Stock reservation

[Former Member]

Hello Gurus,

I have a problem with the ATP and the stock reservation in sales orders. I will give you an example of the situation:

We have 100 units of a material in stock.

We enter a sales order for december of 50 units. Run the ATP and confirms the quantity.

We enter a sales order for November of 50 units. Run the ATP and confirms the quantity.

Then, we enter a sales order for today of 50 units. Run the ATP and confirms the quantity.

Now we create the delivery for today's sales order and the system shows a pop up informing that there's no stock available!

Now the user has to go to the future sales orders and change the schedule lines and run the ATP, so quantity confirmed now it's 0. Then, and only then, we can create the delivery.

DO you know how to change this behaviour?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Abel.

  Try this: Go to transaction OVZ9 and click on the line that has the group and rule you are using in your deliveries (usually its Group 02 and rule B, to be sure, open a similar delivery on VL03N, mark an item line and click on Enviroment --> Availability). Then, change the flag for the item "Include sales requirements".

Hope this helps.

Manipulation of confirmed quantity can be done through CO06 (Backorder Processing) instead of going into every sales order and changing the confirmed qty. User can use CO06 for that particular material. double click on the sales order line and edit the commited quantity.

But there may be a limitation; the order needs to be delivered on the same day before a background (if any) Rescheduling program (V_V2) runs for Open orders, as this program will change the confirmation back to the original.

If the business is ready to change the configuration then do what Edson has suggested above.

This is standard behavior. You need to run the rescheduling program (t.code V_V2) in the background to confirm the quantities for the sales orders, which have earlier delivery date.
