Purchase Requisition in opening period in MD02??

[Former Member]

Hello all,

i have material A with char :

- Procurement type X

- Sched Margin Key 000 (Op Period 10)

- Planned Delivery Time 10

Now, i have made PIR for 3 months, Jan - Feb - March 2011,

When i run the MRP run MD02 using Create PR with in opening period ('2'),

Why is in MD04 when i check the result, it makes 3 Planned Order, not Purchase Requisition??

Thank you all for the solutions,

So i just want to confirm that i have to make the Procurement Type to only "F" (cannot use "X") to get the Opening Period to be PR

As Sundaresan states, with "X" SAP will always select "In House" as the preferred supply source. Change this to F and check again, running the MRP with the indicator "2" for Pur Req.

My ans-With the above setting in Material Master,if you run MRP to get Purchase requisition in Stock/requirements list,you must have the settings like below-

The system checks the planning file

u2022The system calculates the net requirements for every material.

u2022The system calculates procurement proposals.

u2022Scheduling happens.

u2022The system determines the type of procurement proposals.

u2022During MRP run, the system checks some critical situations which need tobe worked manually and hence it creates exception messages.

So make sure you have procurement proposal as "F" or "X" and the "MRP control Paramers" are like-

pro key-NETCH

create purchase req-2

Schedule lines-3

create MRP list-1

planning Mode-1

scheduling-1

please do this and revert.

system will create a PR only for procurement type F, otherwise system will create a Plan order only for that setting

Dear,

An opening period of 0 days means that, together with the indicator "Create req. order" from "2", purchase requisitions can be created only if the opening date is the same as the planning date.

Or if scheduling is carried out on a non-working day, the requirement date is set to a non-working day and the delivery date or start and opening dates are set to the previous working day.

As a result, the opening and planning dates no longer fall on the same day and the system generates corresponding planned orders only.

Please refer the OSS Note 206666 - MRP: Control parameters during planning

Dear Brahmankar,

Thank you for the reply,

But the problem is the Op.Period is 10 days, not 0 days, so i still thought that for the first 2 months, it should generate PR, not Planned Order

Can you help me to solve this problem?

Dear,

Yes Op.Period is 10 days so why that system is creating the planned order. You need to use the MRP control parameter as Create purchase req. = 1 this is only right solution for your issue.

Hope clear to you.

Hi,

Please check the Procurement Type in the MRP2 Tab of the Material Master.

Please maintain 'E' for Inhouse production, 'F' for External Procurement and 'X' for both.

Hope it helps.

Cheers,
