Transaction COMAC - mass availability check
What do we need to do to allow production orders with the status CFCO GMCO GMPS to be ran through transaction COMAC?
What we are trying to do is run the material availability check 1 day prior to the final assembly operation for the finished good(s). Therefore, we have collective orders underneath the finished good Production order that may have an operation lead time offset that requires other operations to already be completed in the collective order. (example, the part may be lasered on a machine 2 days prior to the final assembly and the operation was given a status of CNF for laser but has not yet been formed (form operation is still REL)). I created a selection profile status that excludes production orders that are TECO, CNF, DLV, MSPT, and MACM. It should include production orders that are REL, and PCNF.
I also noticed that the checking group and checking rules in SPRO are used by Sales, Distribution, and PP. Is there a way to break this down so that each area has their own set of rules and check group instead of us all referencing the same check group/rule? For example, Sales wants to include in house production orders and purchase orders but PP only wants to include purchase orders in their material availability check.
Okay, I have created the selection profile in BS42. Maybe you can help me answer my next question. If I have a availability check of 02 identified in my MRP 3 tab for a material (MM03). How can I determine what check rule is also defined with the availability check of 02. In configuration, under availability check with ATP logic, there is a carry out control for availability that lists the availability check with the check rule. But there are multiple options. How do I find out which rule is tied to my material? Is there somewhere else to look in configuration for that?

Mass availability check for reservations created manually
Hi,
Please let me know if there is any transaction for mass availablity check for reservations created manually.we can check avaialabilty for individual reservations in mb21 or mb22.but we need a collective availabilty check feature.
Thanks for the help inadvance.

hai guys,
i need help for finding mass availability check for an order.please help me.Try BAPI_MATERIAL_AVAILABILITY, but it works only for one material at a time. You might need to execute it in a loop.
What's your requirement? Do you need to run it just for one order or for a large number of orders? -
Mass availability check in subcontracting PO's
Hi,
is there a way to mass availability check in subcontracting PO's?
Thanks,
SebastianHi,
ME2O just compares subcontractors stock and it's demand, not carin about dates.
But I need a full availability check based on my checking rules.
I have this feature in a particular PO, but our byers need a tool to check multiple PO's at one time.

Mass availability check in COHV fails
Hi,
I have daily mass processing job for Collective availability check running with Reset availability data flag in background job.
the job runs around some time 4.30 AM in morning.
Sometime the job fails because of order locking issues ( Order is open in co02) at the time job is getting processed and entire job fails because of this and user looses all the Reservation coomitment data.
USer is asking if we can have any check beofre the job is run itself to find the order locks in advance.
Kindly help me if any notes is there,which can help in this regard.
nay solutions are welecome.Hi,
There is no option in selection screen as such for checking locked orders. The checking happens within the program when it begins the av. check. The last time I had debugged the program wasn't able to find a specific enhancement spot as such, but maybe you can invest some time with your abaper for this.
If you want to make this work with the std. program, then make it clear to your client, that they should have a window, where there is no processing of orders done. This is required to ensure that all orders are part of the Av. check run.
However if it is not possible for whatever the reason may be, then you can work with your abaper to write a Z program, within which you can make a custom check & include only those SFO's which are not locked for Av. check. However you would then also need to consider how you intend to manage the Av. check for those locked orders.
Good luck.

Availability check in the background
Hi,
Please can anybody advise whether there are any standard reports/transactions whereby the availability check for sales documents (including scheduling agreements) can be ran in the background? i.e. is there any way to do a mass availability check
The requirement is to re-run the availability check and confirm the proposed quantities in the background without having to enter each sales order and manually re-run the availability check.
Example - order is received for 100 however 0 is confirmed for the requested date due to the availability check, the 100 is confirmed on later scheduline line once the stock has become available. Stock of 50 then comes available and we would like to confirm the 50 for the required date and the remaining 50 for when stock will be available. How to do this without entering the sales document item and manually running ATP.
I have tried using V_V2 rescheduling report however it cannot be restricted by sales document number and does not give us the required proposals.
Many ThanksHi Tubby ,
i am looking at this one
Indicator 'Unconfirmed documents required'; Rescheduling
The option 'unconfirmed documents required', which is preset, only carries out rescheduling for materials for which at least one unconfirmed transaction already exists.
If rescheduling should also be carried out for materials, for which all transactions are confirmed, deselect the indicator. However, you should note that if you make this selection the quantity of data to be processed will increase.

