Basic Functions Flashcards
Material substitution reasons fields: Strategy
Determines whether the substitution is automatic, provides a pop up for selection, general material determination with selection, without ATP
Sales doc and material determination procedure relationship
You assign material determination procedure to a sales doc type
BOM Group
A way to include or exclude components that belong to a collection of BOM materials. You can add components to a BOM group so that all the BOM materials in the group get the component.
Types of Transfer of Requirements
Individual requirements
Collective requirements
Individual requirements
A TOR occurs for each sales document that is created.
Source document can be identified by looking in the availability overview of each requirement
Collective requirements
Combine several document quantities on certain criteria
Can be done done daily or weekly.
The source documents cannot be identified directly but can be determined from the list of orders for the material
Requirement type, item category, and MRP type
Assign Requirement type to item category and MRP type of material
Material Determination
When a material is entered and it’s not available or being phased out, it can automatically be replaced by another material. Follows a condition technique based material.
Material Determination Configuration
Create condition tables Create access sequences Create condition types Creation determination procedure Assign material determination procedure to sales document type Define substitution reason
Checking group
Controls how requirements are transferred to MRP. More specifically, whether the system creates individual or collective requirements in sales and distribution processing.
Field is called “Availability check” in the sales view of Material Master
Checking rule
What stock types are included in ATP and what kind inward and outward movements are included in ATP calculation
4 moving parts of the Availability Check
Checking group
Checking rule
Schedule line category
Delivery item category
3 ways to trigger availability check
Change the ordered quantity
Change the plant
Manual button
ATP Quantity moves based on…
potential stock changes
ATP Quantity
Current Stock + Inward movement (planned receipts) + Outward movement (planned issues)
Inward movement
Planned orders (internal procured) and Purchase
Outward movement
Sales orders (works like reservations) and Deliveries
Listing/Exclusion
Utilizes the condition technique
Availability check is done at the…
Schedule line category level
Requirement is short term for…
Transfer Of Requirement (TOR)
MRP
Material Requirement Planning
Requirement synonym
Demand
Key inputs of MRP
Current Sales/Demand and Historic sales
Key outputs of MRP
Purchase Requisitions and thus Purchase Orders
Planned Orders and thus Production Orders
Transfer of Requirements
The transferring of the necessary production/procurement requirements of a sales order to MRP.
Copy Control Flows
QT -> OR OR -> LF LF -> F2 RE -> LR (delivery) F2 -> S1 F2 -> LR (IL) F2 -> CR CR -> G2 F2 -> DR DR -> L2
VT(Target)(Source)
Copy Control Configuration t-codes
Copy Control Requirement/Routine
The check on document copy control plausibility
Requirement/Routines
Checks which are defined by code determining whether a process is permitted
Data Transfer Routines
Copy Control Routines which carry specific data from source document to target
Routines for Standard SAP
001-600
Routines for Custom
601-999
VOFM
T-code for creating custom routines
Replenishment lead time
RLT, the time it takes to get the goods ready and available for the customer
Replenishment lead time calculation: Internal Procurement
Current date + production time + G/R processing time
Procurement Type field
This field exists in the Material Master in MRP 2 view
The fields for RLT are set in the…
Purchasing and MRP views of Material Master
Replenishment lead time calculation: Externally Procurement
Purchasing lead time + G/R processing time + Planned delivery time
