Storage location custom determination in MRP both for Make that for comps

[Former Member]

Hi experts,

i have a requirements enough difficult for me and i'm in trouble.

I try to summarize.

i have one sap plant but differents building using different warehouse and work centers. The requirements from my customers are the following:

During MRP run planned orders for make materials have to contain the receiving storage location that may be XXX if make material is used as comnponents in an other planned o production order that uses a work center mapped in the same XXX storage location ord may be YYY if is used in an other planned order/production order a work center mapped in another building/storage location.

Contemporary the issue storage location of the components present in the planned order (retrieved from BOM) have to contain a storage location that depends on the work center of retrieved routing.

Is there any BAdi or other suggestion to do this and obtain it in one run of MRP? also because once modified the issue storage location of the components this will be the input for creating properly the Purchasing Requisition item to the correct Storage location.

Last point is that this logic have to apply also in creating manually a production order or performing a "Read PP master data function" inside a production order not yet released.

Do you feel feasible a development like this?

or do you suggest a workaround?

Thank a lot

Ugo

Ugo, I'm not sure that I understand your question; you maintain the SL in BOM item, or determine via supply area of work center?

Could you please give more details?

Hi,

we do not maintain in BOM or in prod. Sloc. in material master data. The flow is a discrete production wiht SAP-PS so i noticed that supply area in work center doesn't affect the storage location determination. So i need determine with 2 different logic the receiving storage location for the assembly (based on a custom way) and then determine the storage location for the components as the same of st. location linked to supply area in work center (all materials of the bom are linked to the first operation of the routing). The sloc of the components of the bom have to determined in that way because i need that the related purchasing requisition have to be created in the correct storage location (the one of the work center in which the material is used).

Thanks a lot

I'm sorry, but still not clear; are you asking about SL determination of produced material (for GR), or for the components (GI)?

Hi Mario,

thanks for your patience. I need to introduce a not standard logic for both.

For receiving SLOC to drive the production declaration and fot issuing SLOC of the components read from BOM.

For the first one the logichas to determine the receiving storage location of the make depending if the make is used to produce another assembly or not. For the components read from the bom the receiving SLOC (to drive the PO item detail and the good receipts from the vendor the wharehouses have to be determined dependi on the work center in whic the will have to be supplyed at the moment of production).

Thank you

I also am not fully clear on exactly what you are trying to achieve, but could production versions be a possible means to achieve your goal? You can specify separate issue and receipt storage locations for each version. The default for planned orders is PV01, but can be changed manually.

The point is exactly that we do not want to create production versions for business requirements. So i'm trying to find a badi/exit to achieve the goal.

Thank very much
