Assigning calender to vendor

[Former Member]

Hi Freinds,

Every vendor has its own working days and holidays. For example vendors in japan has its own working days so does vendors in other countries. Is there a way to assign country factory to vendors eg in vendor master record.

Hi Sanjay ,

No such facility provided in Standard SAP .

Kindly let us know why it is required and how it benefits you .

Once u order goods stating ur requirement for a particular delivery date , later it is vendor's headache to plan and deliver it to you .

You can create Planning Calendars Transactions MD25 and assign these to materials. For materials you purchase from Japan you can have a different one, the ones you purchase from taiwan can have a different one.

Once you have created your planning calendar you need to do the following :-

In MRP1 Lot Size should be PK

In MRP2 Planning Calendar should be the ones you have created.

Description of Planning Calendar

You use the planning calendar to define flexible period lengths for

planning and procurement in demand management and in MRP. For this

purpose, you can maintain period splits of your choice (for example,

Wednesday to Tuesday). If you work with the planning calendar, you can

also display the period totals display in the MRP list or in the

stock/requirements list according to your planning calendar periods.

Example

If, for example, a vendor always delivers his goods every second

Wednesday, you can use the planning calendar to define a period length

of two weeks starting on the Wednesday and ending on the Tuesday, two

weeks later. The period lot size can also be set accordingly so that, on

the one hand, the requirements are always grouped together within the

defined period length, and on the other, the order proposals are planned

in such a way that the delivery date lies at the end of the period.
