Schedule Line Confirmation

[Former Member]

We have an issue with two orders having same material

Order 1

Material=M

Quantity=Q1

Requested Delivery Date=26-02-2010

First Delivery Date=20-04-2010

Confirmation Date =14-09-2010

Order 2

Material=M

Quantity=Q2

Requested Delivery Date=05-07-2010

First Delivery Date=08-09-2010

Confirmation Date=14-09-2010

Requirement type in both Sales Orders is KSV

Why Older Order is getting confirmed so Late

Hello,

Order 1
Material=M
Quantity=Q1
Requested Delivery Date=26-02-2010
First Delivery Date=20-04-2010
Confirmation Date =14-09-2010
Requirement type in both Sales Orders is KSV
Why Older Order is getting confirmed so Late

Please note that for Availability check, the following parameter plays an very important role for calculation:

1. Requirement Type

2. Requirement Class

3. Scedule line Category

4. Checking group in Material Master Record

The complete calculation logic is purely standard by SAP application.So my assumption for late confirmation for the Order # 1 is

When requirement is passed on to MRP for production of the Material in respect to order, there is some time consumption for the production of the material in the inventory or external procurrement.

Hi,

The system does an ATP check which ensures if the material is being delivered thru an in-house production or external procurement, etc. Since the system doesnt find any stock coming in the plant till the confirmation date system confirms the schedule line on that date.

Check MD04 and see if there is any Production order or PO which brings in the material before the confirmation date.

This is to do with settings in Availability check and TOR.
