Planned orders for small remaining SO quantities not desired

0 Kudos

Hi all,

I have faced a tricky situation and may be you could help me to handle it properly.

When manufacturing in a Make to Order scenario sometimes the Production Order is Goods Receipted for a lesser quantity as compared to the Production Order/Sales Order Quantity.

e.g. Sales Order Quantity = Production Order Quantity = 1000kg & the Delivered Quantity (GR qty in the production order) = 990kg

In such a case, a new MRP run is generating a new planned order for the remaining qty (10Kg in the example).

Is there anyway to avoid it? I mean, if the manufactured qty is close to the sales order it is not desired to have a planned order just for a so small qty.

Thanks in advance!

Hello

There is a feature in SAP S/4HANA that might resolve this issue.

In the lot-sizing procedure customizing (transaction OMI4) there is a flag called underdelivery tolerance which can be set to allow this remaining quantities to be ignored by MRP.

If you are still using ECC, this features is only available in the DIMP industry solution.

Hi Caetano,

It works at Sales Order+Position level perfectly. Thanks a million!

Is there any way to get a similar behavior at forecast scheduling lines level? I saw it takes the whole scheduling lines quantity for a Sales Order position to calculate if a new planned order needs to be created, but not able to make it working scheduling line by scheduling line independently.

Thanks again!

Regards,

Jose.
