Hi PP Gurus,

I have maintained a Sales Relevant BOM for a Finished Good. How do i set up the material master of the Component and Header Material (MRP TABS) such that when I create a Sales Order for the Finished Good, it automatically creates Purchase Requisitions for the Components WITHOUT running MRP. Then when I receive the purchased Components, I only need to issue them to the Sales Order.

My current setup now is that the components explode in the Sales Order but I need to run MRP to generate PRs for the components and issue them to the Production Order of the Header Material.

I would really appreciate if someone could help me.

Thanks,

Heinrick

Hi Everyone,

In addition, What I have is a configurable material with components are externally procured. Therefore, I want automatic creation of PR for the component upon saving the sales order and when I receive this component, I only need to issue the component Directly to the Sales Order and NOT to an additional production order.

Thanks,

Hi,

Your scenario is like You procure all the required material & sale them without doing any processing (Manufacturing Operation).

If you are not doing any Processing to make finished product i.e. Manufacturing operation then as per my view the BOM creation is not required. You can simply enter all the components in Sales Order. Maintain external procurement in MRP view for these components. Issue all components directly to the Sales Order once it is available in stock.

To create procurement proposals you have to execute MRP run. It will not get excuted automatically. The other option you can do is you can schedule Background Job for MRP at some interval like every 30 minutes.

Please give more details regarding your process. This will help guys to give there suggessions.

Hope this will help.

Hi,

In addition, can you please try the followingu2026

u2022 Check your requirement class

u2022 Tcode OVZG - Add the tick for u2018Automatic planningu2019- under u2018Assemblyu2019

u2022 (The definition saysu2026 u2018If you select this indicator, the system automatically carries out single-item, multi-level planning for a sales order if a sales order item is either created or changed. This function can only be used for make-to-order production)

Thanks

Heinrick,

Hope you are using planning strategy "25", let me give a generic procedure as how this can be done.

You need to identify the requirement type assigned to the planning strategy. Go through the below

In Customizing for Production Planning->Production Planning> Demand Management---->; choose Planned Independent Requirements --> Planning Strategy --> Define strategy)

Here you identify the requirement type used for the planning strategy "25" - Standard requirement type would be KEK.

Next identify the Requirement class assigned to the requirement type "KEK" , I think it would "046", i dont remember so please check.once the requirement class is identified, you need to activate the automatic planning check box for that requirement class.

Requirement class configuration can be found at,

In Customizing (choose Sales and Distribution> Basic Functions> Availability Check and Transfer of Requirements --> Transfer of Requirements --> Define Requirements Classes

Hope this helps...

Yes he is praposh is right. You can use strategy 25, follow his instructions. but check all parameters before changing strategy. Also check costing too.
