APO: RRP3 automate Production order creation from planned order ?

[Former Member]

Hi everyone ,

I have got a business requirement in APO where in Open sale orders uploaded in R/3, needs to be converted to Planned order and subsequently to Production order in APO-PPDS tcode RRP3 at all stages. They want to automate this process rather than doing it

manually.

Can anyone tell how is this possible . Any BAPI or function module available to do this . Please help.

Regards,

Syed

Hi,

1.You need to run the heuristics Planning of standard lots SAP_PP_002 in /SAPAPO/CDPSB0 by specifying the time profile

and strategy profile, planning version and propagation range, product and location.

2. Convert PPDS Planned Orders created to process orders thru /SAPAPO/RRP7 by specifying the product location start date of the order for production order creation.

Out put of step 1- For sales order requirement, PPDS Planned orders gets created.

Out put of step 2- PPDS Planned orders are converted to production orders.

Thanks,

Hi There,

This should be easy. Herez what I see of your requirement -

1. Trigger Event - Create/Change Sales Order

2. Use BAdi (you may have to find) to Call & execute the Standard Lots Heuristics.

3. Use the FM to run the pegging relationship & find the Planned Order created for your Sales Order

4. Use the BAdi (/SAPAPO/RRP_COLL_CONV) to set the "Conversion" indicator. You may have to set your own conditions in the system so that the BAdi is called for specific Sales Orders only & not across the board.

Lemme know if it helps

Cheers