Availability Check not working for Item Cat TANN or YG05 in Btch Split
Currently working on implementing Automatic Batch Determination (BD) project and one fine piece is holding up the implementation (make or break for project).
In our QA System:
- In inventory we have a quantity of 2 for a material: 1 in one batch and 1 in another batch.
- Create an order with 2 line items with the same material number for a quantity of 1 each. Line item category is TANN
- When you generate the delivery the batch determination causes the items to split (even though you have a quantity of 1 in the line item).
- When you go into the delivery and open up the 1st line item and look at the 900001 line, BD chooses the 1st batch for a quantity of 1. Line item category is YG05.
- When you open up the 2nd line item and look at the 900002 line, BD chooses the 1st batch again, NOT the 2nd batch which it should.
If I change the line item category on the Sales Order to TAN and generate the delivery, BD correctly assigns the 1st batch to the 900001 line item and the 2nd batch to the 900002 line item. Which is correct.
Now for the strange part. The TANN item category and BD works find in our DEV Sandbox, but NOT in our QAS system.
I have spent two days now trying to find out where Availability Check is assigned specifically to Item Categories and any differences between our DEV Sandbox and our QA systems to no avail.
Our customers need the ability to be able to put the same material number on multiple lines of a sales order due to special pricing per customer within an order.
Can anyone direct me to some configuration or transaction that controls Availability Checking by Item Category. I have checked the 0VLP transaction and they are identical between our DEV and QA system for the TANN and YG05 categories.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.In VOV6 the 'CP' Schedule Line Cat. has the Availability flag check. There were a few areas where I found an "Availability" flag and made sure there were all set.
But, I did finally find out what the error was:
Logistics Exec -> Shipping -> Basic Shipping Functions -> Avail Check and Transfer of Requirements -> Transfer of Requirements -> Determination Of Requirement Types Using Transactions
There are entries by Item Category. For
I/C = TANN
MRP type = PD
the Requirement Type was missing (if you look at the entry for TAN/PD you see an 11 in the RqTy column).
So I entered a 11 (Delivery Requirement) into the field and now the Availability Check works and I am getting the correct Batches and quantities during Batch Determination.
There is no entry for the YG05 batch split, so I guess the system just uses the Item Category of the main line item.
Thanks for the responses. Sorry to bother you I should have figured this out earlier.

Stock confiramtion at sales order level for future date- Availability Check
Hi all
Here is the scenario
This setting is available in the system:
Stock is available
Sales order created with Requested delivery date in future-> not confirmed
Sales order created with Requested del date today -> confirmed
The requirement :
how and where to change this setting in IMG so that also orders with Requested Delivery Date in future are confirmed if stock is available.
As this is urgent request to respond quickly.
Regards
DevenderHello Devender,
You can achieve the mentioned scenario by configuring ATP. You can do ATP with RLT or ATP without RLT.
In ATP with RLT, system will check and confirm the quantities from existing stock only and if quantities are insufficient then the system will consider inline POs or manufacturing time to confirm remaining quantitites.
Else you will be getting schedule lines for only items in stock and remaining will be unconfirmed as ATP without RLT will be activated i.e., system will check and confirm the quantities from existing stock only.
Types of Availability Check in Sales and Distribution
Processing
There are three types of availability check:
_ Check on the basis of the ATP quantities
_ Check against product allocation
_ Check against planning
The following SD-specific control features need to be maintained in Customizing:
_ Checking group
The checking group controls whether the system is to create individual or collective
requirements in sales and shipping processing. In addition, a material block for the
availability check with transfer of requirements can be set here. The checking group can
also be used to deactivate the availability check. This option was created especially for
the assembly order so that when the bill of material is exploded in the assembly order,
the individual components, if necessary, can be classified as non-critical parts as far as
procurement is concerned.
The checking group specifies in combination with the checking rule the scope of the
availability check. It is proposed in the material master record on the basis of the material
type and the plant, and copied into the sales and distribution documents.
_ Checking Rule
You use the checking rule to control the scope of the availability check for each
transaction in sales and distribution. You also specify whether the check should be
carried out including or excluding replenishment lead time. The individual checking rules
define by transaction, which stock and inward and outward movement of goods should
be taken into account for the availability check.
_ Schedule line category
You can control with the schedule line category whether an availability check and
transfer of requirements should be carried out in the sales documents. The possible
settings for this at schedule line level are dependent on the settings in the requirements
class which is determined from the requirements type of the material.
_ Delivery item category
The delivery item category can be used to control whether an availability check takes
place in deliveries.
Requirements type
The various requirements are identified by their requirements type. The requirements
type refers to the requirements class and its control features.
_ Requirements Class
The requirements class contains all control features for planning such as relevance for
planning, requirements planning strategy and requirements consumption strategy. In
addition, it is specified at a global level whether an availability check is to take place for
the material in the sales and distribution documents on the basis of the ATP quantity
(ATP = available to promise) and whether requirements are to be passed on. A finer
degree of control can be obtained for sales documents using the schedule line category.
Replenishment lead time is only included in the check performed on the basis of the
ATP quantity.
Prerequisites
An availability check can only be carried out if the following prerequisites have been fulfilled:
_ The control elements described above for the availability check must be maintained in
Customizing for Sales and the relevant assignments made to the sales transactions
_ The availability check must be switched on at requirements class level and - for the
availability check in the sales documents - at schedule line category level
A requirements type must exist by which the requirements class can be found
_ A plant must be defined. It can either be proposed from the customer or material master
record or can be entered manually in the document.
_ A checking group must be defined in the material master record on the Sales/plant data
screen in the Availability check field

