Possibility to block stock provided to vendor partially in MRP

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

My client's requirement is that some of the stock, which is lying at vendor premices should not be considered in MRP. The reason for blocking is e.g expiry date is very close or damaged etc. Vendor is also using SAP. How this scenario can be mapped?

Hi Murugan,

Vendor uses the same client.

In customing we are considering stock supplied to vendor in MRP but in our case we want to block the partial supplied quantity in MRP & consumption due to some reason.

Can you pl. suggest how can we map this scenario?

Thanks,

Vijay.

HI,

I think if u maintain the shelf life expiration date check(SLED) in material master, once the material shelf life expires the material will not be considered for the MRP run.

hi,

As per my view, the material never gets auto deleted for MRP...You need to run consistency check and Set up in bakground ie. MDRE and MDAB for general material...

Now in your case, the material is lying at customers place...so, once you set the material master record with the MRP indicator and special stock indicator, the system auto considers the material for the MRP...

Now suddently when you don't wanna have the MRP for this material...you only need to remove the MRP indicator from source list...by this system will not be able to find any possible source and will not do MRP for the material....

But directly based on the Quality its not possible to stop...

When the material gets damaged, you shd screap either at vendor's place or at your Own place...

Thanks for the inputs.

Just to clarify more on my point, SLED option is already being used. The reason for blocking is, if expiry date is less than say 2 months then client wants to block that material. However it can not be scrapped because it is then used to prepare some another material (low grade).

So here requirement is to bolck only materials (in MRP) having SLED less than 2 months. One more requirement is that if vendor supplies this material by mistake then system should not allow to consume it (i.e use in production).

Thanks for your inputs so far.

But need more inputs to solve this problem completely.
