schedule line in sales order

[Former Member]

Hello Friends,

While creating sales order, a line item in sales order creates schedule line with delivery date and quantity. How does this happen and what are the criteria to be met to enable this to happen?

Thanks

The schedule line represents the customer intended delivery date and quantity to be delivered.

This information is transferred to material requirements planning. This is known as Transfer of Requirements or TOR.

MRP will then determine if there is enough quantity of stock available for the scheduled delivery date.

If there is stock, then system would confirm schedule lines.

For TOR to be carried out, the following criteria are to be met:

• A plant must be assigned to the sales document line item level.

• The schedule line category must be switched on for the TOR.

• The TOR must be switched on at the requirements class level.

• A checking group must be defined and allocated to the material master record in the sales/plant view in the availability check field.

Hi

As per your answer, TOR should be switched on at both schedule line category and requirements class level.

Why should it be switched on at both places?

Thank you

The requirement class is the key factor in the TOR. It is based on the requirements type for the sales document.

When TOR is switched on at the requirements class level, it can be switched off at the schedule line level.

However, you cannot switch on the TOR at the schedule line level if it is switched off at the requirement class level.

Hello,

Delivery date and confimed quanitiy in a slaes du\ocument is termed as schedule lines. The schedule line category needs to be maintained for the itemcateogry and other combination. The availability check and TOR should be activated for the Schedule line category. As you know the plant should be maintained, checking group should be defined at the Sales Gen/Plant data tab of the material master.
