Procurement Type "X" in MRP 2 view

Former Member

The SAP documentation says that when I have a choice between manufacturing a product OR buying a product the default is that MRP will create a planned order for the manufacturing choice. Procurement type = x (both)

In my particular case, the manufacturing process is Repetitive manufacturing. Since I do not actually convert planned orders into a production/process orders for Repetitive Manufacturing, what SAP behavior should I expect?

Hi Mangalraj,

Thanks for your reply and the link.

I went through the link and I didn't understand few things in it. As per Mr.Pradeep Kumar thread. he mentioned about the material with two Production versions and quota arrangement. I didn't understand why we need to maintain two PV's and the link with Quota Arrangement. He also mentioned about the creation of planned orders and percentage after the MRP run can you please clearly explain what he means by this. Please also expalain what Quota Arrangement does.

Because even in our project all the HALB materials are having Proc type "X" and having two PV's..but they are not using any Quota arrangement.

Regard's,

Uday.

Dear

Procurement Type clasify the material to be manufactured In house or External or Both.After that , sytem also checkI the Work Schedulig view for all in house produced material after PT.

If you maintain REM profile and mark REM manufactruing at material master level , then it will generate Run Schedule Qty upon running MRP on the Deamnd and you create Production Order refernce to the RSQ .So there is no requirement of Planned Order here even , this is one kind of manufacturing process .

Hope it clears to you

Hi Uday,

system behaves the same way as it behaves in discrete mfg when you maintain procurement type X in MRP 2 view. As you said you are not converting planned order to production order but bottom line is we assigned planned orders to production line where the it changes to run schedule quanties and system creates the REM order type for settlement. so in REM mfg also orders are created.
