MRP controller and planning calendar

[pdenicolas]

Hi, all!

For the MRP controller XYZ, we want the reception date determined in the system to be always either Tuesday or Wednesday. Therefore, if the system determined a Thursday for example, then it would be changed automatically to the next Tuesday.

The goal is for MRP controllers to not be constantly checking the date of the reception.

I think that the solution is creating a new planning calendar with tcode MD25, and then assign to MRP controller.

I have created the following Planning calendar ABC:

But then, I'm not able to add it to MRP controller with tcode OMD0. So, my first question is, is it possible to assign the planning calendar to a MRP controller?

If yes, I understand that it will be enough to have MARC-DISPO = XYZ populated.

If not, do you have any idea what should I configure? Do I need to assign directly the planning calendar ABC in the field MARC-MRPPP = ABC?

Which fields are involved on this configuration?

Thank you for the help!

MARC-MRPPP is from the MRP2 view of the material master. You can assign the planning calendar there.

But there's a possibility to add the calendar to the MRP controller?

Hello Patricia,

such assignment is not possible in SAP standard.

However you can use BADi MD_CHANGE_CALENDAR to implement own logic in Materials Planning (MRP and LTP).

Hello Patricia

You cannot assign the planning calendar to the MRP Controller in standard.
