Hi,

If client wants the system to carryout the availability check at quotation, so that the exact scheduled delivery dates can be shown to its customer in quotation, we can cangigure scheduline line category to carryout availability check.

Material determination also can be carrried out in quotation.

Hi Sai,

Material determination can also be used at the quotation level thatz correct but the actual question was can we use availabilty check in Material determination?

I think and I belive that availability check can be done in Material determination and product selection

anyway if there is some error then let it be known

reward if it helps...

Hi,

Yes you can do Availabiluty check in Quotation.

You only need to create a schedule line catg that checks availability, does not pass requirements and has no MVT assigned. You then need to assign this Z* Sch ln catg to your quote item catg (AGN) and it should work.

the other question.....was your question related to material detr in sales order or Quotation. the availabilioyt check is carried out for the substituted material (can also be activated for Quotation)

Hello Shabnum,

Contrary to the above views, i believe that both Availability check and material determination can be used in quotation. It can actually be configured according to the customers business requirement.

imagine a situation where customer's requirement is time bound............then he may want us to quote the delivery date in the quotation iteself................so that if he is satisfied with the delivery date we have quoted in quotation - only then he will place an order if not ............NO. then in that case you may need Availability check functinality to arrive at the delivery date.

Similarly, Material determination can also be used at the quotation level.

I believe any functionality provided in Standard SAP can be manuplated according to the client's business requirement. Thats the whole purpose of SAP.

Hi Shabnum,

No you cannot do that..there are fuctions where we cannot use availability check..

They are listed below...

<b>**PLEASE REWARD POINTS IF THIS HELPS YOU**</b>

Availability Check

ATP Check

SAP ERP handles online availability check for sales order, including shipment and transportation scheduling, and the resulting information is transferred back to sales order.

Availability Information

Displays product availability for items in a sales transaction (e.g., quotation). The products are not reserved, and requirements are not transferred to production or purchasing.

A connection of an SAP APO system to an SAP R/3 system is not permitted.

The following processes in SAP R/3 in combination with availability check using SAP R/3 are not supported:

• Batch processing

• Assembly production

• Rules-based ATP check

• Forecast

• Product allocation

• Starting production from availability check

• Any type of material substitution in SAP R/3

• Third-party processing

• ATP check of subitems

• ATP check of items in the quotation

• Immediate delivery

• Route determination or schedule

• Manual change of plant in the sales order in CRM Enterprise

• Partially delivered items

• ATP check in SAP APO

• Rescheduling

• Individual purchase order

• Material determination and product selection

• Free goods (that is, the inclusive bonus quantity)

• Material listing and exclusion

• Delivery groups

• Configurable products

• Total requirements
