Refurbishment order, no Purchase request

[stefan_bogesch]

Hello,

if I create a Refurbishment order (Order type PM04) and  add a Component a order reservation is created. That's ok, so far.

But the MRP creates a purchase request, which should not happen.

If I create a order that is no refurbishment (order type e.g.. PM01) and a the same component, a reservation is also created.

But here the MRP doesen't create a purchase request.

I would like that refurbishment orders also not create a purchase request.

Is this possible? How can this be realized?

Thanks in advance.

Hello,

no suggestion why at order type PM04 is creating a purchase request and at PM01 not?

Hi,

For doing refurbishment process we are going to use PM03 control key with PM04 order type in standard sap system.

I have one query on this, do you want to create Purchase Reservation or Requisition while doing refurbishment process  or not.

Let us know ....

If you don't want to create any Reservation or Requisition please find the below configuration screen and keep never.

Hi,

purchase reservation can be created but no Requisition.

[former_member209020]

If you want to create Purchase Reservation , keep "L" in the item category , then you can find the Reservation created for that particular order.

[stefan_bogesch]

"L" is in the item category

[former_member209020]

Yes keep "L" in the item category.

[stefan_bogesch]

Yes, I already have "L".

Change 'Res/PurRq' to '1 Never' for order type PM04.

Hello Stephen,

why will no purchase request created if I use order type PM01 with 'Res/PurRq = 3 Immediatly' and same component?

[rakesh_mane]

Hello

The Refurbish Material which you are using in Refurbishment work order is subject to MRP run .

Please check material's MRP type in MRP tabs of Material Master (reorder quantity,safety stock)

Hello Rakesh,

reorder quantity is 8 and safty stock is 0.

[rakesh_mane]

Hello

Please create the refurbishment Work Order for other material different from earlier .then check whether its behaving like same way.

[stefan_bogesch]

Rakesh,

[rakesh_mane]

Hello

Br

Rakesh

[stefan_bogesch]

Ok,

I have "Y1 Manual reord.point w. ext.req" at the material with the issue.

[rakesh_mane]

Hello

Please try to use ND type MRP

[stefan_bogesch]

Hello Rakesh,

I tried it with a material with MRP type ND.

A reservations was created and no Purchase Request.

But I'm wondering why order type PM01 and material with MRP type Y1 not creating a purchase request and order type PM04 with same material and MRP type will create one.

Hi SB,

Did you use the same component for both the situation ?

Check the component, whether there is any MRP is activated.

Terence

[stefan_bogesch]

Yeas same component

[tajinder_singh]

In the 'components' tab IC refers to the item category. See screenshot below:

Thanks,

Tajinder

[stefan_bogesch]

Item category is also not 'N'.

[tajinder_singh]

Can you please provide screenshots of the header, components and operations tab of the refurbishment work order where you are facing this issue?

[stefan_bogesch]

Hi Tajinder,

here are the screenshots.

Header:

Operations:

Components:

The issue is at TESTMAT2

[tajinder_singh]

Whether reservation is created or PR is created in a work order doesn't depend on the order type PM01 or PM04. It depends upon the control key used in the components tab. Please ensure that when you are the creating refurbishment order it is using standard PM01 control key and not PM03/PM04 in the components tab.

Hope this helps!

Thanks,

Tajinder

[stefan_bogesch]

Hello Tajinder,

which contorl key do you mean?

[tajinder_singh]

Sorry, I was referring to the control key used in the 'Operations' tab and not components tab. So we create operations in operation tab and assign components to operations in the components tab. I would say that you please check that the control key in operations tab has PM01 as control key.

Also, the item category for the line item in operation should not be 'N' if you don't want Preq to get created.

Thanks,

Tajinder

[stefan_bogesch]

The operation already has PM01 as control key.

Where is item category?
