Supplier Processing Lead Time with ASCP Unconstrained Plan

Hi All,
Is it possible for unconstrained plan to consider supplier lead time constrained which we define in ASL?
I have defined an Unconstrained Plan & the plan is not considering Item Level , ASL Lead times & generating the planned Orders to meet demand due dates by compressing the Lead time.
Constraint option is not checked in plan options.
Appreciate your advise on this issue.
Regards,
Pranay Saxena

Hi Pranay,
An unconstrained plan cannot have ANY constraint.
So it is not possible to have just the supplier lead time as constrained.
Alternatively, if that is what is your requirement, you may run a constrained EDD plan with just the material constraints enabled and the "Enforce Purchasing Lead Time" Flag checked.
If the supplier capacity is NOT set.. it will be treated like infinite..
This way you will force the engine to respect the lead times from ASL and acheive a near unconstrained plan.
Another alternative is use constrained plan as explained above and set the profile MSO: Lead Time Control to Do not Violate Minimum processing LT... in this case even the processing LTs for the MAKE items are also respected.
Hope that helps.

Mohan Balaji

  • Incorrect Processing lead time showing in ASCP exception

    Hi All,
    We have a buy Item say TEST01 which is used in two Different organization A and B and its processing lead time at item level and ASL it 10 for Org A and 111 for Org B,
    However issue is when we run collection plan for Org A and check for ASCP exception for item TEST01 for Org A its processing lead time is coming as 111,
    Could you please help me with this.
    Regards

    Are you using Global or Local ASL because only global are supported. Plus do you see any demand pushed out because of a long lead time?
    Also can show the screenshot of the lead times both at item level and asl level for all the orgs.
    Thanks,

  • Impact of not defining Processing Lead time at ASL

    Hi All,
    We have a scenario where we have defined Global ASLs for different Orgs with Same supplier site due to this ASCP is considering incorrect Lead time,
    So as to get the correct Lead time we are planning to remove Processing Lead time from ASL so that ASCP will consider correct Lead time from Item level,
    I wanted to know is there any other impact of disabling Processing lead time at ASL Level.

  • How to consider capacity constrain in ASCP unconstrain plan

    Is it possible to feed available capacity (Resource & machine) to ASCP unconstrain plan, so that ASCP plan only for available capacity eventhough all the supply exist to fulfill all the demand. The constrain is, the business is not ready to move to constrain plan.
    If not possible, what is the alternative solution being used across industry using unconstrain plan in ASCP.
    Hoping for your expert advise.
    Thanks,

    Currently we have constrain in resource and machine capacity, we are using unconstrain plan. It would be gr8, if you provide more clarity how ASCP recommendation consider this fact and display exception for planner, as we are not able to simulate the plan for capacity changes.

  • Can I get supplier actual lead time in system?

    can I get supplier actual lead time in system?

    suppose if oyu have created PO and as per your inforecord lead tine 15days but you really want the actula time based on the vendor promice
    either you have to activate the ASN functionality or order acknowledge function
    to do that when you create PO go to confirmation tab and select the order ack and/or shipping notification and make conf reqd filed checked that means prior to GR you need confirmation from vendor about the date, and qty atleast
    you can receive the confirmation via EDI also but in this case you and vendor both should EDI funcitonality
    once oyu receive the confirmation then you have to createin the system using VL31N tcode then it will be populated in your PO.

  • How to include process lead time in an outside processing amount resource

    Problem:
    We have a two operation routing where the first operation is time based and the second operation is an amount based outside processing resource. The outside processing resource has an outside processing item associated with a fixed lead time. When we run an ascp plan, the generated planned orders only consider the first operation (the time based one) to calculate order completion date and excludes second operation lead time (the amount based one).
    Any ideas?

    This is fine if you raise exception from your code. It will be raised as a server fault only.

  • Difference between r/3 planning( lead time scheduling) and APO planning

    Please let me know the difference between the R/3 capacity planning by using lead time scheduling and APO capacity planning for a work centre.
    Both in both cases you can use the lead time from routing OPERATION.
    Please let me know where the planning differs.

  • Average support response time with free support plan

    Some time ago I noticed that I have 3 Adobe ID's.
    2 of them are correct
    2 of them have products registered to them
    1 that has a product registered to it is erroneous: has the wrong country in its registration details
    I contacted support and was assisted promptly and accurately. I needed to provide a few more details that I had to take a moment to collect. The support agent opened up a support case where I could later place the missing information.
    I informed the support agent that I would be away on holiday for a week. And immediately after I added the information that'd come in in the meantime.
    This was 1st of may. All has been silent since then.
    I tried to open up a chat to ask what the average response times are for free support plan subscribers, but I no longer get access to the chat... I guess I was probably just lucky the first time.
    Anybody here know when (on average) I could expect an update to that support case?

    Up to 2 weeks and given the current madness after the CS7/ CC announcment possibly longer.

