How to run MRP Based on MRP Controller? For e.g.

:- We have different MRP Controller for Spare parts and we have different MRP Controller for Finished product and raw materials. Now, how can we to run MRP, based on Spare parts MRP controller? You can run MRP at MRP controller, you need to activate user exit. Goto SMOD and activate the user exit M61X0001 for MRP Controller. (For this user exit, SPA already has given the logic. Just copy the logic and paste in the function of user exit and activate) (EXIT_SAPMM61X_001 - logic is given for this select materials for one MRP controller (specified in user_par) ---------------------------------------------------------------------WHEN '005'. UXPAR = USER_PAR. CONDENSE UXPAR. WRITE UXPAR+0(3) TO DISPO. IF DISPO IS INITIAL. EXIT. ENDIF. IF MT61D-DISPO DISPO. NO_PLANNING = 'X'. ENDIF. Once you do above the go to SPRO -> PP -> MRP -> Planning -> User Exit: Material Selection for Planning Run Here you define the 005 as MRP controller. Now when you execute MD01 at that time Enter User exit Key = 005 and User exit parameter = your MRP Controller value.

Control Regular Entry for Material Consumption

09 Jan 2011 08:14 am
Problem Ticket: In our company, recently we are observing that the users are not capturing the regular issue of material on daily basis, which is why the material consumption is not coming on time or the status is changing. Is there any option to make the entry a must or do you have any suggestion to control this loop hole? Solution: You can work with PP and ABAP person on this requirement. I think the only way to you can control this is by implementing an USER EXIT or BADI 1) User-Exit Use below user exit for Production Order when saving exit will work - PPCO0007 (Go to SMOD) Function exit EXIT_SAPLCOZV_001 enhancement when saving order &--------------------------------------------------------------------*& Include ZXCO1U06 &--------------------------------------------------------------------*Write code here

2) BADI Implement the BADI - WORKORDER_CONFIRM in this there is method AT_SAVE under that write this code method IF_EX_WORKORDER_CONFIRM~AT_SAVE. data: lt_resb type standard table of resb, wa_resb type resb. select * from resb into table lt_resb where rsnum eq i_order_header-rsnum and xloek eq space and bdmng gt 0. check sy-subrc eq 0. loop at lt_resb into wa_resb. if wa_resb-enmng < wa_resb-bdmng. message E499(sy) with 'Order is not fully consumed. Processing is STOPed'. endif. endloop. endmethod.

Bill of Material display changes in SAP PP Module

Transaction CS80 keep track of changes done to the BOM. To check all the changes, at the second screen, you must specify the earliest possible Selection date. If don't know the earliest date, just key in XX.XX.9999. Click Goto for the various type of changes to be displayed. CC04 - Product Structure Browser. This is a great transaction for viewing and modifying anything that were related to the Material. e.g BOM, Routing etc. CS20 - Mass changes : Material Selection - You add or delete a component from all the BOM.

Please check the BOM changes using below tcodes: CS80 CS81 CS82 CS83 CS84 Change Documents for Material BOM Change Documents for Standard BOM Change documents for Sales Order BOM Change documents for WBS BOM Change documents for Class BOM

SAP KANBAN Functionality

09 Jan 2011 08:21 am
Describe the overall process of KANBAN step by step. Currently, SAP KANBAN functionality is used only for procuring raw materials from outside vendors and transferring stock between plants. Interplant transfers (STO's) use internally generated schedule lines for replenishment. Vendor kanban uses Summarized JIT Calls to communicate JIT requirements to suppliers. Interplant Kanban is transparent to supplying plant. No additional work is required from the supplying plant. Advantages: 1. Keeps raw material inventory in check 2. Prevents overshipping 3. Incorrect inventory balances, BOMs, etc. do not affect shipping 4. Supplier schedules stay in sync with actual production Disadvantages: 1. Requires more discipline from the supplier and the shop floor. Example: controls in processing of scrap; maintenance and tracking of Kanbancards;adherence to ship windows. 2. More master data to maintain. 3. May hide procedural or data problems. T-codes for Kanbans Control cycle is a pre-requisite for KANBAN. You can create it with t code PK01 The major steps in KANBAN are: 1. Maintain supply area, PK05 2. Create control cycle, PK01 3. Kanban correction, PK31 4. Quantity signal input, PK22 5. Kanban board, PK13N

