Query on PPDS Scheduling

Former Member
0 Kudos

Hi all,

We are using PPDS in our scenario.

We use PDS & dynamic pegging.

We have semi finished product(SF) and Final product(F)

in our BoM.

Once the SF is made ready, it has to be consumed within

3 hours to make the final product F. There is capacity

constraint to make F from SF.

Under these conditions, how to achieve this requirement.

I tried with Shelf life, but not working.

Please throw some light on this to meet the requirement.

Regards

Hi senthil,

From your note, I understand the HALB will not be stored in any physical storage Location and will be taken into the Production staging of the Finished product directly. I get series of ideas, please check if it helps your business.

1. Total shelf life should be made to 1 day.

2. Move any stock expired to Blocked everyday so that unrestricted stock will have only current date stock.

3. Store the Goods receipt time in batch characteristics. We can transfer the batch characteristics to APO Product master, if needed.

3. Use FIFO method (Considering the GR time from Batch char) for batch determination. This will consider the first batch that was received that day. Considering the fact the process is continuous there will not be any batch left with out consuming.

Also I guess this can be achieved by Offset settings in relationships between the operations. You have to assign the Halb in the successor operation and the FERT at the predecessor operation. The offset time should be 3 hrs.

I guess we need to test these scenarios. I am now in a project where there is no batch managed products. Hence difficult for me to test the same.

Cheers

Hi Vignesh,

Thanks for your quick response.

I am looking for some settings at APO side so that this scenario

will work keeping all settings constant at R/3 side.

If you have any ideas, please pass it on to me.

Thanks in advance.
