The MRP generates PldOrd / STPO without considering Quota arrangement

Dear Expert,
The MRP generates PldOrd / STPO without considering Quota arrangement/ supplier quantity agreement with Individual indicator =1 maintained in MRP4. It need that it should consider Quota arrangement with Individual indicator =1 while generating PldOrd/ STOP.
Please help.
Thanks,
Om

Hi Om,
I hope that you have alreayd maintained the required master data for Quota Arrangement.
Also have you maintained configuration of Lot-Sizing Procedure ? You need to select "Splitting Quota" indicator in a particular Lot-Size Procedure, which you're going to assign in material master.
Hope it will help.
Revert if any issue further.
Regards,
Anup

MRP generated Automatic PR creation is not trigerring the Workflow.

Dear Experts,
In our Implementation we are using workflow for Purchase Requsition. The release strategy is configured by the functional consutant. For the MRP generated PR the first releasig point is MRP controller and the PR type is Custom type MRP PR. If we create the PR manually with the said PR type the workflow is getting triggered ( checked in SWI1) and sending the E-mail notification like other types of PR like Invertory and Capex PR.
But while running the MRP, some PRs of MRP PR type with same releasing point are being created automatically for the material (Raw, Packging) as per the setting of reorder level but these PRs triggering the workflow as it did while creating maually. Please guide / suggest me how I have to trigger the work flow for Automatic MRP generated PR.

If 100% quota arrangement - no PR getting generate through MRP

Dear All :
I have maintained
lot size ES , quota arrangement = 3 , source list tick in mm master.
Also maintained source list , quota arrangement.
Where ever more than one vendor , system generating PR but for those quota arrangement maintained 100% for single vendor , there system not generating PR.
I know source list is enough for same but i want to give 100 business for some items vendors.
Please resolve my query at early as possible.
Vijay

Hi
In T.code OMI4, which is to define a lot size, you see a small check box for split quota. It will be there for short term planning and long term plannng. You need to tick both or atleast one for your lotsize which you use in material master
Then only it will work.

Separate Doc.Type for MRP generated PRs

Dear All
We are facing an issue with MRP process where we want to automate the process from MRP run to PO creation.
In source list we will add the existing contracts and make it relevant to MRP so that after MRP run we will get source (vendor defined in the contract) assigned purchase requisitions. After that, we will create a background job for ME59n in order to get the POs automatically after MRP run.
In this process we are facing issue with the auto PO generation through ME59n as funds management (FM) related parameters such as Fund and Fund center need to be enetered manually at the time of PO creation in our system. So in order to avoid this manual entry we want to define FM derivation which automatically populate the fund & fund center in the MRP generated PRs.
Further, we have two options for FM derivation one is valuation class and the second one is Document type. If we define the FM derivation based on the valuation class we cannot only restrict to MRP generated PRs. Second option is separate document type for MRP generated PRs.
Please provide pros and cons regarding the creation of new document type for MRP. Also, please provide your suggestions or any work arounds for the above discussed scenario. Your inputs are highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Hi nagaraj
it makes sense . i will explore and tell you.
what about your source assignment standard program. hope it will assign source of supply if it is a valid unique source of supply else it will assign eprofile to your purcase request. check with technical resource how the satndard program behaves.
i will also explore my side again. check mm forum too on your purchase organisation assignment for your userexists.
one question to you.
when you create a PR for material and go to source of supply .why do we get many fixed vendors like contracts,info record if we have valid fixed vendors as sap ecc standard.but in my PR i may not have Purchase organisation information.

MRP Generated production orders greys out Sales Order and Customer fields

Hi there,
The MRP generated production orders greys out the Sales Order and Customer fields for some reasons. These fields are really important as they link the production order to the sales order and the customer's purchase order. Could the SAP team please fix this or advise alternative way of getting the sales order and customer info on production order? Thanks.

