Template allocation values are not updated to production order

[Former Member]

Hi all,

We are using Template allocaton method to confirm the operations, as we are having large number of activities. When we run the T-code CPTA, values updated there, but they were not updated to Production order (reciever) and to cost center (sender). Earlier it was working fine, after month end activities,we are facing this problem , Please can any one help me to find out why  values are not updated to PO and Cost center.

Thanks in advance,

Hi LN ,

Your query is very global one..., you have to check the followin :-

1. Process Order Material has overhead group popultaed and correct template is derived.

2. Check template activation and actual quantity formula , has all the prequisites considered ..

3. Another try you can do , if 1 and 2 are fine , is to try to re-generate the templae ?( Red icon) when doing CPT2 and then try CPTA

Hope it helps

Hi Sarada,

  Thank you for your reply. As you said i have checked all the  config settings once again and re-generated the template even though values are not updated to production order bt values can be shown when i run CPTA or CPTD.

Could you pls suggest me what will be the reason and how the values will be updated to the production order?

Thanks in Advance,

Hi LN ,

Do you understand the formulas in your template. Can you tell me the formulas in your template .. so that i can suggest you.. what to check...

Hi, sarada, please go through the formulaue below, which we have used, and kindly let me knw what to check,

Environment     001           Cost estimate/production orders

Req: Confirmed Qty equals to template activities

Act Qty: RoutingFieldValue( OutputField = RoutingOpConfirmedActy,
                                               ActivityType = 'XXXX' )

last month with same formula template worked properly and values updated in production order also...

Actual Template allocation is with Enviornment = 009 . Env=001 is for Plan/ Std Cost ..

Whats the formula in actual envionrment .. if its the same.. check wether activities are confirmed.. and cost centers have costs.

Also check wether Overhead Group , Key , template assignment all are correct..

Hi Sarada,

   I did  009-Environment Configuration for the actuals but when i executed the CPTA transaction code after confirmation of order(CO11N) actual values are not updating for the template activities. Could you pls suggest me how can we get the actual values in the production order after execution of CPTA.

Thanks,

LN ,

I request you to speak truth and clear. Earlier you mentioned that its working in production last month , now you are saying you created enviornment now.. Do you know how template works.. or else read earlier posts...

Regarding your present problem.. whats the formula in plan , actiual qty and actual activation tab.......

Hi,

Sarada

Actually I am struggling to find out the reason, I am using Template for the first time.

We have created plan and actuals in Environment 001 earlier, All the values were upated properly in CPTA and to the production order after confirmation of activities (CO11N) last month. After month end i.e, this month when we exicuted after confirmation of  CO11N, actuals values updated in CPTA they were not updated to the production order but Template for plan was working fine, this was the problem I have faced. I want to metion that now we are in development testing stage.

But after that as you suggested, I want to do actuals with Environment009, then I did configuration for actuals in Environment 009, instead of changing earlier created template with environment001( deleted it). Now when I tried to exicute  CPTA with layout 009, by default ther 001 appeared and values not updated in CPTA as well as in Production order, then I just want to clarify from you that how can I select layout 009 at CPTA, I did config. settings for template with Environment 009 as I said, I could not find 009 at CPTA.

Req: Confirmed Qty equals to template activities 

For Plan: Routing operation base Qty* Orde Qty.

Act Qty: RoutingFieldValue( OutputField = RoutingOpConfirmedActy,
                                               ActivityType = 'XXXX' )

This issue solved through Environment 001, itself. there is some errors in the CPTA -  GOTO menu- messages i have solved those error, then values are updated in the order. I thank Sarada for her suggestions and I am closing this thead.

Thank you.

Hi Lakshmi,

Sorry I know you have closed this issue but I like to just ask you something and add my experience faced on this.

I notice you solved your CPTA. For actual allocation, do you use function 'Total of routing operations' and pass in the condition = activity type you used and qty = routing confirmed qty? I think this method will not be period based so it will keep posting the confirmed qty regardless of the period that you perform CPTA unless the order is closed as it just take the total routing confirmed qty as long as it meets the condition.

If you didn't have that issue, which function do you use?
