Validation of PO / Transportations lane

Hi
My question is,
is it possible to validate the PO and the validity of the transportations lane, not by the delivery date of the PO
but validate the creation day instead, a lot of our purchased product have a lead time of more than ½ year, so it is more or less impossible to keep the info rec up todate and therefore also have a valid TP lane
please advise
Best regards
Jakob Bang

Hi,
My suggestion is create Z-validation check say "ZT_PROD"
Path:SPRO>Supply Network Collaboration>Basic Settings>Validation>Own Settings-->Maintain Settings in Validation Profiles
Val.prf=P0C1
Validation check=ZT_PROD
Check status=Active
save this setting.
and implement the Badi /SCMB/BOL_VALFRMWRK.with your logic of half year lead time.

SNC Transportation Lanes validity

Hello everybody,
I recently upgraded my SNC 7.0 from SP5 to SP7 and now have a problem with the transportation lanes validity dates.
All the transportation lanes created by CIF replication contain lines of article with an End Date at the 31.12.2010.
So I cannot anymore send PO from my R/3 system because they are all rejected with the "Lane not found" message in SNC.
So I am wondering where those validity dates are customized. I don't even know if it is a data imported from R/3 or if it has to be defined in SNC ?
I found those dates in the table /SAPAPO/TRPROD but cannot edit them.
Need quick help because all my Xxml messages are actualy dumping.
Thx.
Vincent

Hi Vincent,
You can change validity date of the contract in SNC (Which will change validity of the transportation lane in SNC).
Go to transaction code:/n/SAPAPO/MTI2 and enter below details;
Log.Source Sys=<ECCLogicalName>(Press F4 for name)
Source Category=2(for contract).
Click on Read Sources.
Then click on change button to change validity date of the contract.
But it is better you change validity from R\3 side and CIF it to SNC.

SPP Error - No valid transportation lane between Supplier and LOC1

Hi
While running the EOQ and SFT planning service, we get the following error
"No valid transportation lane between Supplier and LOC1". LOC1 is the entry location for our BOD.
We have not created any procurement relationships as we are working on a standalone SCM trialbox.
Appreciate any help/suggestions to resolve this issue.
Thanks & Best Regds
Mitesh

Hi Mitesh,
You need to have valid transportation lanes from the supplier. Maintain it manually. If I remember correctly it is possible to have External Procurement Relationships in APO only (type 4) and not just contracts, purchasing inforecords or scheduling agreements CIFed from ECC.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,

SNP heuristics and optimiser using transport lane validity dates

I am using APO SNP 5.1.
In particular I am trying to use the SNP heuristics and optimiser for supply planning.
Can anyone confirm whether transport lane validity dates are respected by (a) SNP heuristics and (b) SNP optimiser, ie no transport requisitions will be created during times when the transport lane is not 'open' in terms of validity dates.
Thanks for any advice on this...

Hi,
Irrespective of the SNP planning engine you are using, a t-lane will only be considered if the t-lane is active as per the validity dates.

Transportation lane KEY not getting generated in the table

Transportation lane KEY not getting generated in the table
Hi folks,
The issue is like this :
We have a weekly workorders upload program from legacy systems to SAP-APO. The legacy planners send a .CSV file containing material-wise workroders. A customised zee program picks these quantities & writes them in Prod.planned keyfigures in SNP planning book. This process is done for the manufacturing locations only.
Lately workorders for two particular material M1 & M2 had failed to get upload. It gives the error 'NO VALID SOURCE OF SUPPLY COULD BE FOUND' in its Job log. We did some debugging & found that for successful materials the TRPID is getting generated in the table /SAPAPO/V_TRPROD whereas this TRPID is missing for M1 & M2. Why this is happening is our main concern. We tried deleting the PPM & creating this again, assuming that the PPMID is the precursor for generating this TRPID, but this yielded no results.
____ for successful upload______________
se16 --> /SAPAPO/V_TRPROD
Version = 000
LOCTO = LOCID KEY for manufacturing location
MATID = MATID KEY of successfully loaded workorder
Enter
This gives the following results
TRPID = TRPID KEY
LOCFR = LOCID KEY for manufacturing location
LOCTO = LOCID KEY for manufacturing location
MATID = MATID KEY for successfully loaded workorder
( This seems a self-lane, i.e both TO & FROM location are same)
____ for unsuccessful upload________
se16 --> /SAPAPO/V_TRPROD
Version = 000
LOCTO = LOCID KEY for manufacturing location
MATID = MATID KEY for unsuccessfully loaded workorder
Enter
This gives the following results
Error = No Table entries found for specified KEYS
We are perplexed why this TRPID is not getting generated for these two particular material M1 & M2?
We have deleted their PPM & re-created them to cross-check if the PPMID KEY is the trigger for generating the TRPID key. This didn't work!
Please let us know in case someone faced a similar issue.
Many Thanks.
Kumar