Hello
MRP only poulated this fields in case the material master has been set up with a strategy group hich is make to order (normally 20). Otherwise MRP summarizes all the requirements from different Customer orders and creates a production order

MRP Generated PR delivery date on a weekend

We have production orders scheduled for a Sat and Sun but the MRP generated PR has a delivery date of Friday. How do I get the PRs to have delivery dates of Sat and Sun to match the orders? We use a factory calendar that is mon-fri but we receive materials 7 days a week. I can't change the factory calendar for other reasons. I looked into creating a planning calendar but that doesn't seem to be the right approach. Any ideas?
Thanks

dear friend,
how many plants you have? I mean inwards goods, manufacturing, planning. what are the factory calenrdars for them?
what about your material master? which planning calendar you have there?
the very first idea is extend your factory calendar for Sat-Sundays
(I assume you can't re-schedule your orders for Mon-Fridays, but why you can't change the factory calendar?)
good luck.

Item Number in MRP generated PR missing

Hi all
I am encountering a little problem in my MRP Run. All of the MRP generated PRs I have do not have the item number in the PRs. This creates a problem in the ABAP report that we are using.
What causes this and how do I solve it?
Please help

Hi Obie,
Can you just elebarate little more about your problem. Is the item number tab displayed in the PR? If displayed and its blank then apart from OMDV also check PR document type settings with the help of your MM consultant or follow the below mentioned path for it.
IMG->Materials Management->Purchasing->Purchase Requisition->Define Document Types.
And if its not displayed in the PR screen then just check the Layout for PR.

Why GR performed on MRP generated delivery schedule line (unconfirmed)?

Hi Gurus,
Need some advice from you all, I have a scenario here which MRP generated the delivery schedule lines for material A on 10.08.2011 - 124 KG.
User review the MRP result and didnt confirm the line, but she added in manual line on 11.08.2011 - 124KG.
On 11.08.2011, warehouse performed GR on the delivery schedule lines. It's found that GR was actually updated into the delivery schedule line generated by MRP (10.08.2011) and not the manual line confirmed by user. (11.08.2011).
User is questioning now why the GR able to be performed on MRP generated line which had not been confirmed? Any guru can share with me the fact and good note regarding this on MRP? Thanks!
Michelle

Hi,
Since we are talking here about schedule lines, these are open for GR when the delivery schedule is send to the vendor.
In your case you had a quantity open for 10/08/2011 generated by MRP, then the user added manually another line on 11/08/2011. After this the user will have transmitted the delivery schedule which makes that both the items where marked as transmitted and thus open for GR.
Now when the goods come in the system will post against the first open schedule line that is found until this is fulfilled and then switch to the next open line at the moment of GR. So this is why the GR was put against the MRP generated schedule line as this one was the one with the earlier date.

Peter

Multiple Requisition line itme for Quota arrangement

Hello
We are maintaining the quota arrangement master data .
The Purchase requisition is splitting in to two line items based on the demand and assigning the Vendor on it .
Is it the right way or some thing missing in the configuration
Please advice me
Thanks
Nick

Hi,
1) The creation of PR depends upon the lot size you have maintained in the material master record.
a) If you have maintained lot size as FX (Fixing & Splitting) & the splitting indicator is maintained for the lot size in customizing, then seperate PR will be generated for each vendor maintained in quota, with quantity alloted to the respective vendor as per quota arrangement & delivery date being as per requirement of the material (probably being same for all PRs).
b) If you are using other lot size (which does not have the splitting indicator) then one PR will be generated for each demand, which will be assigned to the first vendor in line as per quota arrangement. Next PR (probably after next MRP run) will be assigned to another vendor which will be next vendor as per the quota arrangement.
2) Regarding firming, these PRs will not be firmed automatically. If required, you will have to firm the same manually.

Prashant

Quota Arrangment

Dear All,
Can anybody define me the process of quota arrangement & its advantages.
How i can map it befor/after the MRP is carried out .
Regards,
Gs Kothari

Hi
Quota arrangements allow you to define target percentages and distribute them between two or more purchasing contracts. A quota arrangement ensures that a contract is guaranteed both a minimum sales volume and a percentage of the total purchasing volume of the product category or product. A quota arrangement has the highest priority in the sourcing process.

