ATP issue for Deliveries

[Former Member]

Dear Experts,

I create Outbound Deliveries for stock transfer between 2 Storage Locations which belong to the same plant.

(We create an OBD to transfer stock from Storage Locations A001 to A002 both of them belongs to Plant X001)

We use a specific delivery type for this.

In the mean time, we create a Sales Order. ATP check is done at Plant level but the stock that was in "scheduled for delivery" for the Outbound Delivery is not included in ATP check.

Since the Qty against Delivery belong to the same plant, we would like to see this qty to be included in ATP check.

Do we have any customization to achieve this? Can we achieve this without development?

Regards,

Shetty

Hi Shashidar,

I know this thread is different but I did not find another way to contact you?

For your questions below, did u have a solution. We are facing same issue here with PGR through VL32N.

"PU Val. GR Blckd St. exceeded by 4 EA...or what ever quantity"

I did the Goods receipt for first 1st delivery it works fine, but we face this issue for the second delivery onwards for same PO.

Appreciate your inputs.

FYI: We have applied these 2 SAP notes but still an issue:

Note: 1602566

Note: 1627296

Hi,

We found the reason for this.

When We post 107 twice for partial qty and try to PGR in VL32N to post 109, SAP considers the qty against only the 1st 107 transaction. Whatever qty we have in 2nd 107 document apperas as exceeded (error message : GR blocked valuated qty Exceeded by qty).

How can we solve this issue?

If we revrse both 107 and post a single 107 for whole PO qty, then also we get the same error message

Regards.

HI,

I got below explaination from SAP which solved my issue:

According to your description, I do think that you are working with

'GR-based IV'. Could you please check the relevant purchase order item

and see if it has the 'GR-based IV' indicator set (EKPO-WEBRE = X)?

When this indicator is set, the system is able to differenciate between

the individual goods receipts.

Each new goods receipt builds a new GR/IR assignment block which can

be seen in the Scheduling Agreement Item History, selecting the view

for the 'GR/IR assignment'.

The release posting of GR-blocked stock is always with reference to

a specific GR document. You can see this in MIGO, when choosing

"Release GR-blocked" you must always enter a material document.

Unfortunately, in the transaction VL32N we are not able to enter or

select a specific material document, just as we do in MIGO.

This does not mean any problem when we work without the 'GR-based IV'

indicator, because in this case the system does not differenciate

between the individual receptions and all quantities are pooled

together.

However, with 'GR-based IV' the reading of the purchase order item

returns 2 documents: One with 500 EA and another with 50 EA,

differenciated only by the reference document (LFBNR).

However, as VL32N has no information about the reference document, the

program reads the data for the first document only.

Since we are trying to receive 550 EA, the system sends the error

message M7 022:

"PU Val. GR Blckd St. exceeded by 50 EA ... "

When you use 'GR-based IV' you are building a link between all documentswhich refer to the same posting.

When the system was trying to post the movement 109 by VL32N, it was

considering that it had two differents material documents with the

movement 107 to be posted.

The system, therefore, remains focused on the first one: This is the

only way of avoid breaking the link between the documents.

There, are, therefore, 50 EA that cannot be posted as the first documentonly posted 500 EA into the blocked stock, not 550.

If you work with 'GR-based IV' you should consider this limitations,

and, therefore, create the inbound delivery for the same quantity to

be posted into just 1 single material document with the movement type

107 that can then act as a single reference for the movement type 109.

This way the link between the 3 documents will be kept without problems.

Otherwise, you will need to work without 'GR-based IV'.

If you do not work with 'GR-based IV', please, send the message back to

me for further checking.

Please, include in your reply the purchase order number or the

inbound delivery for which you are getting the mentioned error message

M7 022.

Our issue got fixed, we do use GR based IV.

After implementing Note: 1602566 & Note: 1627296 with Confirmation control Key off in PO, I could able to post GR's for multiple deliveries. So we are all set too.

FYI: We are using SIT scenario too, with 681/685/107/109 with in ECC 6.0 EH5

Good luck

Raj K.

Hi,

In OVZ9

For the combination of

Availability check + Checking rule

You can control what kind of stocks can be included in ATP under Stocks

like

Stock in transfer, Incl. Quality insp stock etc.

Hope this helps.

Hi,

In OVZ9, the check box : 'include delivery notes' means include or exlude Outbound deliveries from Availability check right?

If, so, it will have an impact on all kind of deliveries.

We want to Include the stocks in ATP check which are against a perticular delivery type ony, not all.

Please suggest.

regards,

Shetty

[Shiva_Ram]

Check the box include purchase orders in OVZ9 and test again by creating new documents.

Hello Shiva,

How this helps to include stocks in ATP check which are in Outbound Delivery?

I am not refering to the Stocks which are "On order" against a PO. But stocks which are against a perticular delivery to be included in ATP check since the stocks belong to the Issueing Plant

Kindly clarify

regards.

As you should be aware whatever configuration changes you make, you cannot resitrict to one particular document type. If I understood your requirement correctly, you want this control only for a specific document type in which case, I dont think, OVZ9 will meet your requirement. Of course, there if you check the boxes for "Include PO" and "Indlude Deliveries", as I already said, it will work for all documents.

Since your case is only to specific document, I think, you have to go for some exit.
