Batch Determination - Invalid Batch Proposed

[Former Member]

Dear experts,

During assign batch to some material, the system proposed a double quantity in a different location. one of the location actually does not have the quantity.

eg. system propose a list of item A (batch 123) in location A of 100KG and also item A (batch 123) in location B of 100KG

in MB52, system only have item A (batch 123) in location A for 100KG but not in location B

Found that the 100KG in location B was actually exist due to there is a MB21 reservation of 311 MYT still open with the same batch (123).

Therefore, would like to ask is there any setting or method so that those batch which still not confirmed (location) does not display in the proposed list. Since the stock is not available, system should not have proposed. (although system will prompt error and does not allow the invalid batch to be chosen) TQ

Hi Chuah,

Check OMCP and do not consider reservation in the availability check. Try with this.

Mariano,

Is this highlighted selection to be untick at OMCP?

Other than the "batch determination" option at production order, will it cause any changes to any other function? Would like to check any possible changes (include any other module) and test out before release to live server. TQ

Hi Chauh,

Yes. This box was what I was recommending to exlude.

Chenges in the Avail. Check control (PP / 02) will affect all the materials with availability check 02 in the material master (MRP3) and for transactions running the ATP with checking rule PP (which is used for planning and production, so it is not a problem I think).

Make a test before moving to your production environment.

Kind Regards,

Hi Mariano,

Thanks a lot. After untick the reservation option, it does exclude the quantity in reservation list. Will further test on others impact if any. TQ

Kind Regards,