hi,
we are using batch (first in first out) for delivery note. However, we will create DN before do the goods receipt. So after DN is created, still no stock. Any solution to do mass availability check after DN had created. We are using project stock. pls advice. thanksHi,
Go to OVZ9 for your availability check , then check if " Incl purch. requisitions" field is marked or not.. I am sure it is not in your case as of now... mark it then see the effects..

Availability Check configuration
Hi All,
I want to configure availabiliy check but I am a bit confused with the config part. Soneone plz explain the config process.
Also tell me what is the exact link ( in config ) by which the availabilty check gets triggered.
Regards,
Danny.Dear Danny,
Hope the material pasted here helps you... :
Availability Check & Transfer of Requirements
Availability check
1. Availability check is an integral part of the business process that determines if the required delivery quantity can be met on a required delivery date. For this purpose the system takes into account pre-delivery activities such as scheduling for picking or packing times and the time taken to produce or obtain the material. It also performs several background functions such as Backorder processing, rescheduling and ATP quantities.
2. Backorder processing: processing of a sales order that has not been fully confirmed or not confirmed at a certain delivery date.
3. Rescheduling: is a proposal of how u2013 confirmed quantities already assigned to a sales order can be reassigned to other sales orders that have a higher priority.
4. Available to promise (ATP): is a process of checking the available quantities of a material. The ATP quantity consists of warehouse stock + planned receipts (incoming stock) u2013 planned issues (outgoing stock). To examine stock on hand (T-Code - CO09) proceed to logistics u2013 sales & distribution u2013 sales u2013 environment u2013 availability overview.
5. Replenishment lead time (RLT): is the time taken for the material to become available either internally (in house production) or externally (from a vendor). The most important things to consider during an external procurement are purchasing and MRP 2 (procurement) views of MMR where the processing time for purchasing, planned delivery time and goods receipt processing time are taken into account. On the other hand internal procurement is based on in house production time (MRP 2 view) goods receipt processing time or alternatively RLT time, which is found on MRP 3 view.
6. RLT (Replenishment Lead Time) is the time taken for the material to become available. RLT is only used when doing an ATP check (Available To Promise). The value of RLT for a material is specified on material master record.
7. There are three types of availability checks u2013
Check on basis of ATP quantities.
Check against product allocation.
Check against planning.
Configuring Availability check through Checking Groups u2013
1. The checking group + checking rule determine how the availability check is to be performed.
2. The checking group determines whether and how the system checks the stock availability and generates requirements for material planning. The checking group defines what type of requirements will be passed on i.e. summarized requirements (daily/weekly) or individual requirements for each sales order.
3. The checking rule applies to how the availability check is to be carried out at the transaction level. Note that you must define checking rules for each individual application such as for production orders for example. In Sales and Distribution, the checking rule is specified internally within the system and cannot be changed.
4. The checking rule, in conjunction with the checking group, determines the scope of the availability check for every business operation; that is, which stocks, receipts and issues are to be included in the availability check and whether the check is to be carried out with or without the replenishment lead time.
5. Briefly explaining the above u2013 checking group determines which type of requirement to be passed on to MRP whether it be individual or summarized and checking rule which is at the transaction level and can be configured independently for each application module, determines which stocks, receipts and issues to be taken into account. For performing an availability check checking group has to work in conjunction with checking rule.
6. Advantages of individual processing over summarized processing u2013
Backorder processing is possible.
You can access (MD04) order, line and schedule line individually which gives a greater control on available stock and requirements placed on stock.
