Vendor Capacity

Hi! i would like to know if some of you guys have developed a program where in before you can create a PO for a particular vendor it will prompt (warning not error msg) you that additonal PO quanity has exceeded the total quantites (regardless of UOM)of all PO created with the same delivery month date (based on the delivery date, which can be changed)under that vendor.  I mean like in PP module if the production orders' total quantities have exceeded the capacity of the workcenters.
when i say regardless of the UOM, its like the MCE3 transaction however not on the document date but on the delivery date.
thanks in advance!

Jose,
I view this can be handled by using user-exits of ME21/ME21N. I can see one user-exit <b>EXIT_SAPMM06E_005</b> which is Field Selection Control: Vendor Address Screen. Probably you can make use of that or any other user-exit. There you may validate the data from table and give a warning message.
Believe this helps you.

  • Vendor capacity check when creating PO

    Hello Friends.
    We have a business process situation where we would like to check Vendor capacity at time of creating PO (NB) for raw materials to ensure that we do not place POs for more than Vendor capacity.
    Ideally it would be great if there is any way to check all open PO qty and compare with Vendor capacity at time of placing PO - converting PR to PO or direct PO creation.
    We are in ECC 6.00.
    Appreciates your comments/suggestions.
    Thanks,

    Thanks all for your comments but option for contract will not work in our case and here is the reason.
    We want to make sure that we do not have open PO qty more than what Vendor can supply at any point of time. Business reason is sometimes there is surge in finished goods demand and MRP will create new PRs for raw materials and planners will keep converting these PRs to PO withouth knowing how much open qty already Vendor has to supply. So if we have somewhere a check point in system where it checks and warn if open PO qty is more than particular limit set somewhere for example, PIR etc.
    Please comment.
    Thanks in advance - vbhai

  • External Vendor capacity

    Here is some background on the last attempt of doing External vendor capacity evaluation in R/3 - 3.1.
    <i>I have been loading independent demand into MD61 and created various planning scenarios in MS31.  From there I ran the MRP on MS01.  We developed two customized transactions ZVCAP and ZCAP.  ZVCAP allows the user to load vendor capacities into monthly buckets.  The fields that one is suppose to load is the vendor, capacity type (Available, Tooled, and Contracted), part number, year, and monthly capacities.  ZCAP is a customized report that compares the capacities in ZVCAP against the dependent component requirements from transaction MD61.</i>
    <b>Is there similar tools in standard R/3 v. 4.6 that can make this comparison?</b>

    Hi Guy,
    As per my understanding, capacity requirements check is only possible against the receipt elements not againts the issues like independent requirements or dependent requirements.
    You can use CM07 /CM38 transaction. Once you have develop the Zreports then why do you again standard reports?

  • Vendor Capacity Planning

    Hello Sir,
    In Source Allocation, under Vendor Capacity Planning, I am trying to "Maintain Capacity Periods".
    While entering the data at Material Level (the lowest level) in the Capacity subscreen.
    I am getting the error message as
    "Number ranges module termination:"
    Could you please  give me a clue of the possible problems or settings to be done.
    Thanks in Advance, Ajay

    Hi Ajay
    I came across this issue yesterday and resolved it. You need to maintain 01 number range for Object J_3ACAPA in SNRO.

  • Capacity in scheduling agreement

    Hi,
    The documentation says we can assign transportation capacity and vendor capacity in scheduling agreements in ECC. Can you tell me which field in scheduling agreements are related to  transportation capacity and vendor capacity?
    I am new to scheduling agreements so please be a little elaborate.
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    For all of your queries;
    ME01 - Maintain Source List for the materials
    Here maintain, Vendor, Plant, Purchase Org, most important input Scheduling Agreement No  in Agreement column and  in "MRP" column, use "2" i.e. Record relevant to MRP. Sched. lines generated automatically
    Now run MRP and observe the result, it will consider Scheduling Agreement in MRP.

