The factory calendar

Hi Gurus,
I am facing a problem Currently the system is not considering the factory calendar while giving a firm day. For eg, if the firm date is after 20 days, it is not considering the "off-days" in between and treats all the days as working days.
Regards
yogendra

Hi Yogendra,
It would be helpful if you provide the example of what your seeing to help us understand better.
If the system is not considering the holidays or weekends of your organization while proposing for externally procured parts, then it is a normal behavior, as external procurement is based on calendar days & internal procurement is based on work days.
Check & revert if the above answers your query.
Regards,
Vivek

Date is outside the factory calendar range

I am trying to run a BW query. When I click on the calnedar icon field. It gives this error.
Error: Date is outside the factory calendar range
Msg No. FK884
What could be the problem in the query? Has anybody had the similar problem before? I tried to search in SAP notes and could not find anything close to this.
I will Appreciate your help. Thanks a lot.

Hi Abhijit,
We got the same error message in 2010.
1) Check in transaction SCAL that the Factory Calendar ID 01 (i.e. German) is valid to 2009. This explains the error message.
2) Found SAP Note 1136142 about the configuration of default factory calendar ID of F4 Help and hierarchy for Time-characteristics in BI 7.0.
SAP Note Solution:
The key figure attribute obtains its value from the default work calendar as it is maintained in transaction RSRHIERARCHYVIRT (General Settings -> Default Factory Cal. ID).
This setting is valid across the entire system and does not permit any variable selection of the factory calendar for each query.
Furthermore, a value for 0NUMWDAY is calculated only for the period in which the default factory calendar is valid.
3) Check in transaction SCAL that the Factory Calendar ID of our location is valid to 2050.
The problem is solved after changed the Default Factory Cal. ID from 01 to the ID of our location in transaction RSRHIERARCHYVIRT.

Please guide me regarding this

Girish

Hi Girish,
If you take from PP point of view we assigned factory calender to work center if we changed it, the it will effect on scheduling of order, capacity planning. I dont think u will find any problem , if u change it then you need to run MRP again.
You have to assign factory calendar to PLANT
Go to SPRO>ENTERPRISE STRUCTURE->DEFINITION> LOG GENERAL>DEFINE COPY,DELETE AND CHECK PLANT>DEFINE PLANT

How to find the Factory Calendar ID

Hi,
I using the FM DATE_CONVERT_TO_FACTORYDATE to calculate the number of working days between two dates.
I am using the working day indicator and counting the number of days.
This FM has the input 'Factory Calendar ID'.
I have only the service organization as the input. How can i get the relevant Factory calendar ID?
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Shanthi

Hi,
You can use the FM: RH_OM_ATTRIBUTES_READ to retrieve the country for a particular service org.
Pass PLVAR= 01, OTYPE = O, OBJID = serv org object ID, SCENARIO= Service or Sale depending in which the attribute country is maintained in org model. You will get the attibute Countryin ATTRIB ->LOW field.

Scheduling does not take the factory calendar for counting the workdays

I am scheduling my jobs in CPS 8 and I have imported my Factory calenders also. When using Factory calendars for scheduling the jobs for the 6th working day of every month, Its does not count the Saturday as a working day, where as the calendar I am using has Working day on Saturday.
Why is it so? And is there a way to solve this ?
Please suggest. Any help is appreciated.

Hi All,
I have used this same logic for scheduling jobs scheduling for the nth work days of every month.
But I have a job, where it is required to be scheduled on the 5th workday of a month and it is submitted once in every 6 months.
When I schedule it for every month, it works fine. But when I use a submit frame to submit it for once in every 6 months, it does not work.
Can anyone suggest how to do it ? I used a embedded window to check it also, which didn't work.

System does not propose the delivery date based on factory calendar

Hi,
I am creating a sales order for a delivery date for this sat which is (2/22/09)
I have maintained 2 separate calendars for
1) shipping point
2) for the route
The route has a transit time of 1 day and the calendar has sat and sunday as non working.
the Shipping point has a pick/pack time of 1 day and the calendar has sat and sunday as non working
The material is available in the warehouse
Now when i create this sales order i enter the delivery date as 2/22/09, the system does not propose me the delivery date of monday (i.e 2/23/09) It accepts the 2/22/09 delivery date.
In the schedule line i do see the date as 2/22/09 only.
The delivery was created with the following dates
Picking = 2/17/09
Transportation Planning = 02/18/2009
Loading =02/18/2009
Planned GI= 02/18/2009
Delivery Date = 02/22/2009
How can the system give me the delivery date of a sunday when the calendar doesnt allow sunday as working day.
Also the route time is 1 day in transit so i am not sure why the system is proposing a 3 day transit time?
Can any one explain the behaviour of SAP for the delivery date logic