Yes Anand.
We deleted the PPM & created it again, which didn't work.
Later on we deleted the product itself from APO & re-CIFed it from R3 & then re-created the PPM.
The PPMID which was missing earlier is now getting created! However no luck with the TRPID.
Why this TRPID is not getting generated in our only concern

Automatic creation of transportation lanes betwen intercompany plants

Hello Experts,
I need to create transportation lanes automatically through integration model between two intercompany plants. The relation between these two plants are of vendor--> customer in ECC and the documents used are of sales / PO type. Source list is availalbe for the purchasing plant. Is it possible to create transportation lane using source list? If this requires an enhancement, which BAdI is applicable?
Regards,
Raghavendra

What is the Purchasing Document used - Purchasing Info Records or Contracts? You can CIF any of these to APO to create Procurement Relationships which in turn automatically creates Transportation Lane. You have to assign Means of Transport manually though. Note - T Lanes created with reference to Contract are however not used by SNP for source determination.
The other option is Special Procurement Key - if assigned in Material Master will automatically create TLane in APO when Materials are CIFed. Downside of that process is no control on TLane Validity Date and / or other Planning Parameters like Lot Size / PDT.
As for creation of T Lane based on Source List - SAP Help mentions it can be used but have not seen in any live project so cannot comment.
Hope this helps.

SXMB_MONI Error - transportation lane related

I have transferred a PO from R/3 to SNC but I am getting an error in SXMB_MONI. It says 'ShipFromLocation could not be determined from transp. lane'. All products on the PO are present in the transportation lane. Yet the error message says 'Transportation lane(s) not found'.
How do I correct this error?

Even am experiencing the same problem for my new client.
I have checked the following:
1. Transportation Lane available between the Supplier Location and Plant Location
2. Product in PO assigned to the TLane
3. Validity of Tlane is correct
4. Means of Transport assigned to the Tlane
5. Validity of MOT is correct
6. Tlane is in active Model - 000
But still when the PO comes it fails with the error "Transportation lane(s) not found : 071(/SCMB/MDL_BASIC)
Item 00010: ShipFromLocation could not be determined from transp. lane - 042(/SCA/DM_MDCOMP
Transportation lane(s) not found: 071(/SCMB/MDL_BASIC)
Is this got to do with Active Model / Version? If so how to rectify that?

Creation of Transportation lanes during CIF of scheduling agreements.

Hi,
Could anyone please let me know the place(CIF Code) where transportation lanes are created during CIF process of scheduling agreements from R/3 to APO system. This scheduling agreements will be created in R/3 and will CIFed to APO(SPP).
I need to enhance the process where Transportation lanes are created when scheduling agreements are CIFed from R/3 to APO system. The enhancement will be adding a custom planned delivery time value to Means of transport(MOT) of the transportation lane.
I tried debugging the CIF but in vain.
Thanks in advance.

How to delete Product Specific Transportation Lanes?

I'm trying to delete a product specific transportation lane (like you would do in /SAPAPO/SCC_TL1)
but can't find an appropriate BAPI to help me do this. I see BAPI_TRLSRVAPS_DELMULTI but that seems to delete the entire Transportation Lane instead of a specific product's lane.
I've tried using BDC with /SAPAPO/SCC_TL1 but don't think it'll work since it's an ALV and I'll be running in background.
Anyone encountered this before?
thanks!

Configurations needed for Transportation Lane

Hi Gurus,
Good Day! I would like to know what are the needed configuration in R/3 and APO so transportation lane are automatically created in R/3 once Scheduling Agreement or Inforecord is CIF in APO.
Appreciate any help.
Thanks and Best Regards,
Raymond

Hi Raymond,
No Specific Configuration is required. Following are the steps required to CIF Scheduling Agreement or Inforecord to APO as TLanes.
1. Activate integration model for recieving location and issuing location or vendor for which you want to CIF the Sched. Agreement or Inforecord.
2. Activate Product-Location Integration model with the material required for Inforecord or Sched. Agreement.
3. You need to activate the Integration model with valid IR and Sched. Agreement.
The same will be CIFed to APO as external Procurement relationship/TLane. You need to assign Means of Transport if not otherwise assigned.
Hope this answers your query.
Regards,
Manjit

