Hi Everyone,

I am trying to delete all the master data from APO. Can anyone provide me the process for it. thank you

Hi,

Typically following are the master data objects in APO in SNP, PPDS, GATP modules:

u2022 Product

u2022 Location

u2022 Transportation Lane

u2022 Production Process Models / Product Data structure

u2022 Resource

First you will have to delete all the transaction data for these objects.

There is an option in transaction /SAPAPO/MAT1 to find depedent objects: Where-used analysis.

The tranactions for maintaing these master data objects have options either for setting deletion flags( Background job will have to be triggered after for actual deletion ) or direct deletions

You will have to make sure that any CIF transfer from SAP R/3 is stopped for the objects.

In APO demand planning there are CVCs and in the maintenene transaction itself, we can delete these.

I hope this helps.

Please check and confirm.

Regards

Thanks a lot DB49 / Datta,

I am actually clearing up all of the APO data and planning to CIF the new data from ECC. Is there any other option if I want to clean up all of the data. Also we are just using SNP and only external procurement. We do not have any in house prdouction.

Thanks again..

Akshay,

You must first delete any transactional data before underlying master data may be deleted. I work in PP/DS mostly, here are the steps I use. For a production sized system, I allow myself 3 days.

ERP - Deactivate all CIFs

SCM - Run Delta reports (transactional data) /SAPAPO/CCR - CIF_DELTAREPORT3. Delete items that have no active models.

SCM - Report /SAPAPO/DELETE_PP_ORDER u2013 delete all production, including external.

SCM - Report /SAPAPO/SDRQCR21 clean up any inconsistent requirements

SCM - Report /SAPAPO/SDORDER_DEL clean up any old sd orders

SCM - Correct LiveCache inconsistencies ALL data Txn SAPAPO/OM17

SCM - Delete all PPMs (ERP Production Versions). Mass tool SAPAPO/PPM_DEL For difficult to delete PPMs, try to delete all operations, save, inactivate, then delete.

SCM - If there are any existing orders which are preventing the deletion of any PPMs, you will have to find them using SAPAPO/OM16 and delete them using /SAPAPO/OM_DELETE_INCON_ORDERS. This is a last resort!

SCM - Delete existing PP Resources Work Centers and transportation resources.

SCM - Delete External Procurement relationships (purchase info records) - SAPAPO/MTI2

SCM - Delete Transportation lane material assignments,

SCM - Delete Manual Reservations. No Standard program, use SE37 /SAPAPO/DM_RESERVATION_DELETE, enter name of source system, blank for 'all' under IV_DELNR, otherwise do one-by-one.

SCM - If any remaining orders prevent deletion of product masters, try /SAPAPO/VS_CONS_CHECK

SCM - Run Safety Stock heuristic to remove SS requirement elements.

SCM - Set deletion flag for Product-location, and location, using MASSD, then run program to delete in background. Check for remaining dependencies/ leftovers using WUF. You can actually delete product and product location using WUF, but you can only delete a few thousand records at a time with WUF time or you may get memory ('no roll') dumps.

SCM - Delete leftover Locations using WUF
