Sto. Loc. level GATP check with Storage location exclusion indicator

[Former Member]

Hello Team,

Need expert opinion on below issues.

When Storage exclusion Indicator is set in MM02-MRP4 view & storage location ATP check is active, ATP check in ECC and APO are behaving different.

In ECC, When you check this indicator - stock in the storage location is excluded from MRP and ATP check. When  (no storage location is specified in sales order) in ECC. When you specify storage location in sales order, stock in storage location is considered to give confirmation. Same does not happen in case of GATP check.

GATP does not exclude the storage location stock for the indicator set, automatically, We need to implement user exit for excluding stock from GATP by deleting in CIF or changing the ATP category.

I have created ZC category for such stocks and it is not part of scope of check. When excluded storage location is not mentioned, it works fine, when excluded storage location is mentioned in sales order, it does not give confirmation. As all stock has been moved to ZC category which is not part of scope of check.

Ex :

MAT1 - in Plant P1-SL1 = 5 

            in Plant P1-SL2 = 10

            in Plant P1-SL3 = 8 - Indicator set

in ECC

Sales ord - MAT1 PL1 = Confirmation is for 15

Sales ord - MAT1 PL1 - SL1 = Confirmation is for 5

Sales ord - MAT1 PL1 - SL3 = Confirmation is for 8

in APO-GATP

Sales ord - MAT1 PL1 = Confirmation is for 15

Sales ord - MAT1 PL1 - SL1 = Confirmation is for 5

Sales ord - MAT1 PL1 - SL3 = Confirmation is for 0 ( that is the difference)

All ideas are welcome to get similar results!!

Hi Dinesh,

since standard GATP cannot acheive this, what i would do is that. i will build a Ztable in APO which defines SL3 = ZC and so on and then during ATP check , you have defined Check control with the same ATP Group + BE ( another one) , you call the ZTAble and then manipulate the check control. This should be possible, you need to sit with ABAper to find in which place you can build this. we had build a  class ZCL_MTO_LEADTIME to acheive a similar issue.

hope it helps.

Thanks Rorie for the response!!

There are couple of issues

1- Storage location is not fixed, it is based on Material master indicator.

2- What do you mean by SL3 = ZC

3- Somehow if we give confirmation by calling different scope of check, it will create requirement element at plant level.. For next order at plant level, order confirmation for specific storage location will be part of cumulative qty and stock will not be part of cumulative ATP qty.

4. Could you please share user-exit where you change check control.

Hi Dinesh,

i was giving you a hint based on  "When you specify storage location in sales order, stock in storage location is considered to give confirmation. Same does not happen in case of GATP check."

1 - yes

2 - you have created a different category ZC for stock which is not part of scope of check, so these stock category can be part of SL1, SL2 or SL3. when you have defined a storage location in the sales order and when the stock category is ZC then you are not getting a confirmation. when you a ZTAble in APO and when during ATP Check, the storage location mentioned in the sales order will look at the Ztable.

3- you are wanting to confirm the orders which you want to confirm with stock category ZC.

4 - cannot share./

its just a suggestion, may be there is some other approach, you may have to try it out with ABAper.
