Testing MRP scope of planning and MRP lists

Hi,
I am configuring the scope of planning and want to know how can I test if the planning is happening in the sequence as specified in the scope of planning. I would have around 20 plants in the scope. I thought of going after the time stamp on the receipts created by the system. Is there any table like MDKP which can show me the sequence of planning ?
Also what is the use oif the tcode MD08.... delete MRP lists ? what is the use of deleting these lists besides keeping the system clean
Thanks

Hi
Reorganization of the MRP Lists - MD08
A report is available for reorganizing the MRP lists which you can find in the menu for MRP under the menu option, Environment. If you enter the selection criteria, plant, material, and MRP date, the system deletes all the MRP lists from the database that are no longer required.This report can also be started in a test session and you can instruct the system to print out a list of all the deleted MRP lists.
Further
Deleting MRP Lists - Manually in MD05
If the MRP list is no longer required, you can delete it manually. In order to do this, choose MRP list ® Delete document. The MRP list will be deleted.If you do not delete the MRP list manually, it is stored in the system until a new MRP list is created by a further planning run.

No Planning happening with scope of Planning for total Planning

Hi SAP Gurus,
The Scenario is for Consumption based planning and MRP run.
I have created a New Entry under Scope of Planning for total Planning run and entered the required two plants under sequence of Plants.
I have also entered manually consumption values for trial materials in those two Plants. I maintained MRP and Forecast View.
I then ran MD01 using the Scope of Planning created. But when I check the MD04 results for trial materials, no Planning has happened.
I shows a message "Pl carry out Forecast for material xxx in Plant xxx "
Then using T.Code- OMDO, I created a variant for each Plant and also Scheduled. But after then also with MD01, No planning is happening.
When I check under T.Code - OMDU, the respective Plants were activated
Pl guide me the steps for Creating of Scope of Planning and then how to set up planning file and what could be the reason materials are not getting Planned.
thanks and regards,
R.Velmurugan.

Dear Mariano,
MRP type VV (forecast based Planning) is used for these materials.
I defined Scope of Planning for Total planning and included Plants in sequence.
Then I created new Variants for Planning file entries for these Plants (T.Code - OMDO).
Then I created new Variants for Planning file entry consistency for these Plants (T.Code - MDRE)
After then I executed Mass Forecast (T.Code - MP38) and then carried out total planning run using T.Code - MD01.
Now the materials are getting planned.
I missed Forecast run earlier.
I found the reason for the problem, hence closing the thread.
Thanks to Mariano and Daniele for your inputs.

In scope of planning ( md01), How to maintain MRP areas in scope of plg?

Hello PP members,
In scope of planning ( md01), How to maintain plant or MRP areas in scope of planning ?
What is the transaction code for maintaining plants or MRP areas in the scope of planning
I tried transaction code SAMP, Also went to SE93( Maintain transaction) for any related transaction codes for maintaining plants in scope of planning, it wasn't much help
Thanks for your time,
Thanks Again,
Suren R

Hi,
we can use Total planning(MD01) for a single plant or use scope of planning to control whether total planning is to be carried out for single plant/sevaral plant/ for one MRP Area/sevaral MRP areas/ combination of plant and MRP Areas.
Steps :
1.Group together the plants which are to be planned in spro in --->Define scope of planning.(OM0E)
2. Define the scope of planning as 999 for ex and give description.
2. Now select that and Specify the sequence in which Plants and MRP Areas are to be planned,
3.Goto new entries and enter the plant as 1000/MRP Area as 1000 with counter 1 and plant as 1100 with counter 2 and save.
4.Execute the total planning either as online job or as background job.
5.The planning run has to be always started with paralle processing.
In SPRO in define parallel processing in MRP enter the destination for parallel processing for ex your server name and enter the no .of sessions as 1 and save.
6.Tcode MD01 enter the scope of planning group and selet the parallel processing and enter.
7. All the materials to be planned in the plant / mrp area will be planned now.

