Hello pp colleagues !

My client need that the dynamic safety stock can be available for planning , that means, it can also be used
to cover requirements. Similar that the safety stock works (Production>Material Requirements
Planning>Planning>MRP Calculation>Stocks>Define Safety Stock Availability) .

Hi ,

Please refer the following on Dynamic Safety Stock in MRP net

requirement calculation -

Dynamic Safety Stock:

If the option Define Range of coverage profiles is chosen in IMG

(Tr.Code
OM1A) you can determine a safety stock level that takes into
account:

1. Requirements.
2. Range of coverage

The limiting factors to the above are:

1. Maximum and minimum range of coverage ( defined period , that

is month,
week or PPC planning calendar)
2. Determination of various periods for the
validity of the range of coverage.

The system uses the formula:

Dynamic safety stock = average daily requirements (ADR) x Range

of coverage

ADR = Requirements in the specific period / number of days in the

total
period length (defined period x standard days)

Please note here that if you carry out the planning run even in the
middle of
the month the system will include even the requirements planned at
the beginning
of the month.

Please also note that you can determine the range of coverage for
a maximum
of 3 periods.

1. Range of Coverage in the First Period

2. Range of Coverage in the
second period

3. Range of coverage on the rest of the horizon

However you have the option of maintaining different coverage for

each of
these periods.

Based on your customization the system determines the number of

days used for
calculating your average daily requirement

Minimum Stock Level (mSL) = ADR x minimum range of coverage

Target Stock
Level (Dynamic Safety Stock this is DSL) = ADR x Target range of
coverage.

Maximum Stock Level (MSL) = ADR x maximum range of

coverage.

Having confirmed the above, I will now try and explain through an
example how
the system calculates the Dynamic safety stock:

Presume that the system has determined the ADR as 25 Kgs for a
material.

You have set the following in customizing:

Minimum Range of coverage = 2 days

Target Range of coverage = 6 days

Maximum Range of coverage = 10 days

Now the System determines the following;

mSL = 2*25 = 50 KGs

DSL = 6*25 = 150 KGs
MSL = 10*25 = 250 KGs

This is what happens for various levels of stock

Case 1:

Stock = 45 Kgs
System Activity = DSL - stock
Procurement Proposal =
105 Kgs

Case 2:

Stock = 60 Kgs
System Activity = DSL - stock
Procurement Proposal =
90 Kgs

Case 3:

https://archive.sap.com/discussions/thread/3773358 4/6
17/10/2017 Dynamic safety stock in net requirement calculation

Stock = 155 Kgs

System Activity = none
Procurement Proposal = none

Case 4:

Stock = 255 Kgs

System Activity = System checks whether the procurement

proposal is firmed
and if yes it displays an exception message.

Also note that in the case of Time Phased materials planning The
range of
coverage is calculated differently.

Hello !

Thanks for your comment .

I already understood how to work the dynamic safety stock. My new question is if is
possible that when I use PIR and Coverage profile, the MRP create only planned order
dynamic safety stock and not for PIR.

Can you help me please to clarify my doubt ?

Thanks a lot for your comments

Vero
