Conversion to PPDS orders

[Former Member]

Hello,

Is it possible to convert SNP planned orders to PPDS Orders without looking at the maximum lot size?

We want to keep the maximum lot size in the master data of APO (and R/3) because we need it for something else, but we do not want the conversion to look at it and split the planned orders automatically.

Is this possible??

Kind regards,

Bert

Hi Bert,

During SNP to PPDS conversions, the following are considered for

procurement quantity calculations.

1) PP/DS determines the procurement quantities according to the settings in the location product master.

2) PP/DS generates a PP/DS order with the receipt quantity of the SNP/CTM order.

3) PP/DS determines the procurement quantities from the lot size interval of the PP/DS source of supply specified by the SNP PPM.

4) PP/DS uses the RRP_USEX_SNP2PPDS_LOTS method for the procurement quantity calculation. You have implemented this method in the BAdI /SAPAPO/RRP_SNP_CONV.

For source determinations, PPDS uses source of supply

Both these are supplied from PDS or PPM data which we are maintaining.

For PDS data, the input is from R/3 system from routing.

Hi Mareeswaran,

Could you please explain, how to implement the method rrp_usex_snp2ppds_lots?

We have a business requirement as bellow

Ex: SNPord no qty date

1 15000 17.11.2010

2 23000 17.11.2010

then total SNP orders qty is 38000 for the day 17.11.2010

while converting the SNP orders to PPDS orders - it should convert two 20000 orders, because max lot size is 20000.

we find one badi for this process : class : /sapapo/rrp_snp_conv

method : rrp_usex_snp2ppds_lots

For changing SNP to PPDS t-code is /n/sapapo/cdpsb0

Thanks

Hi,

Sorry for late reply but documentation is available for the BADI /sapapo/rrp_snp_conv.

In which, Method RRP_USEX_SNP2PPDS_LOTS is used to determine the procurement quantities of the PP/DS orders that should be created through the conversion of an SNP or CTM order.

Also there is no sample code given by SAP but you can loop at IS_SUPPLY table and one by one fill the ET_LOTS with the quantity which you want to create instead of standard split logic.