MRP Planning and AV Check

Hi,
During MRP run for a FG will Availabilitycheck be carried out..??
I have a FG with MRP type ND(No Planning) and Availability check KP(No Check) with these settings if I run MRP I know that Material will not be considered for MRP run, but will Availability check carry..??
For which strategies (MTS and MTO) will AV check be carried..??
Please teach me.
Regard's,
Uday.

hi,
As MRP run is concerned it will take all stok into account, except the settings in OPPI for stock-in-transit, blocked and restricted.
Availability check is to check the availability of components for Planned orders and production orders.
For planned orders you can check the availabilty collectively in MDVP.
and prod orders check in COHV.
If you put ND as mrp type, system will not take it for planning.
Normally for pipematerials we put KP as availabilty check.
Thanks,
JK

Combined use of Consumption-based and MRP-based planning

Hi experts,
My user requested me to setup a requirement planning for a particular type of material but the net calculation is considered by the past history and its planned independent requirements. From my understanding, the MRP procedure maintained in the MRP type can only be chosen either from CBP or MRP.
Could someone give me advice on how to solve the problem? Many thanks.
Eddy

Hi Eddy
It's possible to run the forecast for this material and then transfer the results do demand management to generate PIRs.
You can do that using a standard MRP type, such as PD.
You can transfer the forecast using MD70 program RM60FORC.

MRP-II includes following SAP modules:
Materials Management
Production Processes
Quality Management
Product Costing
The end result of MRP that supports enhanced inventory tracking, limited product and project costing, quality management, and process order management. Despite its complexity, the system is both flexible and easy to use.

MRP Areas and MRP

Order reservation should not get planned in mrp run

Hello friends,
Actually for a finished material i have created one production order by CO01.Because of it for semi finished material system created order reservation.I dont have any stock of semi finished material.Now i want while running the mrp run system should not planned this Order reservation of semifinished material.For these in configuration of availability check (Scope of check T.C OPJJ), I made the settings that system should not consider reservation (i deactivated the tick for include reservation) and for include depend reservation , i selected Donot check.And all these settings i made in checking group 02 and checking rule PP.After doing all these settings than also system is considering the order reservation for semifinished material and generating the planned order for it.
Do i need to do any other configurations?
Thanking you guys in advance.

Hi Jitendra,
Checking Control (OPJJ) has no relation with MRP.It is useful in the case of Plan and Production / Process Order only to find out Missing part.
Now come to MRP again.
You have a choice of only 3 type of stocks to include or exclude them during MRP run while rest of the things like (PO,PR,Reservation etc are consider by default)
Go to OPPQ and after selecting Plant go to Available Stock.You will find that options,
- Stock in Transfer
- Block Stock
- Restricted Stock.
And one more thing Reservation is not a available stock but its one kind requirement and if there is no stock then system will activate the Planning file entry and during next MRP run it will generate Planning proposal also.

Dhaval

MD04 Transaction and MRP related queries

Hello All,
i have some specific questions regarding MD04 and MRP Run
1. In MD04 for few raw material i am getting -ve available quantities , i am not getting why MRP didn"t run for the same before available qty become negative , we have a batch job schedule for MRP run .
what all the possibilites of not running the MRP ,
We don't have reorder level planning ! MRP type`is standard one PD .
2. For some material we are not able to create a planned order, settings in Material Master MRP view is fine as we have another material with same settings are working , i am running the MRP through MD41 Transaction code >
Forecasting is done through MD61/62 active indicator ticked >
what else could be the reason .
Secondly one silly question does MRP take into consideration available stock during run , i mean if i run the MRP for a material with Tcode MD41 , will MRP create Planned orders , even if enough stock is available >
Thanks for coming back in advance .
Thanks and regards

Look for the MRP list as well (MD05), not only the Stock/Requirements List (MD04).
You can see there the date and time of the last MRP run, and if there was a termination that did not allow the proper run.
There may be a number of reasons why a material was not included in the MRP run, like what type of run (e.g. regenerative or net change), etc.

INPUT FOR MPS AND MRP

Dear gurus,
I want to run MPS ande MRP at plant level ,
1)so If i want to use MD40 T.C for MPS what are all other inputs I should give as I am running for the first time at plant level.
2) In the same way for running MRP at plant level for the first time what are all the input i should give in T.C = MD01
waiting for your speedy reply

sekar chand

Hai gurus ,,
Thanks for your reply
I need theMRP control parameter for MRP and MPS or confirm whetther the following is correct for running at plant
level for first time.
T.C = MD40( MPS at plant level first time)
MRP control parameters.
1) Proceesing key = NEUPL
2) Create Purchase Req= 1
3) Schedule lines = 3
4) Create MRP list = 1
5) planning mode = 1
6) Scheduling = 1
In the same way for TC = MD01 ( MRP at plant level for first time)
MRP control parameters.
1) Proceesing key = NEUPL
2) Create Purchase Req= 1
3) Schedule lines = 3
4) Create MRP list = 1
5) planning mode = 1
6) Scheduling = 1

