Issue in individual planned order creation in STO scenario

[krishna_chandra5]

Hi All,

     I will explain you my scenario first.

     This is a repetitive and MTS scenario. I am having 3 plants A, B and C. B and C are ware houses and A is a manufacturing plant. X material is maintained in all the 3 plants and a special procurement key is maintained in B & C which says that part to be procured from plant A (that means to be manufactured in plant A). Lot size is MB in B & C and EX in A, MRP type is PD in all. No min lot size max lot size, rounding are maintained

     After getting sale orders in B & C, when MRP is run system is creating a PR in B & C and planned order with ref to those PR's in plant A.

The issue comes now.

System is creating planned orders in A sometimes by combining both the demands and sometimes individually. Some times it will combine partial quantities from one sale order of B and one sale order of C and creating a planned order.

i am not able to understand on what basis it is combining the demands and creating planned orders. I want the system to create planned orders individually for each plants.

What settings/changes i need to do for achieving this. Please guide me.

Regards,

Krishna Chandra

Hi Krishana,

Try with lot size TB in plant A. Also set individual/collective indicator as 1 in MRP4. MRP run should create separate planned order.

Hi Amit,

     i checked with TB lot size in plant A but still no use.

I don't think the individual/collective indicator will effect my scenario as it is MTS.

Please suggest any other alternatives.

Please check the settings in checking group assigned to material master of individual materials.

Hello Krishna

If there are several demands on the same day, MRP will only create one planned order to cover them. That's according to the system standard design.

Hi Caetano,

     i accept that this is a standard behaviour, but my requirement is that system has to create 2 separate planned orders for B & C plants eventhough the requirement date is same.

Is this possible through any standard configuration?
