pur.req. 2
Schedule lines 3
Create MRP list 1
Planning mode 1
i don't see any schedule lines in MD04. Instead it creates a PR that too without any source of supply.
In master data for the parent material MRP type is PD with Procurement type F and special procurement key 30. I have checked and every thing seems to be fine still MRP run doesn't create schedule lines.
Any help is appreciated. I can give more info if required.
Thanks.

Dear Rakesh,
Scheduling agreement:An outline agreement against which materials are procured at a series of
predefined points in time over a certain period.
1.For this you have to first use ME31L for creating scheduling agreement and then ME38 for maintaining scheduling agreemnet
schedule.
2.Ensure in the source list after maintaining the material,vendor combination the setting for MRP relevancy is set to 2 - Record
relevant to MRP,Schedule line generated automatically.
Moreover you have to use value 3 for delivery schedule line which is one of the MRP control parameter while taking MRP run.
So for the materials for which scheduling agreement exists,schedule lines will be generated.
Check and revert back.