How to Run MRP with requirement Plan Number

Dear all,
I am working for the process of MRP Run .But customer requirement is that "To Run the MRP with requirement Plan Number"
If you are aware of this scenario ,please provide the solution.
Thanksin Advance

Go to MD61
Select the Radio Button Rqt Plan Number
Write the plan number eg. "test1"
now you get the next screen
Here you can enter the materials like
first line Testmat1 -qty 100 150 ....
2nd line Testmat2 -qty 150 100
like that
So the difference between MD61 with Material and Rqt Plan number is
Material means we give requirement for only one material
But for Requirment plan number , w.r.t one Rqt Plan number we can maintain requirement for multiple material
same material with same period we can maintain requitement for Different Requirement Plan number
This is reducing effort of client of data entry and for different sales Regions for the same material through "Rqt Plan No" they can differentiate the rqt
MRP run run it for PLANT or multiple plant with Scope of Planning
thanks

Dependent requirements for Top level materials planned in MRP

Hey Gurus,
A top level material 20350 has a component 30397 and both of these materials are planned in APO. We have another top level material 30399 (but this material is planned in MRP) and the component 30397 (is planned in APO) will the dependent requirements from material 30399 be populated in APO for material 30397?
Sincerely,
Kris

Kris
As Datta has mentioned the dependent demand will not reflect for the component material in APO. We had the same scenario as yours and this is what we did
We modified the Planned order integration model filter criteria by adding custom logic in the BAdI CIF_INT_MODEL. The logic was to query the BOM tables in R/3 and find out all parents that have SNP relevant materials as components and include these parents in the list of materials for which planned orders are to be CIF'ed from R/3 . The BAdI will be invoked when you run the IM generation .
You also have to CIF the BOM to APO . Once the PDS and planned orders are available in APO , the dependent demand will be created automatically. ( If you do not want to modify the BAdI then you can write a query and identify the parents and add them to the integration model manually)
Thanks

SPP and MRP Areas

Hi,
today we are doing all our ECC planning (MRP) on MRP Areas. No planning is carried out at plant level.
Is it possible to do the planning in SPP on the MRP Area locations instead of Plant locations.
We are considering where to perform our spare parts planning in the future and we are thinking of either using:
- ECC Flexible Planning
- APO Demand Planning
- SPP

Kenneth

Can PIR created at wbs element and MRP area of storage location level

Hi,
I tried to create an planned independent requirement at MRP area and WBS element level, but failed. The MRP area is not plant level, but storage location level.
*When trying to create account assignment category Q for it, then there is an error message saying:*
**only stock requirements are allowed when planning at MRP area level.**
Does it mean it is not possible to create planned independent requirement for this case?
Thanks!

Select the "Issue storage location" as '2' here:
spro -> production -> material requirement planning -> mrp groups -> overall maintenance of mrp groups -> overview -> mrp control parameters at material level -> (field) Issue storage location selection
& make sure:
1. In the BOM issue storage location is blank for the components
2. For the FG products , in mrp area prod.storage loc is maintained
3. Components are extended to the mrp area.
Pl. revert with the results

Purchase Requisition and MRP

Hi All,
When we Run MRP, system will create the requirement.
As in case of Production Order , FIRM indicator is there for order confirmation.
But for purchase requisition there is no such confirmation tab i observed.
Is there any facility there any such tab/tick available in PR which FIRM the requirement.
As my requirement is when i run MRP say today for certain SO item system give me the requirement of say 100 XYZ material code item. And creates the PR 450000010.My purchase department starts working ON THIS PR.
But next time when i run MRP, system again generate the PR 450000011 of 150( 100 from old and 50 new ) for same items XYZ..
But i observed that in this case previous PR 450000010 is deleted and new qty is updated in lates PR.
User dont want this , system should create new PR every time when i run MRP without deleting old one
Best Regards,
SAPMM

Hi,
The effect of it is that MRP won't be able to change the PR anymore.
SAP help (F1)
Firms the purchase requisition or delivery schedule line of a scheduling agreement, and determines that it cannot be automatically changed by the materials planning and control system.