Introduction to SAP PP Master Data

10 Nov 2010 11:18 am
SAP PP Master Data- Master data is important component in PP modules like any kind of SAP modules. Master data tends to remain constant in and used in same way. Master data helps to maintained integration of business processes/objects. Following are vital master data elements related to SAP Production Planning (PP)Material master (MM01) - The material master contains information on all the materials that a company procures or produces, stores, and sells. It is the companys essential source for retrieving material-specific data. This information is stored in individual material master records. There are different views for user departments i.e. Purchasing, sales, Quality Management, Accounting, costing, MRP, forecasting etc. Major settings related to production planning are available in MRP and Work scheduling views of material master. Individual departments users are responsible for material master maintenance activity as per requirements. Routing (CA01) -is nothing but sequence of operations (i.e. Work Steps) needed to make up product or assembly. A routing is used as a source for creating a production order or a run schedule header by copying. It describes production process. Routing also contained information like place of work to be performed, time required to carry out work, material or component requirement along with equipment need if any. Bill of Material (BOM) (CS01)A list of components that make up product or assembly along with quantity and unit of measures.BOM is basis for number of activities in many areas like CAD Department, MRP Department, Work Scheduling Department and production order management department, Sales Order activities and in product costing department. Work Centers (CR01) -is a place where work (operations) is carried out. A work center is created for a plant and is assigned to operations in routing. Data in work centers is used for scheduling, Costing, Capacity Planning etc. Work centers are capacity collectors for internal and external processing. Production Resource Tools (PRTs) (CF01) - Production Resource/Tool (PRT) is a moveable operating resource used in production planning to perform an activity repeatedly. Examples of PRTs are Drawings, jigs and fixtures and measuring instruments. The header screen of the header/operations component displays the main order elements of production order and once required master data elements are maintained, then data Related to production order elements will automatically copied from master data which saves lot of data entry time of users and helps for planning accuracy. So proper maintenance of master data is again having high importance. Changes to master data are strictly controlled by authorizations and automatically under a Change Management. For specific production order, change of master data if any is controlled by the function Read Master Data. One can elect to read a different BOM, a different routing or both if production order is not still processed further ahead.

SAP PP Capacity Requirement Planning Overview

10 Nov 2010 09:31 am
Cost Effective and optimized use of resources is major objective of any company. Resources could be man, machines, equipments and space etc. To achieve this objective SAP PP has integrated component called as SAP PP CRP (Capacity Requirement Planning).SAP PP CRP helps to get answer to mainly following questionsWhat kind of capacity is needed? How much is needed? When is it needed? Following are major steps in Capacity Planning1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. Make educated guess about future capacity requirements based on planned order/production order etc. Evaluate existing available capacity of resources Analysis/compare requirements and available capacities i.e. evaluation Find out alternatives/substitute capacity if any primary resource is full with allocated requirements. Select alternative capacity if need arises Plan resources on alternative capacity Monitor outcome of planning and take corrective action (i.e. leveling) considering business requirements.

Main CRP elements introduced by SAP are: Available capacity Scheduling Capacity Requirement Capacity evaluations Capacity Leveling Capacity reduction One need to maintain master data related to capacities in Work Center (CR01) in Capacities Tab Page. There we maintain capacity category like Machine, Labor, Processing unit, Electricity, Transport, external processing etc along with formulas (i.e. Setup, processing, teardown, pooled capacities etc) and Capacity requirement is based on these Set up, processing and Teardown time factors all together based on actual process and requirement of planned or production order. These different time factors are assigned to operation via routing .And further resources is attached to operation and finally Scheduling is used to determine the times of the capacity requirements. In production planning requirement is normally consists of Planned Order, Production orders, Process Orders and SOP orders. Other PP master such as Material master, BOMS, routing and factory calendar are pre- requisites for capacity planning function. The capacity planners responsible for machine loading are obliged to process the scheduled capacity requirements in production on time. Further standard available capacity is maintained in respective header data of capacity category. Available capacity is the work that can be done by a capacity at a work center per working day. Operating time of capacity is calculated considering start time and finish time of capacity category minus lengths of break considered for resource/work center multiplied by capacity utilization percentages. For available capacity calculation SAP consider Factory Calendar attached in Header Data of work center capacity category. For example, lets say Machine is capacity category. And it is available from 7.00 a.m to 7.00 p.m. and there is one hour break during this available time. And Management anticipates 85% utilization of machine. And no of machine are two nos of same specification.

So in this case available capacity will be calculated as followsShift hours [7.00 AM to 7.00 PM] less [Break 1 hour] * [No of Machine or capacities 02 nos] * Capacity Utilization (85%) So Available Capacity = (12-1) * 2 * 85/100 =18.7 hrs Another important element of CRP is Capacity Evaluation which is used to analyze capacity loads in company. In the capacity evaluations, requirements can be compared with the available capacities. Capacity Leveling function is used to dispatch operations. Operations are dispatched in order to fix them at a point in time when there is sufficient capacity for them to be carried out. The objectives of capacity leveling include: Leveling overloads and under loads at work centers Achieving optimum commitment of machines and production lines Selection of appropriate resources And SAP has provided interface called capacity planning table which enables to carry out detailed planning of capacity requirements continuously over time. One can use planning table to carry out simulation. Capacity reduction is necessary for accurate capacity planning functioning. Capacity reduction occurs when operations are confirmed or order quantities are reduced or cancelled.

