Advance Procurement /Long Lead item

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

We have some long delivery items in BOM for which we are trying advance procurement. We have maintained strategy 70, item category'L' in material master and attached the material to an activity which is 2 months prior to the scheduled production. We generated PR for this item and created PO however during the Project MRP run, system is generating PR again for this item. Please inform which are all the settings required to prevent the PR getting generated again during project MRP.

Any help on this issue is highly appreciated.

Points assured.

Best Regards

Hi,

Check in tcode OPPQ .Select your plant. Rescheduling horizon tab, Input no of rescheduling horizon days.Ex: 100 days.Make tick mark in fixed purchase requirement.

This will solve your problem.

Hi Afroz,

Please maintain individual collective indicator in material master MRP-4 view of the long lead time material to

"2-collective. So that the system will consume the existing stock.

Thanks and regards