  • Subcon Quota Arrangement behavior during MRP

    Dear Gurus,
    Currently, we have a scenario wherein during subcon process there can be 3 Vendors active. During MRP, we would like to have an output as per below:
    Requirement: 1500
    Vendor A: capacity 500 - priority 1
    Vendor B: capacity 700 - priority 2
    Vencor C: capacity 500 - priority 3
    If I run MRP, I would like system to have PR's Vendor A with 500 then as the Vendors capacity is only 500 the remaining requirement should be passed on the succeding vendors. So from my example, Vendor B should have 700 and Vendor C should have 300.
    Is this possible using Quota Arrangement. I was trying to test but I cannot get my desired result.
    Please note that the settings in the material master is already set to Quota usage 4 and the lotsize is weekly with splitting quota activated.
    Thanks,
    Raymond
    Edited by: Raymond on Oct 10, 2011 11:17 AM

    Hi,
    Yes I have maintained below in MEQ1 just for testing but I cannot get the desired result:
                      Quota Percentage        Maximum Lot size      Priority
    Vendor A:   100                                 500                           1
    Vendor B:    100                                 700                          2
    Vendor C:                                           500                          3
    Set-up Weekly lotsize with splitting quota and quota usage 4.
    But during MRP execution, I think the system splits the requirement quantity into 2 and distribute to Vendor A and Vendor B then if it reached maximum lotsize it proposed to vendor C.
    our requirement is first to consider Vendor A then Vendor B then Vendor C according to maximum lot size and priority.
    Any idea if this is possible?
    Thanks,
    Raymond

  • Aggregation of Purchase requisition in Optimizer

    Happy Diwali to all,
    Can we club the purchase requisitions generated from SNP optimizer to one requisition for month, as SNP optimizer will plan for optimize the solution by generating requisitions with qty 2,3, or 7 and 8 qty, Now i want to club all the requisitions to one requisition to total quantity 20 Nos.
    Can any body address me how can i tackle the situation, as i want the clubbed requisitions to book the vendors capacity for 6 months or year with higher quantity.
    Regards,

    Dear Ian,
    We have tried by creaating planning book of monthly bucket but results are not satisfactory, Is it possible to club the requisitions by PPDS heuristic in lot size procedure by periods.

  • Any suggestions for an UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply)?

    We need a power backup and decided to go with a Voltage Independent (also called "Line-Interactive", "Single-Conversion", "Delta-Conversion") device.
    We have 2 servers and quite a few peripheral equipment (router, gateway, modem etc).
    Question: Is there anyone with experiences what to buy/use (vendor, capacity etc)?

    readers saying that the 'newer' models were not built as well, noisey fans, and APC filtering for coax + phone + rj45 caused interference. The SMART CyperPower does not interfere (losng that and having sporatic cable for a month).
    I like cyberpower - some for personal reasons.
    the new APC SMART 1000VA is nice. The APC XS does not filter properly and lacks features of the RS series (I have both).
    So I still have some APC models, but before I was faced with a failure I wanted to try a different brand and got burned by Belkin's junk.
    Come a storm, I use the APCs for the house and they have those auxillary 24A power packs you can plug in which will power a couple lamps for 8 hrs plus, or power Mac Pro for an add'l hour.

  • Goods receipt Capacity check in PO creation- EHP2

    Hi
    I have activated business function LOG_MM_CI_1 in our ECC 6.0 system . I have also activated Goods receipt capacity check and subsequent settings in customization . I am able to view the GR capacity check icon in Purchase order creation (ME21N). When I click this icon by selecting the line item , system does not perform any function . I have read in SAP documentation that Vendor can be assigned to door . I am not able to find this assignment in the system . Not sure whether this function is only applicable to retail system and not to SAP R/3 . If some one worked on this functionality , kindly request you to throw some light on this functionality .
    with regards,
    Joseph Anand B

    Same thing is happening to me right now .. did you found out what the error was,, or what was missing ?
    Please reply soon as I have a demo on the same in two days..