Product Specific Transportation lane Vs All Products Transportaion Lane

Hi SNC Experts,
Every Day we are facing SNC RON XML failures due to Master Data setup issue in ECC.
I fond that we can setup a All Product Transportation Lane. I have not tried it.
I would like to seek Expert Advise on:
the -ve impacts of suggesting Client to use All Production TL. I am assuming this would actually remove the need to CIFing Info Records for New Materials.
Please advise if this is a good suggestion ?.
Thx
MJ

Hello MJ,
If you use All product for transportation lane then:
Supplier can see all the product which are there for plant in any of product field of SNC web ui by F4 help which means supplier can see product including those which he is not supplying.
Example:1234567890 is a supplier, plant ABCD and we have transportation with all product.
supplier supplies prodcut A and B only to the plant but plant has product A,B,C and D (which are CIF )
Now whenever supplier press F4 in product field of SNC Web UI supplier can see product C and D even though he is not supplying this product which not right.
Moreover, you will loose functionality like:
SNC copies the order unit, the unit conversion factors and the tolerances from the contract or info record (if no contract exists) into the PO item whenever the validation check "PO_CONTRACT_ASSIGN" si active.

SNP is not picking transportation lane

A valid transportation lane exists for a material that is sourced by DC B from Plant A.
A valid transporation lanes exists between these two however SNP Run does not pick the transporation lane and a Pur Req is created without a source iniside it.

Make sure you have Product maintained for both source and target location.
/SAPAPO/MAT1
Also check if any Blocking Indicator for Source of Supply is set in TL(/SAPAPO/SCC_TL1 - Master Data -> Transportation Lane -> Transportation Lane )

Automatic Creation of multiple Transportation Lanes

Hi all.
Is it possible to avoid following standard behaviour:
Change of Supplying Plant in the Special Procurement Type
If you have changed the supplying plant in the special procurement type in the ERP system, the SCM system creates a new transportation lane for the new combination of supplying plant (from special procurement type) and material/plant. The already existing transportation lane and the now invalid combination of supplying plant and plant in the ERP system is locked for orders in the SAP APO system. This can be seen from the lock indicator X that is set by the system.
Automatic Creation of Transportation Lanes - Transportation Lane - SAP Library
Our need for some SKU is to create automatically two T-Lanes. Considering user exit EXIT_SAPLCMAT_001, we added a new line on CT_CIF_MATLOC (and relative CT_CIF_MATLOCX) with different SUPPLPLANT, but the system obviously blocks (SPRKZ) the SKU on one of the two T-Lane.
Thanks in advance for your support.

Hi Mauro,
In my opinion you have to create a program to delete the lock indicator. First you have to extract the information from tr.lanes, then change (delete X indicator) and save. This job should be scheduled before heuristic run.
To extract data from tr.lanes you can use BAPI_TRLSRVAPS_GETLIST2. To change and save you can use BAPI_TRLSRVAPS_SAVEMULTI2.
Hope that can help you!
Thanks.

How to block CIFed Transportation lane from ECC to APO

Dear all,
I want to know if there is any way to stop automatic creation of Transportation lane in APO when material master records, with procurement type F: External Procurement and special procurement U, are registered or modified in ECC.
Although only APO-DP is implemented in our project, which does not require the transportation lanes at all, we have to delete not only a product location master record but also collesponding product specific transportation lane when the product is no longer available for demand planning.
The integration model includes only material master records, not other TL-related data such as Pur. info.
I've tried to find any configurations or EXITs stuff which satisfy the requirement above, but couldn't find it...
I would appreciate any information on this.
Thanks in advance.

I think this is created part of the Product Integration Model and is controlled via the Product Inbound User Exit - APOCF005.
There is no User Exit for Transportation Lanes.
In this User Exit ... there is a Structure /sapapo/matloc which I think contains the Procurement Type (BESKZ) and instead of the Spl. Procurement Key it contains the Supplying Plant (SUPPLPLANT), Procurement Category (SUPPLTYPE).
It's got to be the fields in the MATLOC Structure.
Could be the MATLOCX Structure too ... I could not see any, so I think the above 2 fields should do it.
Try Coding in this UserExit to make the SUPPLPLANT and SUPPLTYPE field as Blank via ABAP Code. Do not touch the BESKZ field as that is needed in APO. This should do it ...when you activate the Model the Inbound Processing.
Hope this helps. Reward Points if you do.
