Sub contractor stock consideration

[Former Member]

Dear SAP Friends,

While taking MRP run,the requirement were generated without considering the stock at Sub-contractor.

As we send the same material for machining operation at 2-3 sub contracors.

We take MRP run through the MD01(as scope of planning setting are here)

All 3 plants were take under the planning scope( X ).

No MRP area defined separetly.

Make to stock scenario here.

What customisation setting we will required to consider the subjected matter.

Please guide,& reply soon.

Regards,

Chandra.

Dear Chandra,

Special stocks are not considered for MRP run. Subcontracting stock is a special stock(O), hence is not considered for MRP.

Hope clear to you.

Hi,

You need to define MRP area for vendor subcontracting. then run MRP for this MRP area it will work for you.

Hi,

You can have a separate dummy plant as subcontractor where the stocks will be stored ( that will be as Subcontractor stock).

U can include that plant in ur MRP RUN.