  • How to get materials at vendor location created on APO

    Hi -
    I am working on a project to try to do some capacity planning/what if analysis on SNP for materials created at a vendor location ( contract manufacturer). We currently do not maintain master data for the capacity of these vendors but it is something that the planners know of and take into account outside of APO when trying to determine the quantities for a PO.
    We do not want to actually plan the items with PPMS, etc but are looking to at least get the materials created at the vendor location on APO. Can someone give me an idea of how we would do this via the CIF?
    Thanks for your help.

    Yes it is PPM user exit on APO side and will create when PPM is cifed from R/3.

  • Vendor Confirmation_Urgent

    Hi Gurus,
    I'm having a scenario, in which my client want to enter the Confirmation of Vendor.( After sending the PO, Vendor issue a letter suggesting his capacity to delivery & delivery date).
    I have tried this functionality, using Inbound delivery. It's ok.
    But Is it really reqd to enter inbound delivery txn? I want to simply enter data against PO and would not able to process GR unless i enter data.
    By using Confirmation in PO, I am not able to do it PO itself.
    Thanks
    Akshay

    Hi,
    In PO, use confirmation control key as "0002" Rough GR and do not use "0004" Inbound delivery if you do not want to create Inbound delivery.
    When you enter the Confirmation control key in PO during creation, it only shows the option of  Conf.Ctrl,  Order Ack. and Conf.Req. indicator.
    But when you go to change PO (ME22N), you get a Table also where you can enter the details like; Quantity, delivery date, etc... received by Vendor.

    I have a lot of grief with this version of Windows Media Player.
    It is very buggy and frustrating to use.
    I have my Music library on a QNAP NAS, which is as reliable as they come.
    System notifications make it not save changes.  It also does not do a good job of interpreting albums and artists from folders.  Changes to track names are not saved, nor are tracks moved to other albums, renamed albums, changes to genre, artist
    or date.  It separates and merges albums/tracks without sense or reason.  Some changes I've made up to 4 times, then closed WMP and re-started my machine to check if it has/hasn't saved the changes.  Often it has not.
    This is the first time I've used WMP in this capacity, and I do not recommend it.
    New service pack please.

  • Integration of customers and vendors- customer exit for renaming

    We are planning to use customers for capacity reservation functionality and vendors for subcontracting in APO.
    Due to this, we will need Vendors and Customers in APO.
    Currently some plants are using same number range for customers and vendors.
    So, we will have to rename either customer number or vendor number.
    In such situation, do you recommend renaming customer number or Vendor number?
    Do you see impact of renaming customer or vendor in above processes?
    Can you please e-mail me which customer exit  I should use and steps that should be followed for renaming?
    Thanks,
    Srini

  • Vendor Mass Update is Very Slow

    Hi All,
    We are running ECC6.0 and have just consolidated our HCM and Financial systems into one instance running in a virtualised environment. We also have a linked SRM 550 running in the same virtualised environment.
    I have been tasked with a project to change all the vendor payment terms on the financila system.
    We have approx 40,000 vendors and 17 Purchase orgs.
    We need to change the terms at the Vendor Level and the Purch Org level and am using MASS LFA1.
    The General Tab changes have been done and these took between 5-8 hours.
    The changes to the Purch Orgs involve 300,000 records and the run times using MASS are getting excessive > 48 hours.
    This is having a serious impact on system resources and has slowed our system down considerably. The MASS jobs have been terminated by our BASIS team after 30 hours because of memory limitations.
    Basis have increased available memory in the virtualised system but still we are having performance problems while modifying the payment terms across the whole system.
    Can anyone else who has tried to do large MASS changes on vendors, share any tips or advise on any other methods that they have used.  Also any tips on running a virtualised environment would be useful.
    We have ruled BDC out as probably taking longer than MASS.
    Any suggestions please?
    Allen

    Hi Allen,
    As you are using MASS transaction for LFA1 for changes but it should do the changes in background processing which will not affect any BASIS storage capacity or any user information change, it will just run in background.
    please check whether you are doing it in Forground or in background.
    As well please check with technical person (ABAP) for direct Table update which will help you to do the changes in Vendor master details at Tbale level directly.
    Regards,
    Ninad Kshirsagar
