Delivery lead time for Quota

0 Kudos

Hello,

I have two Vendors for external procurement of a part. I have setup the required master data - Info Record, Source List and Quota. Vendor A has a lead time of 7 days, Vendor B has a lead time of 20 days. Quota for Vendor A is 25% and Vendor B is 75%. When I run MRP, it is splitting the quantities correctly, but the split date is the same for both Vendors.

For eg: if the requirement to procure 100 pcs was on June 15th, the PO for Vendor A should be released by June 7 and for Vendor B is on May 25th. But When I run MRP, the dates for both Vendors is showing up as June 5th (lead time of 10 days from the Material Master)

What settings am I missing to get the above accomplished ?

Jurgen,

Thank you for this OSS note. I had overlooked the Quota arrangement and it was lacking the 'L' indicator for subcontracting vendor. This was setup and it works perfectly.

there is another OSS note specific for 617 which also speaks about delivery time: 1928972 - MD01N: Subcontracting, quota arrangement, production version, planned delivery time

Out of the two vendors, one of them is a subcontracting vendor. I see that the PR is not determining the Scheduling agreement for this subcontracting vendor and hence not determining the info record as well which then pushes the system to consider the material master lead time. Is there any setting to force the system to consider the subcontracting vendor as part of a quota arrangement ?

Hello

In transaction OPPQ, under section "External Procurement", make sure that the flag "Scheduling: Info Rec/Agreemt" is set.

Caetano,

Yes, I have already checked this before I posted the question. The Source List has indicator 1 in the MRP column.

Hello

On this screenshot I can only see the availability date, which should the same for both PRs, since both are necessary at the same time. Can you please open the requisition and check the release date?

In case of MRP LIVE check OSS note 2013021 - MD01N: incorrect information in purchase requisition

Hello Jürgen,

I checked for this OSS note and our system is on Release 617. It is giving a message "Cannot be implemented". So, most likely it has already been taken care of in the previous versions. Anything else that I should be looking for?
