Stock allocation

Sales in my client is segmentised. Say there are 6 segments. It is being divided using sales groups. I want to allocate the monthly production forecast to each sales segment. Hw can it be handled in SAP???????
Eg: Monthly forecast for the month of March is 100. I want this to be allocated to 6 sales segments, say segment A 30, Segment B 20, etc.
Now while creating the sales order system should give the error message if a segment exceeds its limit. Say for segment A, if the qty exceeds 30, it should give the error message.
Pls advise?

Hi;
This can be done using Product Allocation. We need to create a Prod. Alloc material and assign this in the Material Master.
When we do this allocation we can drill down to various levels and viz, Sales Groups, Cus. Grps etc.
Refer T.codes MC94, this is where you will create the allocations.

Stock allocation in sales order must be in BIN level

Hi Experts,
Currently stock allocation in sales order base on plant level, so it gave us wrong message (miss leading) when the customer ask about their order status....., therefore we need the stock allocation in sales oder after item already in BIN,
Please help me to knp what are all the setting s to be checked and how to make it product allocation.
Thanks

Storage bin (WM) is deterimned in delivery (during picking), not in SO order.
I'm afraid your requirement is not possible in standard system (w/o development).
Storage bin defined where exactly your stock is in your SLoc - why do you need this information in SO, what is the sense of it?

Make to Stock - Sales order stock allocation

Hello Experts,
In the make to stock scenario, how do I allocate certain stock to a sales Order? For example, with my company, there could be 30 items in a sales order. All item stocks are not available at the time of Order placed. As we make the stock, we want the stock to be allocated to this sales order. Is there any way to do that?
Please help.
Thanks

Hi,
As my understanding, there is no such assignment function to MTS sales order in standard SAP.. The possible solutions I ve touched include..
1, 'convert' MTS to MTO.. It requires that you can change the item category in sales order.. Once stock for one item is fulfilled.. Change the item category in sales order from MTS to MTO and move the corresponding stock from normal stock to sales order stock via 413..
2. Rely on the SD ATP logic..if your product categories are not so many.. The tipical ATP configration is that for sales order, the ATP scope includes stock, production order, purchase order..etc and ATP checking scope for DN is only against on-hand stock.. ATP checking and/or rescheduling for Sales orders gives out a sequency of confirmed delivery date, meaning, all the sales orders are queued for deliverying in system based on the ATP status.. DNs need to be created strictly according to the confirmed delivery date in sales order.. This way actually raises a very high management requirement to business..
3.If you use batch management, you can also consider 'batch determination' for this assignment..
4,In one of my previous project, they use 'consignment process' for such MTS assignment.. Such assignment business in that client is not a normal process and it is only applicable for some VIP customers.. If the stock is not enough to fulfill all the demand in the sales order, they create a special consignment fill-up order to 'delivery the goods on hand to customer consignment stock', while warehouse places special label on these goods when they 'PGI' the consignment fill up delivery.. This way ensures that the goods can not be withdrawed by other Sales order and/or reservations..

Back order stock allocation?

Hi all
How can we find back order list? And if we want to allocate stock to that that back order and close it how can we do?
Plz help.

Hi ahmed
Go to back order processing (V_RA) or you can use rescheduling (V_V2) , enter the material , then you will get the list of orders.
Now if you want to allocate the stock to some other order then make the stock as zero which are in the backorder for the particular order. and assign that quantity to the next sales order which you want. In this way you can allocate
Hope this helps you

Stock allocation at the time of reservation

dear all,
I have a doubt regardingReservation. Please let me know how to achieve this scenario.
SCENARIO:
Once the reservation is created, Sytem has to block the unrestricted Quantity, system will not allow to use the reserved stock to other order or goods movement.
Regards,
Sundaresan.E.V

Hello
sev
if u want to reseve the unrestricted stock for the reservation it should be a special customer stock so if u run MRP for soles order then only this unrestricted stock will get reserved for the order, so try to run MRP for ur sales order, then in this case ur special stock indicator S become 1 & ur unrestricted stock will get reserved for that order.
Thanks & Regards

Stock allocation for sales orders with batch job

Hi Friends
We have a batch job to allocate stock for sales orders which runs every week , currently this batch job is meant for plant 1000 with availability check procedure Z1 .
I need to incorporate for same batch job plant 1000 with availability check procedure Z2
Just I need to know that there is any potential impact and it causes any problem ?
Thanks In Advance
Rusheek

Hi,
Check what difference is between procedure Z1 and procedure Z2. As we cant see this, you will have to analyze what Z1 was doing and what Z2 is expected to do. Broadly speaking this is preety subjective to your project.
You analyze and try to find out the impacts. If needed take help of abaper.

Stock On Hand vs Stock Allocated Report

I know that both of these can be found in one report for a single item with MD04.

I have asked my superiors but they say it can't be done.

Stock allocation in Sales Order

Hello Experts,
Can we allocate any specific batch # or Serial # to a customer in the Sales Order ?
Help required please!