The system automatically uses individual requirements in case of special stock items.
7. Required data for the Availability check to be carried out u2013
The Availability check must be switched on at the requirement class level.
The Availability check must be set at the schedule line level.
A requirements type must exist by which the requirements class can be found.
A plant must be defined in the sales order for each schedule line item (in other words plant must be defined for every material in MMR).
A checking group must be defined in the material master record in the MRP3 screen in the availability check field.
8. Configuring Availability check and defining Checking Groups u2013
Checking groups are introduced into the sales order based on the setting in the material master record.
SAP standard checking groups are 01 u2013 summarized requirements and 02 u2013 individual requirements or you can create your own by copying the standard ones.
Total sales and total deliveries columns are there to configure a checking rule to sum up requirements to post to MRP either individually or by day or week.
Block quantity required can be set if you want several users to be able to process the material simultaneously in different transactions without blocking each other.
The no check indicator is CHECKED when you DO NOT want the system to carry out ATP check.
9. Defining material block for other users u2013 the block check box is an indicator that enables you to block material master records of a particular material during the availability check and restrict other users from accessing same master record and reserve the material. If the block is not set, two users can confirm the same material at the same time for two different orders, not knowing if the stock is available or not. If you select this field, the material is blocked during the availability check and other users cannot: a) Make changes in the material master record. b) Create purchase orders for the material. C) Create orders for the material.
10. Defining default values for checking groups - Checking groups are introduced into the sales order based on the setting in the material master record.
However if there is no entry present in the material master record for the checking group, a default value can be set here, depending on material type and plant.
This default value will be used by the system depending on the material type mentioned in MMR and plant in sales order.
If an entry exists, this default value is over written by MMR.
11. Controlling Availability Check u2013 in this section, you tell the system what stock on hand and what inward and outward movements of stock it must take into account when performing the availability check in addition to whether or not to consider the replenishment lead time.
12. These settings are based on the checking group that is assigned to the material master record and the checking rule that is predefined and assigned to the sales and distribution transaction.
13. These settings carry out control both for sales order and delivery as well. This is due to the fact that you may want to include specific stock or incoming stock for the sales order, yet at the time of the delivery only include physical stock on hand waiting to be shipped.
14. It is possible to indicate to the system that you would like the availability check NOT TO CHECK the stock at the storage location level. This indicator is used to set the scope of the availability check.
15. It is used to switch off the check at storage location level. You create a reservation for a particular storage location. However, the scope of the availability check is set in such a way as to exclude the storage location. In this case, the system carries out the check at plant level only and does not take the storage location into account that is specified in the reservation.
16. Should you not want the system to automatically check RLT, you may indicate so here. RLT is the time taken for a material to become available. It is only used when doing an ATP check and is taken from MMR.
17. Defining the elements in the availability check entirely depends on the business needs, but a few tips are given under u2013
When controlling the Availability check at the time of the sales order, a purchase requisition does not necessarily indicate by it is going to come into the plant.
A shipping notification on the other hand - a confirmed purchase order u2013 is a good indicator of receiving stock on a specified date.
It is always recommended not to select the shipping notifications for the delivery requirements type as you may not actually receive the stock into plant or warehouse for which you are creating a delivery.

