Hello Everybody,
I would like to know what are the fields required to be populated in R/3 system (so that i can see the Safety Stock Method as "MZ" in SAP APO.
"For Example: by maintaining a value of safety stock as quantity in Safety Stock field on MRP2 view, system will automatically set SB as safety stock method in APO"
Similarly i would like to know for "MZ".
Best Regards,

Hi,
For Safety stock functions, following standard methods are available in APO:
Static Method : Parameters are defined in the location product master
1. SB - Safety stock from location product master
2. SZ - Safety days's supply from location product master
3. SM - Max. of SafeStk and safety days' supply from loc. prod. master
These can be transferred from settings in MRP views in material masters in SAP R/3- ERP to APO through CIF.
Dynamic Method:
Parameters are defined on a time-dependent basis; meaning that they are defined individually for each bucket in the planning buckets profile.
1. MB - Safety stock (time-dependent maintenance)
2. MZ - Safety days' supply (time-dependent maintenance)
3. MM - Max. of SafeStk and safety days' supply (time-depend. maint.)
MZ - Safety days' supply (time-dependent maintenance):
The safety stock is calculated identically to the SZ method. However, the safety days' supply used is not taken from the location product master data, but rather from a specified key figure on a bucket-dependent basis. Thus, the user is able to manually maintain the safety days' supply for exact buckets.
I hope this helps to clarify.
Please confirm .
Regards
Datta

Does that mean that inorder to maintain "MZ" as a Safety Stock method in APO we have nothing to be maintained in "R/3" ....l
By the above note what i mean is that in order to maintain Static Safety Stock Method "we do maintain some fields in "R/3" system. "I know this"...what i dont know is "are there any fields to be maintained in R/3 in order to maintain "MZ as a Safety stock method in APO system".
From your reply i infer that there are no fields to be maintained in R/3 in order to main tain "MZ" in APO.
All the settings are to be done in APO. Right ?
Please Confirm.
Best Regards,
KING
