Hi,

If you want to consider stock during SOP then you need to use the info structure which is having key figure as STOCK...check the below screen shot...it can be considered during both Standard SOP & Flexible planning..

Hi Kumar,

Please explain the step by step procedure for stock consideration in SOP.

For Ex. PrductGrpop - Material01

This Material01 have 50 (Liter) as existing stock. For month of Jan, 15 the sale qty is 100 (liter).

So it will create production plan of 50 qty & transfer this production plan to MD61.

So Client can sale to its customer total 100 qty from existing 50 (liter) & 50 (Liter) from PIR.

How to Map this process in SOP?

Whichone is better Flexible planning Ya Standard SOP?

Thanks for Guidance.

Hi,

Create a new Info structure with  three key figures say..Sales, Stock, Production Plan...through MC21...

when you create a planning type for the above info structure create a Macro like this

Production = Sales -- Stock.

This will fulfill your req.

Process Flow....

Create info structure – MC21

Activate the info structure – MC22

Assigning the planning parameters to the info structure. – MC7F

Creation of Planning Hierarchy – MC61

Creation of planning type and Macros- MC8A

Calculate Proportional Factors – MC9B

Planning in the planning table – MC93

Copy planning version - MC8V

Transfer planning data to demand management – MC90

Check the below link...

Thanks

Hi Kumar,

Client have 10 Sale office & they collect demand for material at sale office level. Around 5000 material for sales planning.

After that they centralize the all data manually at manufacturing plant

Which Characteristics i have to consider Sale office Ya  manufacturing plant?

For Planning hierarchy it only consider 15 material but client have 5000 material.

Please guide.

Hi,

In flexible planning, you can choose the organizational elements. In your case, you flexible planning and choose the sales office and plant so that aggregation / disaggregation can happen at any level.

Also, SOP is not for generally used for detailed level planning. It is better if you use lowest level as product group level. Sales team cannot give you a material-wise long term plan. The max you get will be at a group level only. So, instead of 5000 materials, your list will be much lesser.

Thanks,

Prem