TOR
IMG > SD > Basic fncs > Availability check and TOR > TOR
A line item in the sales order creates a schedule line. The schedule lines in the sales order transfer the requirements through to MRP. You can select the docs on which you want the TOR to happen. For ex, not for quotations.
The TOR aims to ensure the ordered materials are available for the requested delivery date. The TOR can be set for individual or for collective requirements (materials sales/plant view).master
The TOR is dependent on the following data:
The reqts type, reqts class, checking group and schedule line category.
The reqts type and class are determined in the strategy group MRP3)(material master
For TOR to be carried out, a few criteria need to be met:
Plant assigned to line item level, schedule line category should be switched on at TOR, TOR must be switched on at the reqts class level, checking group must be defined and allocated to the material master record (sales/plant view in the availability check field)
The reqts class is the controlling factor for the availability check and the TOR for all sd types.
Configuring the TOR:
1) Use std 041 reqts class or copy and rename it. Use the indicators to select if this reqts class must carry out an availability check and/or a TOR.
2) Define the reqts types. A reqts type is allocated to a single reqts class and not vice versa. It is based on the item category and the MRP type of the material.
3) Assign the rqts type to the relevant item category in the sales order and the MRP type found on the material master record.
You can select an alternative search strategy where u assign the reqts type to item category and MRP type. Can select source as 0, 1 or 2. (1 = Item type and MRP type strategy).
4) The TOR and Availability check can be selected/de-selected at the schedule line category level.
5) Block qty confirmation in delivery blocks. This is used to block the reservation of the TOR from MRP.
6) Maintain requirements for TOR. Requirements can be used to determine that the TOR to MRP is not carried out unless a number of conditions are met.
Availability Overview = CO09 > order qty, sd doc no, item no, requirements class.
sd no or dly no, lineStock requirements list = MD04 item, schedule line placing the demand
Stock overview = MMBE > total stock per company, then plant followed by storage location, and finally a breakdown per batch.
Transfer of requirments:
for TOR to happen the folowing control elements must be defined
1. requirmrent type.
2.requirement class.
3.checking group
4.schedule line category.
apart from the above the TOR must be switched on at
1.reqt class level.
2.schedule line level
3.checking group level.
4.plant must defined at the document item level
once order is raised the requirments are transfered from order to MRP by TOR,
various reqts are identified thru reqt type, reqt type are identified in the system thru
1. strategy group--MRP1 --mmr
2.MRP group.
3.material type.
4. ITEM category +mrp type
5.item category
once reqt type is identified it points to reqt class.
reqt class contains all the control factors suchas planing strategy,consumption strategy etc
basing on the item category group+ mrp type-- schedule line categories are identified.
if it is relevant for availability check, then the system does ATP CHECK(warehousestockplanned ordersproduction ordersconfirmed receiptsconfirmed goods issues) and decides whether goods are availabile on
the requested delivered date of the customer, if not system does a backward scheduling and confirms when material is available (materual availability date),
so if material is not available then system proposes 2 dates
1.customer delivery date
2.material availability date.
for availability check to happen the following pre-requistes must be there:
1.availability check must be swithched on at the requirment class level
2.schedule line level itmust be switched on
3.reqt type must be defined
4.checking group must be defined.
5.plant must be defined
6. the system takes by default checking group if not defined as material type and plant.
from SD the following componenets are importants
1.checking group:defines whether indivual orcollective req are to be passed
2.checking rule: defines scop of the check(what type of stock+with or without RLT)
3.schedule line category: this fine tunes whether availability check should be carried on at the sales document level or not.
4. delivery item category.
for config:
SPROSALES&DIST-BASIC FUNCTIONS--TOR&AVAILABILITY CHECK.
In material master the below mentioned must be defined also
1.strategy group.
2.scheduling margin key.
3.in house production time.
4. RLT time.
5.MRP group
Hope this above helps...
Give points if userful...