Knowledge on Discrete and Repetitive in SAP PP Module

09 Jan 2011 07:59 am
1. WHAT IS THE MAIN DIFFERENCE BETWEEN DISCRETE, REPETITIVE AND PROCESS MANUFACTURING. GIVE SOME EXAMPLES. PP-Discrete: Required where there will be discrete orders passing through a work center, here the capacity planning plays major role. i.e. if you have a lath machine, many orders are going through this lathe m/c and schedule plays very important role w.r.t lath as well as the product as the product has to go through many work centre. Every time the product many not be same can be different, but same work center can be used for many products. PP-PI: We are mainly concerned with quality parameters and Process management i.e control recipe is configured in this module. But the difference is the o/p is almost same, you will not change the product, but every step is very important to achieve the product quality. And it is entered by operator and approved by shift supervisor through control recipe function. REM: Mainly to reduce the data input by person working in SAP and in this case we are bother by the period end costing and not the each order level costing as the process is repetitive and one order is sufficient for the wile life.

2. HOW YOU CAN DECIDE AN ORGANISATION IS DISCRETE OR REPETITIVE OR PROCESS INDUSTRY? It depends on the client decision. In general it can be classified on the basis of product flow in the manufacturing process. If the production process under go same type of operation and process in their manufacturing, client can go for REM. If the production flow in their manufacturing process under go different operations depends on the requirement, client may go for Discrete. Also the production contains more and long operations can adopt discrete. REM contains similar less complicated operations. Even FERT can produced with Discrete and HALB can be produced by using REM.

3. FOR EXAMPLE CAR MANUFACTURING, WHAT TYPE OF INDUSTRY IS THIS, IF IT IS REPETITIVE, WHY NOT DISCRETE OR PROCESS INDUSTRY. We can map the car manufacturing in REM or Discrete. It is to be decided with the business process owners and consulting partner, how they want to map the system. Production persons will explain how and about the production process. Also, the opinion of Costing department is important. Accordingly, it can come to a conclusion whether to go for Discrete or REM. It is to be decided before implementation starts.

Hi sandeep In creating Variant configuration for a material , follow the steps. 1) CT04 : Create the characteristics which you have for the material. 2) CL01 : Create the class with class type 300 /200 and assign the creaed characteristcis in step1 here . 3) MM01 : create the Configurable materila with Mat type KMAT , and in CLASSIFICATION view assign the class which you have prepared .

So no w you can able to Configure a material , for that you need to wirte the related Object depandenices , Objeect depandencies are of 4 types 1) PROCEDURES : TCODE : CU01 2) PRECONDITION: TCODE : CUO1 3) CONSTRAINTS : TCODE :CU21 4) Actions The central settings of a material like which type of BOM and whether it belongs to single level or multi level and some mote important data can be maintained in Configuration Profile. Configuration Profile : TCODE : CU41 The Object dependencies you prepared can be attached in Configuration Profile such as PROCEDURES AND CONSTRAINTS. Preconditions can be assigned in characteristics value level and in characteristic level but not in Configuration profile. after assigning all Object dependencies you can check the consistency of the model by using TCODE : CU50 ( wit

hthis one particularly you can check whether your configuratio n is working as you desired ) Please come back to me if you have any queries. Reward points if it is helpful. S.Nandakumar

Hi, Eg: Ford car.If a sale order is raised for fiesta lxi model the system should choose red colour & for vxi blue colour respectively.

ie you need to define the characteristic and assign the values . This characteristic need to assigned to class. class need to be assigned to material master 1. T.code : CT04(characteristic) FORD_MODEL, Choose single value & entry required tab & give the input as 01 fiesta_lxi & 02 - fiesta_vxi.( characteristic values) 2.Tcode: CT04, FORD_BODY( another characteristic) Choose single value , don't click entry required. 01 - Red( characteristic values) 02- Blue 3. Create class T.code : CL02 fiesta_class type : 300 4. OBJECT DEPENDENCY: T.CODE : CT04 FORD_MODEL CLICK VALUES TAB, IN FIESTA_LXI CLICK THE 'O' meant for Obj dependency, action & extra. Edit the dependecy,

010 $Self.ford_body = '01'. & save Repeat the same for FIEST_VXI & instead of '01' give '02' for blue colour. , then create a ROH as ford_body. & a KMAT material for the car. . Then create a Super BOM with usage 3 & give component as ford_body Then use T.code cu41 (Create config profile) enter a profile name & class 300 & choose class assignment, choose fiest_class , Use T.code cu50 to check the values. Then create a sale order. Pl. reward if helpful. Regards, nandha MURUGESAN THANG...

