how to generate distribution receipt (subcontracting planned) for subcontracting material

[sumaghosh]

Hi Team,

For a subcontracting material with procurement type F and special procurement "30"-Subcontracting.

how to generate Distribution receipt. We have tried running location heuristic in planning book but it doesn't help.

Error we receive says : There is no valid PDS/PPM at subcontracting location.

Thanks.

Dear Thanks,

apart from what you already have the followings things are needed in APO:

1) transportation lane from subcontractor to plant with subcontracting indicator set <-- in ECC you need a purchasing info record of category subcontracting for the finished good. Afterwards generate/activate an integration model for purchase info records.

2) product master at subcontractor

3) transportation lane from plant to subcontractor to provide the components to the subcontractor

4) PDS at subcontractor location

2), 3) and 4) can be generated automatically. Just generate/activate an integration model for PDS with flag "SNP-Subcontracting". You need to have a production version in the plant.

5) execute SNP-heuristic in a planning book which has the subcontracting key-figures available, like 9ASNPSBC or a copy of it.

Good luck implementing this, Nico
