Shift production plan

[Former Member]

Hii experts!!!

1) We are in to repetitive scenario and working on 4 hrs inventory (You can say we work on JIT supplies)

2) We get firmed customer plan in a day advance, and a tentative plan in 15 days advance.

3) We enter the plan in system in JIT delivery system by delivery time .

4) After that, MRP run.

5) If I check that production plan in MF50, by selecting shift wise plan, it gives only one shift.

How can I get entire production plan and actual production shift wise?

Worthwhile to mention that I have already defined the shift system.

Hi Kapil,

If you want to get the shift wise production plan from MRP <b>then it is not possible</b>. MRP will not consider the capacities to create planned orders.

Now after MRP you will have to o the capacity levelling to get the proper prosun plan. You will also do the need to identify how best to create the shift wise plan. Actually it will boil down to manually creating shift wise production plan. YOu can utilise the priority field in the production order to identify the shifts if a order last only one shift. Similary you can utilize the reason for movement field to capture the actual produn done in the each shift.

Hope this helps.

hi vineet,

I knw, that MRP meant for generating requirements and nothing to do with shift production plan. But in MF50 tcode you can select your production plan shift wise. But I am surprized to see only one shift if I select "shift" in period as told by Mr.Pradeep. Can anyone quote the logic of showing shifts in planning table (MF50).

Well for your efforts, I am awarding you points, but my problem is still unsolved. I think, I need to take some help from my ABAPer. Wat say?

Hi Kapil,

You may create each shift as a Production line. for example you create "Production Line A" for "shift A" like that.

You can see the production plan shift wise by entering the respective production line.

thanks and regards

Hii SAN!!

Thanks for your suggestion, but my clients wants to see all three shifts in one go. And moreover, we have already developed number of production lines to process our goods on different stages. One more thing, at the moment in SAP, we can see material distribution my follwoing ways - (check T-code MF50)

1) Production line

2) Work Center hierarchy

3) Material

4) Product Group

5) Class

6) MRP controller

In additional selection, one can choose PERIOD tab and select the drop box "period" as shift.

Now please comment on it again...thanks for replying!!!

hi kapil,

If u want to use this option, u have to do following settings

1.In the initial screen, in the "Period" tabstrip, you must set the period to shift.

2 .In the initial screen of the planning table, in the "Scheduling" tabstrip, you must select the option Production dates.
