Kanban status change from production order

[gkalem]

Hello,

My client is using trigger-point kanban in production. Basically they are using three kanban statuses: empty, full and waiting. Status sequence is: waiting => empty => full => waiting => empty ...

Status change from "waiting" to "empty" happens when for example 5 kanbans are marked as "waiting" and production order for the quantity of 5 kanbans is created. After goods receipt for production order is posted, kanban statuses are changed to "full". Change from "full" to "waiting" happens manually.

There are cases when production order has allready been created and kanban statuses are "empty" and for whatever reason production order is stopped and marked as "technically completed". Kanban statuses remain "empty", but since they will never get filled by material from production order, for which they have been put to "empty", their statuses would have to be changed to "waiting" again. How can we achieve this?

Thank you very much,

Gligorij

Thank you both. We will try it in the next week since my programers are absent at the moment. Of course I will update you if any of the ideas will work.

Hi Gligorij

Can you please check, the below user-exits available for PP order processing:

PPCO0002

EXIT_SAPLCORE_003 Technically complete
During the Production Order Technically completes, in corporate the required Business logic, to check & Reset the Open Kanbans, pertaining to this Order.
Hope, this my helps you, in achieving the business requirement.
Thanks & Regards : Raja

Hello,

You may try the BAdi PK_MCKANB_FILL or user exit MPKB0001 with your own custom logic.

The Kanban status is to be changed in the background in this case and user exit EXIT_SAPLMPKB_001.

Thanks Raja. Yes, I know this functionality but now I see I have not been clear enough in my question. Can it be done automatically after technical completion of an order? Via some user exit?

It should work like this...there are 5 empty kanbans for production order 100000. Two of the kanbans get filled, their statuses are changed to full. After this production planner technically completes production order. In this moment I would like statuses of the remaining three empty kanbans changed back to waiting. Not manually but in the background.

Hi Gligorij

Status Reset/Revert back to the earlier status can be done using the T code: PK31.
Did you tried with this option ?
