Planing via MD01 only for one storage location

[Former Member]

Hi!

I have the following setup:

Plant p1 has storage locations sl1, sl2, sl3, ... sl9

In transaction mm43 (display retail material) I can see the following setup of the material:

Dispositionsparameters:

-MRP Type V2, ... and so on

Behind Button MRP/Forecast Data I can switch to for example storage location sl3 and there I can see

Storage Location MRP:

-SLOC MRP indicator = 2

-Reorder point = 50

-Replenishment qty = 70

I think its meant like the following: if the material in storage location sl3 is equal or below 50 then there will be a goods movement from the "main storage location" to the storage location sl3 with 70 pieces of the material. Afterwards there would be 130 in the sl3.

Maybe its a good thing to run "the report" every day in the evening so that the sl3 location will be filled up every day if necessarily.

Now the questions:

Is the transaction MD01 "the report"? I have no chance of setting up the storage location there.

Where can I check whats the "main storage location", the location where the replenishment comes from?

Some of my colleagues mentioned the Transaction MB26 where they check the planed for replenichment materials. Is this at all usefull in this context? They told me the list is reacting very slow... so if they run out of stock of some material then "the list" recognizes this 2 or 3 days later.

I am looking forward to your answers!

Dear Manfred,

Query is not fully understood

is MRP areas activated or MRP is at plant level

if MRP is actived at MRP area level then you can run MRP at certain storage locations

else each & every storage location will be planned in plant MRP area

if you to exclude any Stirage location then in OMIR you can exclude by inputting value as 1

for required storage location

Hi Kumar,

Thanks for caring Lets see what we got:

Customizing: Production/MRP/Master Data/MRP Areas/Activate MRP for MRP Areas: MRP Area active: is not set.

OMIR: The sl3 from my example is set to "2" there.

I would prefere to run the mrp - report (is it MD01?) just for this storage location if possible.

Dear Manfred,

i would prefere to run the mrp - report (is it MD01?) just for this storage location if possible.

what i understand is you want to run MRP for one stoarge location then

in OMIR, for storage location which you want to perform MRP keep it blank

and for rest all storage locations make it 1

so system will take only stoarge location which is blank & does Net. Req calculation

What you setup in OMIR will just be the default for a material master created after this customizing, when an existing material will be extented or a new material will be created.

It does not impact the MRP run directly.

You have to maintain the MRP view in your existing materials for the desired storage location as well. There you have to enter this MRP indicator manually or with MM17.

However, the MRP will in general run per plant, for all locations, it will just plant the locations separatly if the indicator is set.

If you really want an extra run per storage location, then you have to use the user exit (you see the 2 fields at the bottom of the MD01 screen).

the user exit has to be customized in IMG > production > MRP > planning > user exit material seelection

Hi Jürgen,

Dear Jurgen,

Thanks for the reply, i respect you a lot

Agreed what i meant is plant level setting &

at material level we need to do that in MRP - 4 view or in Mass in MM17
