Default PV to order

[former_member224727]

We have multiple PV for the material in our system. Per SAP design it default to version 01 to the order. Since version 01 is used for costing our CO team don't allow to d o any change to it. Version 02 is copy of 01. So whenevr there is any change they assign PV 02 to the order and make necessary change.

Now request is how can we default system to assign version 02 always? Do I have to do any development/enehancement or can I achieve with standard?

Hello Eric,

In costing view assign the production version 01.

For production version 02 define quota arrangement for product in MEQ1 and active the quota usage in MRP2 view. And in MRP4 view define BOM selection by Production version Only.

Ignore my earlier reply. I resolved that MEQ1 error.

Now I created quota arrangement as following and assigning to material master.

Now I'm creating order with 1000 KG but some how system still defaulting PV 0001 to order,. What am I missing here?

Hello Eric,

Have you defined the quota usage in MRP 2 view?

Don't use minimum split quantity as you want want to split.

Then create PIR run the MRP and check the results.

Hello

Please take a look on the following note, regarding quota arrangements on MRP:

1508647

MRP does not consider the quota arrangement

In addition, you should consider that MRP checks the quota arrangement validity agains the requirement, not with the replenishment proposal. Therefore, if you have a requirement in the past, system will not consider the quota arrangement.

This is basic concept of MRP as MRP always select lowest numeric or alphanumeric PV code available in the Production version selection screen. By default will try to choose first version during MRP run for the planned order creation. It can be controlled by defining lot size e.g. 1 to 75,000 LB PV01 and 75,001 to 150,000 PV02. So whenever system try to create Planned order with lot size less than 75000 LB, it will select PV01 and if it more than 75,000 LB it will select PV01. But again it is depends on lot size and MRP types maintained in the material master and associated master recipe lot lize selection. if lot size is fixed and you have only one range of lot size, then you can go for an option of User exit but may be that will hits performance as you might have scope of planning activated and it will be applicable for all material planned under scope of planning..

so check the business requirement and use the solutions suggested as above or by Caetano Almeida. This scenario/requirement work very well using APO PP/DS.

Hi,

standard option:

you can set  prod version

locked  for any usage it will not consider for mrp

make all costing pv  locked  for any usage if required

We have multiple PV for each materials, but out of those we wanted to default 0009. If I set ver 01 to locked then MRP will use PV 02 which is next available but we wanted to use 09 only. How system to default PV 09 in order.

Do we have any setting where we can define PV which is MRP relevant?

Hello Eric

MRP generally selects the first valid production version.

If you have several production versions and your planned orders are created by MRP, you can use a quota arrangement to define which production version is selected.

Otherwise, you can implement a custom logic on BAdI MD_MODIFY_PRODVERS, which is available on the standard system to influence the production version selection.

Not sure if I can use quota arrangement in this case. Check my reply below regarding MEQ1 error.
