how to create reservation using MRP

[Former Member]

HI,

The system is creating planned order instead of reservation during MRP run

What are the setting required to create resrvation instead of planned order.

Hi,

A reservation is not created via MRP in replacement of planned order etc. A reservation is a request to reserve current stock because it is needed for another planned activity, production order perhaps.

A reservation can either be created manually (MB21) or automatically by R/3 for:

Orders, networks, WBS elements: - When an order, a network, or a project is created, the components from the warehouse are reserved automatically.

Stock transfer reservations - If reorder point planning is used at storage location level and the available stock on hand falls below the reorder point, the system generates a stock transfer reservation in the plant for the replenishment quantity.

It is worth noting that you cannot manually process automatic reservations. For example, it is not possible to change reservations for an order directly. You have to change the components in the order. The system then updates the reservation automatically.

Thanks.

hi,

As per my knowledge is always created and the reservation created automatically side by side...This reservation is created by using the normal settings for the reservation and you must set the settings of the AVAILABILITY CHECK...

So whenevr the planned order will get generated for the req. qty, so for that much only, the system do the availability check and if the stock is available on the given dates then the system will generate the reservation...

Hi,

I don't think it would be possible in standard system, since the nature of PldOrd and Reservation is totally different.

PldOrd is a procurement proposal (+ factor on the MRP lis) whilest Reservation is a requirement (- factor on the MRP list).