Dspsac,
Delivery date can be any date. For instance, if your customer insisted on a Sunday delivery, you would accommodate him, regardless of any calendar.
From the delivery date, the system counts backwards USING THE FACTORY CALENDAR ASSIGNED TO THE ROUTE by the number of days in the route. You have to consult the FC assigned to your Route to determine if the GI date has been properly calculated.
From the GI date, the system counts backward Pick/pack time, using the shipping point calendar, to arrive at Material availability date.
Calculations are explained in SAP online help

Determining in BI or in the queries which Factory Calendar to use

Hello,
Need some help? Any input would be much appreciated.
Basically I am creating a query in BI 7.0 based on Utilisation for a particular business Unit. However, I need to define or incorporate somewhere, to use the GB Factory Calendar.
I have done the normal SCAL maintenance and transferred Global settings from R/3. So all the Factory calendars have been transferred over. Our BI system is picking up the default factory Calendar as 'DE'.
How do I now tell BI I want to use specific Factory Calendar 'GB' (Great Britain) at ALL TIMES since this is the only one we will use.
Do we need to use a particular info object in query?
0CALMONTH to check working days as opposed to 0FISCPER
Many thanks in advance
Kuljit

Hi Del,
Its so easy just create exit variable , wirte a logic for finding working days. and use it in Query.

Which Factory Calendar is used to determine the Sales Order delivery date

Hi ,
There is Factory calendar assigned to sales Org and shipping point as well.
I want to know which Factory calendar is used to determine the promise date on sales order acknowledgement and which one is used to determine the delivery date?
Appreciate your help/inputs.
Regards,
Ram

Ramy,
I am not sure what you mean by 'promise date'. For a given sales order item confirmation schedule, the system calculates the following dates:
Delivery Date
Goods Issue date
Loading Date
Material Availability date
Transportation planning date.
These dates are dependent upon what you have configured, and what your master data is. If you have transportation scheduling turned on (IMG>SD>Basic Functions>Delivery scheduling and transportation scheduling), then the durations are:
Route duration (transit), - affected by factory calendar assigned to the route (0VTC, that's a zero)
Picking time, packing time, Transportation planning time, and Loading time- affected by the factory calendar assigned to the shipping point (OVLZ, not a zero)
In addition, the Material availability date will be affected by the calendar assigned to the plant (WB03). The calculated dates may also differ on a given order schedule line, based on whether the sales order is backward scheduled or forward scheduled. This is particularly important when the calendars all have different holiday schedules.
Standard SAP help on the matter, with a couple of nice pictures.

Factory Calendar issue in creation of Sales Order/ Delivery Order

Hi all,
There is one issue. Our user is not able to create Sales Order/ delivery order as he is getting the below error message u201CDate 2010-12-27 lies after the end of Factory calendar F1u201D. But when I checked the plant in customization, the Factory calendar assigned is u201CKRu201D and not u201CF1u201D. So I donu2019t understand why this error message is appearing. But when I checked Factory calendar u201CF1u201D, it was valid only up to 2010 and there are special rules also set. Only few days in the year are working days. Factory Calendar u201CF1u201D description says u201CKOR customers billed on the 25th of every monthu201D
Please advice.

Working day to factory calendar date

Hello Experts,
I wish to get the factory calendar date, specific to a factory calendar, based on a working day.
Basically, if i pass say 4, then i want to get the date for the 4th working day based on a specific factory calendar.
Can someone throw some light on possible function module that i can use in BW ?
Thanks

That's what I was giving you, you give the working day and the factory calendar and you get the date, or you can use this function and you can do it the other way:
(Unless I'm completely missing your point here...)
    CALL FUNCTION 'DATE_CONVERT_TO_FACTORYDATE'
EXPORTING
    CORRECT_OPTION                     = '+'
    DATE                               = G_WORKAREA3-CREATEDON
    FACTORY_CALENDAR_ID                = L_S_PLANT-FACTCAL_ID
IMPORTING
*   DATE                               =
   FACTORYDATE                        = L_FCDATE
EXCEPTIONS
    CALENDAR_BUFFER_NOT_LOADABLE       = 1
    CORRECT_OPTION_INVALID             = 2
    DATE_AFTER_RANGE                   = 3
    DATE_BEFORE_RANGE                  = 4
    DATE_INVALID                       = 5
    FACTORY_CALENDAR_NOT_FOUND         = 6
    OTHERS                             = 7.
ENDIF.
