Hello

When there is a problem during the MRP execution, system triggers an exception message to inform the planner that something is wrong and these exceptions can be displayed on transactions MD04 or MD05.

On transaction OS23, you can select one of these exception messages to be displayed if MRP tries to explode a BOM with a specific status. This is useful to inform the planned that the BOM is still under construction, for example. Generally, statuses S1 and S2, which are related to BOMs are used.

Hello

My material status is "1" where no Exception message is been assigned. But Still i can able to see Exception message ID "10-Bring Process forward & 07- Finished Date is in the past" to that material in MD04.

Is this message is displayed bcz of Scheduling. If so what Conf. setting control this behavior or this is in-build (Programmed) in SAP.

In other-words, How to avoid this warnings via Exception message in MD04..

Hi Dinesh,

These exception messages are pre defined in SAP and meant to inform MRP Controller about the event happened during MRP run. It also help controller to take action on such procurement elements.

Even if you do not assign exception message ID to BOM status, system will still release these exception messages in case there is some issue during MRP run. Either to inform user to take action or just for information purpose. Controller can later consolidate such materials together and take appropriate action.

During MRP run system carries out multiple activities in background, example net requirement planning, Lot size calculation, BOM explosion, scheduling etc...In case of unusual event for MRP relevant material, system issues a exception message at the end of MRP run. It could be related to lot size calculation or scheduling or any other process.

Lets take a case of 07 - Finished date in past, this happens when system carries out as scheduling of procurement proposal (say planned order) and finds during backword scheduling that Start date is falling in past. Now based in setting in customizing, either you can allow system to create order with past date or you can inform system to create order on today's date.

This way you can have different parameters or setting to take action on such exception messages.

Hi Dinesh,

In order to stop specific Exception message in MRP run, you need to go to transaction OMD3. Select a perticular exception message and mark below indicator:

Please note that these settings are not plant specific and changes in SAP standard keys should be avoided.

Hello

Exception messages are very important to keep the planner informed of possible issues during the MRP run.

Exception message 10 is triggered during the rescheduling check and it means that the replenishment proposal should be rescheduled to met the requirement date. Take a look on the following WIKI, which explains the rescheduling process in more details:

Hi,

Via MD06 we can get the list based on Selection ID of the Exception msg (i.e., 1 to 8).

Is there any possibility to drill-down further to Exception msg no. (e.g., 64 which is under selction ID 3).

Hello,

Inside the MD06 you have option to sort it as per your requirement.

Or header menu MRP List--Print and then filter it out.

Hi Dinesh,

Yes, In MD06 you can select exception messages based on message number. To do that, execute MD06 , once you have the complete list, click on search button or press (Ctrl + F). On the pop-up, go to tab "find exception". Select your exception message and press search. System will provide you the list of list of materials with exception message. refer to below screenshot:

Also you can try print transaction MDLD.

If you want to have a separate list for each exception message then you need to create custom report.

Hi,

Fine. Thanks U.

In MD06 speaks for material.

Is any other tcode to which directly take to planned orders with exception msgs. Bcz a planner is supposed to reschedule planned orders only.

Hello,

You can use Transaction OS23 to maintain the exception message for the BOM status, when the BOM status is used in material BOMs and the exception message is displayed in the MRP list accordingly.

For example 'Inactive' to a status 'Inactive with exception message'

For more details please refer 367614 - Inactive order BOM vs material BOM