Romena, It would be a good idea to create a new thread for the problem faced. Any way when you are creating the material with material type KMAT, default your material type would be defined for Configuration so no need to to do this stuff. Activating the check box for "Material is Configurable" is applicable only for material types other than KMAT. Regards, Prasobh

Hi, I am repeating what other Gurus said. When you create material master with KMAT, you will not see "configurable material" in basic data. KMAT itself is the configurable material, hence you will not see in the basic data. Madhava

Hi, FI-PP integration takes place mainly at these stages1) When you create and release the production order, the planned costs will be calliculated from BOM and Routing/Master Recipe master data.-Co document will be generated for Planned postings 2) When you issue goods(Raw materials) to production (against Production order) the FI and CO entries will get generated -CO27 FI Entry- Consumption A/C Dr To Inventory A/C Cr CO primary cost postings will be triggered against the cost center. 3) When operations in routings are confirmed , the cost centers in the work centers will be charged with the activity costs Here secondary cost postings will be triggered in the production cost centers. 4) After final confirmation of the operations, the GRN will takes place against the production order, here also CO and FI documents will be generated -CO11 FI-EntryFinished Goods A/C Dr To cost of goods produced A/C 5) If the production order is not confirmed fully, we have to run WIP at the month end-KKAO FI entry- WIP A/C Dr To Change in WIP A/ c Cr The above entry will be reversed at the time of settlement of production order. 6) When the PO is technically completed, then settlement of PO takes place-K088 FI entryPrice Difference(Goods) A/C To cost of goods produced A/C Thanks Kishore

Pankaj, The procedure is same in SAP HR. Im afraid these are not transportable and thus have to be created manually in every system. Here is a summary of steps for creating holidays. I have to search my notes for creating factory calendar... will keep this thread posted. Public Holidays Menu Path: SAP Implementation Guide Maintain calendar General Settings SAP Web Application Server Trx Code: SCAL Choose the radio button Public holidays and click the change button Select the create button from the toolbar Select the required holiday type radio button option from the above screen and choose create button (in this example is a movable holiday is selected which means the date is not known but month and day is known) Enter the year, month and day, sort criterion, Holiday Class, short description and long text.

Found it :) Holiday Calendar SAP Web Application Server Menu Path: SAP Implementation Guide Maintain calendarGeneral Settings Trx Code: SCAL Choose the radio button Holiday calendar and click the change button Choose the create button from the toolbar

Enter the calendar id, description, Valid From year and To year. Then click the Assign publ. holiday button. Select the required holidays and choose the assign publ. holiday button (you may use the funnel button in the above screen to filter out only records based on your sort key defined earlier while creating the holidays).

Choose the assign publ. holiday button Choose the save button from the SAP toolbar. We get a warning because we have not maintained holidays for all the years in the range 2006 2010 except 2006. Click the yes button multiple times till the warning disappears and the holiday calendar gets saved. Factory Calendar Menu Path: SAP Implementation Guide Maintain calendar General Settings SAP Web Application Server Trx Code: SCAL Choose the radio button Factory calendar and click the change button Select the create icon from the toolbar. In the screen that opens enter the Factory Calendar Id, description, valid from year, valid to year. Also enter the holiday calendar id created in earlier. Then select the checkboxes to indicate which days are working days. Click the save button in the sap toolbar. The factor calendar gets saved. Note: 1. Special Rule: Based on the above workdays settings in the factory calendar, the Public holidays are considered as off days if the checkbox Public Holiday is not selected. If the checkbox is selected all public holidays are considered as working days. Now If you want a particular public holiday to be considered as a working day (but not all public holidays as working days) you need to maintain a special rule and specify the from date, to date and check the workday checkbox. This special rule is then maintained in the factory calendar. 2. You may refer to the factory calendar, holiday calendar, public holidays defined in the ECC 5.0 system (through transaction code SCAL) so that the ECC and CRM system calendars are in sync. To view the Factory calendar, Select the calendar and click the

Calendar pushbutton We see the factory calendar maintained for the no of years. Select a row from the above list and click the Year pushbutton from the toolbar to see the detailed month-wise calendar for the year selected. To see details of a particular day from the above calendar, select the date and click the Day pushbutton from the toolbar. Similarly you can see details of the Holiday calendar as well. Hope this helps too. Julius Pereira
