Planned Order transfer from SNP to R/3

[Former Member]

Hi,

We do the planing in our SNP planning book.

When the planned order is transferred from SNP to R/3 through C5 transaction in APO by default it will get transferred to the same date as in the SNP. I.e the planned order date in R/3 and APO will be in Sync.

IN our scenario production is carried n another plant and the GR time to receive the products from the production plant to our plant will take 6 days,

Is there a possibility like when we transfer the planned order from APO to R/3 the date should be automatically adjusted by 6 days in R/3 . ie if the planned order dats in APO is 14th of June , when this is transferred to R/3 it should be 7th of June. We hae also maintained the GR processing time in Product master and also in R/3 material master but it doesnt work.

Can this be achieved thru any user exit ?

HI Valavan.

You can use the inbound processing enhancement for planned orders to modify the header data.

EXIT_SAPLCORD_002

Hope this helps.

Hi,

Thanks for the input.

Can you please provide a detailed information on this.

Hi Valavan.

It is fairly well documented in the R3 IMG:

You use function module exit EXIT_SAPLCORD_002 to change detailed data of the order that is currently being processed.

If this function module is to be run, the following prerequisites must be met.

The data for all orders sent from SAP APO must already have been converted from SAP APO format to SAP R/3 format. This takes place in function module CIF_APOORDER_CONVERT_TO_R3.

In the processing loop, a certain individual order is processed over the orders that are sent. The order header of this order is sent to the function module exit in parameter LS_R3ORD.

In particular, you can use the function module to change the following data for the order:

Order header (table LT_R3ORD)

Order operations (table LT_R3OPR)

Capacity requirements (table LT_R3REQ)

Order components (table LT_R3RES)

Order items (table LT_R3POS)

Relationships (table LT_R3REL)

Note that relationships are not sent from SAP APO by default and so the are not processed in SAP R/3. Capacity requirements are sent from SAP APO, but they are not processed in SAP R/3.

Technical Note

This enhancement module is processed in CIF inbound in the SAP R/3 system. It is called in SAP R/3 using an asynchronous call from SAP APO. You are therefore not using the dialog process and no messages can be issued.

Hope this helps.

Hi Valavan

Did you try setting the GI time in the product master, this should schedule the order to be made 6 days earlier in your production location in APO to meet the requirement date (and I think match the R/3 date you require).

Also I am intruiged as to why your actual production plant is not modelled in APO, is there a business reason for this?