Availability check determination
Hi ,
Can anyone inform me how the Avail.Check field is determined while creating sales order. i.e., On which factors contents of this field depends on.
Thanks in advance
Kiran.hi,
Types of Availability Check in Sales and Distribution
Processing
There are three types of availability check:
_ Check on the basis of the ATP quantities
_ Check against product allocation
_ Check against planning
The following SD-specific control features need to be maintained in Customizing:
_ Checking group
The checking group controls whether the system is to create individual or collective
requirements in sales and shipping processing. In addition, a material block for the
availability check with transfer of requirements can be set here. The checking group can
also be used to deactivate the availability check. This option was created especially for
the assembly order so that when the bill of material is exploded in the assembly order,
the individual components, if necessary, can be classified as non-critical parts as far as
procurement is concerned.
The checking group specifies in combination with the checking rule the scope of the
availability check. It is proposed in the material master record on the basis of the material
type and the plant, and copied into the sales and distribution documents.
_ Checking Rule
You use the checking rule to control the scope of the availability check for each
transaction in sales and distribution. You also specify whether the check should be
carried out including or excluding replenishment lead time. The individual checking rules
define by transaction, which stock and inward and outward movement of goods should
be taken into account for the availability check.
_ Schedule line category
You can control with the schedule line category whether an availability check and
transfer of requirements should be carried out in the sales documents. The possible
settings for this at schedule line level are dependent on the settings in the requirements
class which is determined from the requirements type of the material.
_ Delivery item category
The delivery item category can be used to control whether an availability check takes
place in deliveries.
Requirements type
The various requirements are identified by their requirements type. The requirements
type refers to the requirements class and its control features.
_ Requirements Class
The requirements class contains all control features for planning such as relevance for
planning, requirements planning strategy and requirements consumption strategy. In
addition, it is specified at a global level whether an availability check is to take place for
the material in the sales and distribution documents on the basis of the ATP quantity
(ATP = available to promise) and whether requirements are to be passed on. A finer
degree of control can be obtained for sales documents using the schedule line category.
Replenishment lead time is only included in the check performed on the basis of the
ATP quantity.
Prerequisites
An availability check can only be carried out if the following prerequisites have been fulfilled:
_ The control elements described above for the availability check must be maintained in
Customizing for Sales and the relevant assignments made to the sales transactions
_ The availability check must be switched on at requirements class level and - for the
availability check in the sales documents - at schedule line category level
A requirements type must exist by which the requirements class can be found
_ A plant must be defined. It can either be proposed from the customer or material master
record or can be entered manually in the document.
_ A checking group must be defined in the material master record on the Sales/plant data
screen in the Availability check field
Configuring entries of the Availability Check
IMGSDBasic fncsAvailability check and TORAvailability checkAvailability check with ATP logic or against planningDefine checking groups
You can use SAP std checking groups of 01 for summarized reqts or 02 for daily reqts or u can create ur own.
The columns total sales and total deliveries are selection options whereby u can configure a checking rule to sum up reqts to post to MRP either individually or by day or week.
Column 5, Block qty; set this block if u want several users to be able to process the material simultaneously in different transactions without blocking each other. The No Check indicator is used when u want a material to not be relevant for an ATP check.
Defining a material block for other users. The Block checkbox is an indicator that enables u to block the particular material from being checked for availability if it is already being checked at the same time by another user.
Defining the default value for checking groups. However should no entry exist for the checking group in the material master record, one can set a default value per material type and plant.
Controlling the availability check. In this section, u tell the system what stock on hand and what inward and outward movements of stock it must take into account when performing the availability check. These settings are based on the checking group that is assigned to the material master record and the checking rule that is predefined and assigned to the sd transaction. The carry out control for the availability check must be maintained for both the sales order and delivery.

Mass atp check on service orders (material available to promise)
Dear experts,
Do you know a functionality in SAP Standard to carry out a mass ATP check for service orders?
I checked order list and components list, but there is no trigger for material availability check...
Best regards,
Philipp

If your on ECC6.0 ,EHP3 , check Enhacement Spot BADI :ES_EAM_LIST_ENHANCEMENTS in SE18 .. you can find required BADI
BADI_EAM_RIAUFK20_FCODE_CUS1 :Implement Customer Function Code in Order List
BADI_EAM_RIAUFK20_FCODE_SAP1 : Implement SAP Function Code in Order List
In above BADIs .. you can include code to perform mass Avalilability check ..

COHV (Availability check issue - Urgent)
Dear All,
In COHV, when i select the LIST - Operations, in the Mass Processing tab i am unable to select Material Availability check option in the Functions drop down box. Is there anyway i can get the function - Material Availability Check when i select Operations list?
The reason for this is because, at the moment, the collective Av. Check run is taking place at the order header level & hence the materials are committed to orders which have earlier basic start date. There is no option for me to select based on operation date. This is a real problem as material required by orders having earlier requirement is not gettting the materials.
If anyone has any alternative solution to overcome this problem, pleaset let me know. I want the Av. Check to be based on Operation date & not at order basic date.
Hope my problem is clear, await inputs.
VivekCan anyone let me know how i can do an availability check based on Operation date using COMAC or any other transaction?

MDVP - Plan order (NB type) Availability check problem
Hello GUru's,
I received one issue, the transaction MDVP does not select the plan orders for Availability check.
DUring my analysis I found that, materials have procurement type is "F". Plan orders are generated by system,
It has order type "NB" (generally our plan order type is LA - stock order).
When user check the plan orders (NB type) in the transaction code MDVP or COMAC, system shows the message
no plan order is available in the system but I checked in the MD12, plan order is available.
What could be the reason, system is showing like this message and not selecting the plan order for coll. Avl check.?
Procurement type is F and plan order type is NB this is the reason?
Kindly help me.
Thanks in advance.Dear,
Yes collective availability check has only been implemented for in-house production only.
Order type NB with F will be for the subcontracting. Also the collective availability check (Transaction CO28, MDVM) takes no subcontract orders or subcontracting purchase requisitions into account.
If you want planned orders with special procurement subcontracting into account during the collective availability check then you need to activate the modification, set the variable MOD_SUBCON to 'X' in the include PPIOHF02 after the implementation.
For more details refer the OSS Note 198398 - Collect. availability check w/o subcontracting planned ords.