Like I said, for Batch numbers on the SO, in the quantity field press Ctrl + Tab. The Batch/Serial no screen will pop up (if managed by batch/ser no). At the bottom, in the Quantity field, enter the required qty and press the > botton to move it to the other part of the screen. Click Update and add the SO. Your Item Master Data must be managed by Serial or Batch numbers. For Serial numbers, use a Formatted Search.
That's all you need to do.

Dear
For MTO scinario , any depedent will be either having Account assingement PR or it will pick up the speciall stock (E) based on the Individaul and Cllective Indicator as 1 in MRP4 view .It will never getting reservaed from un-allocated stock ( i beieve u r talking abou Un-restrited stcok ) .This is a standrad behaviour of the MTO cycle in SAP system .
As you have mentioned , that you are using planning startegy 20 -MTO and also you want depdents (SFG and Compoenets in SFG) to be from un-allocated stock .In that case you should not use Planning strategy 20 and also assing Indviaul and Collective Indicator as 2 or blank .It will be purely MTS and you can have sales order with item categoery TAN .
So please keep Ind/Collective indicator as 2 in MRP4 and try
Hope this helps

How to do the hard allocation of stocks to a cuatomer/group.

Hi All,
We are live on ECC 6.0 (IS Retail)
Business wants to allocate some stocks of certain material to a particular customer/customers group (customer chain) so that when customer places an order for the article it will always be available.
The material is also purchased by other customers on an as and when basis. The reserved element of stock is not available to other customers. When the customer for whom it is reserved places an order the stock should be automatically confirmed for that sales order
We have configured the product allocation process, but the limitation of this process are:
u2022Product allocation just specifies a maximum number for an object.This
must be maintained at client level i.e if you just want to maintain for
one chain code (group of customers), you still have to maintain for all
chain codes in all the sales areas for the object (irrespective of
whether you want to or not, at least using the masking character)
u2022Unless the maximum level is reached, orders will still be confirmed on
first-come-first serve basis. i.e there is no hard allocation; if there
is shortage, other customers can take the article though you might have
specified a "maximum number" for customerXXX and customerXXX might not
get the article. As said earlier, the check is "if the customer has
exceeded his quota!"
u2022Our requirement is for a kind of "hard allocation" which is almost
impossible to achieve using Product allocation.
We have configured consignment fill up process also, but the limitation is the fill up is for a particular customer,we cannot do it for customer chain (group of customers)
Please share any ideas to overcome the above issues to achieve the hard stock allocation.

Thanks for your reply Mauryan,
Could you please explain the process a bit (Product allocation with Back order processing). Below is my business process.
There are 5 major customers and I want to allocate stock for one particular customer. for example, total unrestricted stock is 1000 cases, from that I want to allocate 300 cases to customer A and I should be able to invoice 300 cases to this customer as an when the order comes, no other customer is allowed to consume that allocated stock, even after the customer order quantity for other 4 customers are more than 700.
Thanks & Regards,

Pre-Allocated Stock - Auto Transfer Order

I am looking at implementing a stock allocation process, but it looks to be conflicting with the auto transfer order process that we are using in receiving.
The allocation process is working fine, but as soon as I want to use an auto transfer order creation process, I get a failure message and the TO does not create.
Is there a way to create the TO based on the allocation in the background without any message errors?
Thank-you

can it be that you try to achieve something with this functionality for which this fuction is not designed?
Preallocated stock is an exception to normal business, and the user tells this exception to SAP by maintained the table.
So SAP knows about an exception and can act accordingly and e.g. pick the material directly from receiving area, and does not wait until all stock is putaway.

Plsql procedure to distribute stock

I'm writing a procedure to distribute stock to n no.of mills from n no.of warehouses for n no.of products.
To do this I first fill the stock upto 1 days worth of stock for all the mills and then upto n days worth of stock
until it reaches max stock level.
my procedure is like :
cursor c1 to loop through n no. of products
cursor c2 to loop through n days
cursor c3 to loop through n mills
cursor c4 to allocate from n number of warehouses
this looping works fine until 1 days worth of stock is assigned but I have problem with the cursor c3
where I check for the condition stock allocated = max stock then exit. it exits for all the mills but I need to fill upto max for the other mills.
any help is much appreciated.

Use analytical SQL functions. These pack more flexibility and power into a single statement, that what you can code in PL/SQL using a 100 statements.
The fundamental rule for processing database data is: Maximise SQL. Minimise PL/SQL.
In other words, do not use an "inferior" language like PL/SQL and reinvent SQL language functionality in it. The result will not perform as fast as doing it in SQL. The result will not scale at all, unlike SQL.
Stop treating SQL as a mere I/O layer for reading data (using cursor loop fetching) and writing data. SQL is the most sophisticated and advanced language to use for crunching database data. Other languages like PL/SQL and Java and .Net, addresses other challenges - and none of these can rival the SQL language at what it does best.
