Hi All,
We are using SCM 5.0 and want to have multiple production version/ PDS in APO with quota arrangement 50% of supply using one production version and 50% other production version?
How to achive this as quota arrangement for PDS in Vendor location is not getting considered by SNP heuristics.

Hi Santosh,
We do have similar requirement to split the supply with two different subcon PDS for same vendor based on the inbound quota arrangement.
Was curious to know, if you were able to achieve this. If so, please share the details.

Hi All,
After going through Some OSS notes I could find that inbound quota arrangement can be used at vendor loaction for subcontracting planned orders only to manage validity. It is not possible to split supply and get it from two different PDS using quota arrangement.
Now we have requirement to use multiple subcontracting production versions to spilit supply and choose different subcontracting PDS using defined quota . Can it be achived using some enhancement or work around? Has some body done it before? Please share your inputs.

Santosh

Hi Santosh,
I never tried this scenario. But I could think of a solution for this. Since you are saying you will have 2 PDS at vendor location, there should be 2 Subcontracting Purchase Info Record. I assume this because, in a purchase info record, only one Production version can be assigned.
So, if you have 2 PI Records, then you will have 2 external procurement relationships in SAP APO.
With that you can setup quota arrangement at your Plant. SNP should respect this quota maintained at your plant level.
Please try and update.

Thanks for reply Manimaran.
We do not have two purchase inforecord as vendor and header material is same. We have two BOM has component material supplied to vendor is different and we need to have subcontracting purchase requisition genrated according quota arrangement with two different BOM/production Version. I cannot create quota arrangement at plant as only one T_lane or external procurement relationship will be there. At vendor location two PDS are available in APO.
I agree somehow need tospilit STR quantity at plant based quota arrangement at vensor location? What are ways to do this.
Hi Santhosh,
How did you get 2 PDS at subcontractor location? My understanding is that if there is no Purchase Info record with Production version assignment, we could not transfer the Subcon PDS.
I also understand, since the vendor and material are the same, we cannot create more than one Info record. So, per vendor, it is possible to get only one PDS in APO.
Could you please let me know, how did you get 2 PDS in APO at Subcon location?

Hi Manimaran,
We first assigned one Production version info record and transfered it to APO. Then we removed refirst production version from info record and transfered second one and moved it to APO. SO now in APO we have two PDS at vendor location. While manual creation of subcontracting STR from plant to vendor system lists both PDS as option and we can choose whichever we want based on choosen PDS planned order is created in vendor location. Once these STR are transfered to ECC its showing correct components based on PDS selected.
Also in updated version of ECC and SCM7.0 there is option of assigning multiple production versions to purchase info record. Currently we are not using this. Problem is we cannot split subcontracting STR based on quota arrangement at vendor location?
