SCM Don't consider PrdOrd(R) using Multi-Level/Cover Dependents Req.

[Former Member]

Hello all.

My scenary:

Multi-level product with characteristics. Example: Finished

Product>Intermediary 1>Intermediary 2>RAW Material.

In Intermediary2 has a PlOrd(R) scheduled to 28.08.2011.

In Finished Product there is a Sales Order to 07.07.2011.

I ran MRP and DepDMD was created. PlOrd was created too because we using

"Cover Dependent Requirements Immediately".

When SCM reachs Intermediary 2(Where had a PLOrd(R)) he creates another

PlOrd.

All Characteristic is correct(if you compare PlOrd/Planned Order/Sales Order) and if a run MRP only in this level works fine. Only don't work if came from Finished Product to this level.

Until now, i think the problem is with dates. Possibily SCM creates another order if has capacity and the PlOrd(R) is in future.

Anyone has any clue of this issue?

Best Regards.

Hello Tiago.

Yesterday i did a few tests and debugs. And this is a SAP's concept.

Situation before the planning:

For product 10111 there is PlOrd 1886076, which is PP-firmed and

partially confirmed. Thus this PlOrd cannot be moved.

Situation after the planning run:

17.07.2011 05:49:40 PlOrd. 14628852 2.100 0

17.07.2011 05:49:40 DepDmd 14628511/0001 2.100- 0

19.08.2011 00:47:31 PrdOrd (R) 11886076 2.100 2.100

PlOrd 1886076 remains where it was.

A new PlOrd 14628852 is created to cover the DepDmd in time.

The surplus here is not an error.

Now my only doubt if exists some way to change this rule. Maybe changing

Surplus to chain process delay.

Best Regards.

Hi Marcelo,

Have you checked the Pegging tab in Product view? Are Sales Order and the PlnOrder pegged together? if not, then you should allow higher interval for delayed receipts. Then no more PlnOrders are created for this Sales Order.

Hope this solves your Problem.

Hi,

as I can see the ProdOrd is late. so the system will create a new planned order.

You can prevent this by customizing:

Maintain Planning Procedures

Reaction to Events

Action Carried Out by PP When an Event Occurs

Cover dependent/stock transfer requirements immediately with existing receipts

Then the system uses the ProdOrd.

But if there is no receipt for the dependent demand the system will never create a new receipt.

The other option is of course to increase the Alert Threshold for Lateness in the Product Master.

Then the net requirement will find the late production order and does not propose a new order.

When you also want to see the peg in the product view enter the same value for lateness in Maximum Lateness of a Receipt field.