  • ASCP Taking Lead time to buy Item from Item Level and not from ASL

    Hi All.
    We have a buy Item Which is used at multiple Organization now we have defined processing Lead time for this Item at Item Level and ASL level (Global) However for different organization Like ABC and XYZ we have same supplier and Supplier Site for this item,
    Below is the details of Item
    Item's Processing Lead Time at Item Level
    Org - ABC - 35
    Org - XYZ - 15
    Item's Processing  Lead Time at ASL Level
    Org - ABC - 10
    Org - XYZ - 5
    Now when we run ASCP plan for org XYZ and check for exception, Item's Lead time is coming from Item Level (15) not from ASL Level (Does this is expected behavior from Oracle?)
    Regards.

    Hi Abhishek,
    I tested one more time with the same scenario, this time ASCP is considering Processing lead time form ASL only however it is considering processing lead time for another organization (When I am running ASCP plan for Org XYZ ASCP is considering Processing lead time for ABC).
    Does it is due to same supplier site for both the organization?
    Also it has an active sourcing rule for the same supplier
    Regards.

  • Planning time fence vs total lead time

    Hi Gurus,
    we have a scenario like the below in the unconstrained plan. Trying to understand various dates on the PWB. could you please explain.
    1. Item is a Make item and it's planning time fence attribute is set as Total Lead time.
    2. Processing lead time of the item is 25 and fixed lead time is 2
    3. ASCP is suggesting a planned order on PTF date which is exactly 25 days from now.
    4. But the suggested start date of the order is only 2 days less than the suggested due date. This is the point we are not able to understand. We have set the processing lead time as 25 so, isn't the planned order not supposed to have the start date as today?
    Thanks
    Mahesh

    Dear,
    Please refer this link,
    [Planning time Fence|Planning time fence]
    For sales order will convert to a specific production order use CO08 here define order type as ZP04.
    OPKP ( Production Scheduling Profile) whether ZP04 is assigned under Order Type or not.If not maintain the same and then assign the same Production Scheduling Profile in Material Master in Work Scheduling view.
    Also in In OPPQ or OPPR you have to define order type as ZP04 under conversation indicator use when in MRP run MD50.
    Please try and come back

  • ASCP Yield and Resource Lead Times

    Hi,
    I am working on Advanced supply Chain Planning on R12. Both ERP Source and Planning are on different instances. We are also using Oracle Shop Floor Management. In the Network Routings we have included a lead time resources at step 10, 20, 30. The resources are as follows:
    These resources are defined as 'Machine'
    Resource for operation 10: ASSY-LT, 112 hours, Schedule 'yes'
    Resource for operation 20: TEST-LT, 64 hours, Schedule 'yes'
    Resource for operation 30: PACK-LT, 48 hours, Schedule 'yes'
    We also have only one shift with 8 hours. The resources are not available for 24 hours.
    We also have yield at each of the above operations.
    Lead time rollup calculates 28 days for the item correctly.
    We are encountering a problem with ASCP Plan. The start dates and yield calculations using constrained plan with Enforce Demand Due Dates constraint seems problematic. If we check 'Calculate Resource Requiremnents' option, the plan calculates yield but the lead time gets reduecd by one third and start and completion dates for a planned order (and ATP etc.) are not accurate.
    If we uncheck 'Calculate Resource Requiremnents'option in the plan, lead times are accurate but plan does not calculate yield.
    We are not sure what is causing the problem.
    Does anybody know what options or profiles control this behaviour?
    Your help is highly appreciated.
    Thanks.
    Vijay

    Hi Vijay,
    important for your lead time calculation is the setup of the calendar and shifts and what shifts are assigned to the resource.
    You say you do not have enabled the 'Available 24h' option. We are also using leadtime resources in certain cases, for example LT for Assembly. But in these cases we enable the 24H option. Next to this we set the Resource capacity to 'unlimited' by setting units to a very high number (1000 etc.) on resource level, to prevent that the system gets into capacity conflicts here.
    And the yield calculation indeed should be quite independent of the leadtime resource.
    best regards,
    David.

  • 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.

  • Influence on lead time scheduling in MRP

    Hello,
    I am searching a possibility to influence the scheduling of planned orders, when they are created in the MRP run. There exists a BADI which is called when creating planned orders manually, but not in MRP. Its name is MD_PLDORD_SCHEDULING
    Does anybody know about such an alternative for scheduling in MRP?
    Thanks in advance
    Roland Böhm

    Hi,
    During MRP run for single material by MD02 or on plant level by MDBT,
    For MRP control parameters-
    Scheduling take value as 2 - Lead time Scheduling and Capacity Planning.
    and run the MRP.
    With this you will get planned orders, and production rates are calculated as per time mentioned in routing.
    But if you take scheduling value as 1 - Basic dates will be determined for planned order, then you system not consider lead time. Dates are picked from material master.