Assign Source of Supply User Exit with Quota Arrangements in ME57 and ME56

Hi there,
We are using Quota Arrangements to define Vendor rebate levels and we have enabled User Exit EXIT_SAPLMEQR_001 to provide a more informative popup to replace standard Source of Supply popup as need to display current allocation quantities and % allocation fulfiled.
This User Exit is invoked during Assign Source of Supply during PReq processing (More precisely during Assign Source of Supply in ME51n and Automatic Source of Supply in ME57 and ME56) which all works fine.
When used in ME51n and Source of Supply Assigned and PReq saved, the allocated quantity against the valid Quota Arrangement (EQUK-QUMNG) is successfully updated with the relevant amount
When using ME56 or ME57 to Automatically Assign source of Supply via the PReq list, the User Exit is invoked correctly and on selecting Vendor and saving the PReq is update correctly, however the allocated quantity against the valid Quota Arrangement (EQUK-QUMNG) is NOT updated with the relevant amount
I have searched SAP Notes and debuged with limited success but cannot find evidence as to why this difference is happening - I assume that it has something to do with User Exit but any advice gratefully received if anyone else has experienced this issue?
Ben

I am new to MM, could someone pl explain the quota arrangement steps step by step anything with screen would be very helpful
for beginners like me with examples.

Dear,
Quota Arrangements :
In simple words: Distributing the requirements quantity between potential source of suppliers (Vendors) - basing on their order fulfillment capacity.
In business terminology:
Quota arrangements allow you to define target percentages and distribute them between two or more purchasing contracts. A quota arrangement ensures that a contract is guaranteed both a minimum sales volume and a percentage of the total purchasing volume of the product category or product. A quota arrangement has the highest priority in the sourcing process.
Quota Arrangements
Quota Arrangements means a mechanism enabling the system to compute which source of supply to assign to a requirement for a material.
If a material can be obtained from various sources of supply, each individual source of supply can be allocated a quota arrangement. The quota arrangement is valid for a certain period of time and specifies exactly how the receipts are to be distributed amongst each source of supply.
We can set the quota arrangement for in-house production as well as for external procurement. Setting quotas permits the automatic apportionment of a total material requirement over a period to different sources.
Sources of supply can be:
- an individual vendor or outline agreement
- another plant, from which material should be procured
- a production version
Quota Arrangement Usage
The quota arrangement facilitates the determination of the applicable sources of supply for the following at a certain time.
Purchase orders
Scheduling agreement delivery schedules
Planned orders
Purchase requisitions
Materials planning and control
In customizing activity, we specify for each material master record which quota arrangement rule is allowed. We group the usage combinations you have chosen under different keys.
We have to assign quota arrangement usage key to material master record in purchasing or MRP2 view (Maintaining Material Master Record T.Code MM01)
The quota arrangement usage determines whether a material is included in a quota arrangement and which operations lead to a quota arrangement.
We have to maintain the quota file for the material. Here we define the sequence of the sources of supply, the quotas per source of supply and numerous other parameters in the quota file.
Maintaining the Quota File
A quota arrangement file consists of quota arrangement records identifying the source (such as a vendor or an internal plant), the validity period, and the quota allocated to each source.
We can maintain the quota file. Following are the steps for maintaining this file.
T. Code: MEQ1
The initial screen for maintaining quota appears.
Enter the material number and the plant for the material that you want to use to maintain the quota file and choose. The header screen for maintaining quotas appears.
Enter the Valid to date for the quota arrangement item.
We can only define continuous validity periods for one material. In the first interval, the system sets the current date in the Valid from field. The Valid from dates of the other intervals are set continuously so that the day after the end date of the last quota item is set as the start date for the next item.
If we want to work with splitting quota arrangements, we will enter a minimum quantity here.
Double-click on the item to process.
The item screen now appears.
Here we will define the source of supply and other control parameters per item.
Allocating the source of supply to the quota item determines the procurement type that the procurement proposal receives. Therefore, we can specify via the quota arrangement that, for example, 75% of a material is produced in-house and the other 25% is procured externally.
Save entries.
Regards,
Syed Hussain.

How to Disregard Quota arrangement in LTP run

Is it possible to disregard any quota arrangement usage set on the Material Master MRP2, when running Long Term Planning MS01/02

Hello....
Note 206684 has the following information:
o When you use quota arrangement, the special procurement key of
   the quota arrangement item must correspond to the special
   procurement key for the source list entry (recognizable, for
   example, in table EORD). If, for example, the special procurement
   in the material master is changed, when the source list entry
   already exists, not corresponding special procurement keys can
   occur and a new source list entry must be created.
Check if it helps you to solve.

Gabriel
