Explode LUMF material in scheduling agreement

[Former Member]

Hi SAP experts,

In short: Is it possible to have LUMF materials explode in a scheduling agreement?

At our company we have a lot of projects. We are in the process of selecting an appropriate way to handle these in SAP. We came to the conclusion that a scheduling agreement could do what we want.

Unfortunately we discovered a problem in our current configuration with respect to scheduling agreements and LUMF materials.

When we add a LUMF material to a standard SD document, the LUMF material explodes in all the necessary materials.

When we do the same in a scheduling agreement we get the error that the T 184 table does not contain a position type for ZLZM LUMF.

Would it be possible to configure this? Could you give us a clue on how to make this possible?

With kind regards,

Nanne Sluis

Hi,

I am also facing similiar issue.

in sales order, it is able to explode and picking is done at component level.

However, if used retails POS (testing done with WPUK), it is not exploding.

instead it is asking to deduct stock at header level which is generic.

Anyone can advice how to configure it such that at sales, it will take the header component price but in inventory, it will deduct the component item stock.

Thanks

In Standard SAP--it is not possible..

U must use Enhancement..if required

Ok, this sounds disappointing. What is the reason that it is possible in a SD document and not in a scheduling agreement?

[Former Member]

In case of subcontracting process only it is possible in purchasing

---> subcontra..with SCH agreement.

Thanks for your answers. I am not sure if we are talking about the same here. I get the feeling you are talking about scheduling agreements for vendors.

I need sales scheduling agreement as described in http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp2005/helpdata/en/33/4361299d7a11d194e200a0c9306794/frameset.htm

We are currently using quanity contracts but they lack a delivery date and MRP relevance. In the SAP help it is in this case described that you need a scheduling agreement.
