Hi Gurus,
I can see there are only 29 fields given by SAP for BOP Sort Profile and 19 fields for ODL.
How can we add new standard fields to sort profile. My requirement is to add new fields from Standard SAP only.
But I am not able to add them in the sort profile.
Everywhere I can see is to new Z fields with exit only,
Any idea highly appreciated.
Thanks & Regards,
BK.
Hi,
I face an issue I have never seen. In APO, I enter the product planning table with a time horizon from now till August 2017, so more than 24 months.
But in the "product view: periodic" the system displays only 13 periods, despite of the time horizon entered and despite the period type, day, week or month. And I don't know why?? see below.
now on weekly level
any idea where the root cause might be?
thanks in advance,
Pilvi
Hi Gurus,
i want to take planning run based on confirmed quantity of schedule line,right now it is happening on req qty.pls suggest
Hi,
we face big issue with PPMs in APo when the BOM has phantoms and change number is used.
When the BOM has phantom items (phantom bom) and any item is changed using change nr then when ciffing the prod version to APO the ppm is missing the phantom components. Apparently the issue is known that it is not possible to use ppms with phantoms and change numbers.
example.
product 1020
bom:
10. ZRAW
20. ZPAK
30. Phantom
40. ZSFI
if any of the items (10, 20, 30, 40) will be replaced by a new one using change nr, then after night update of ppms in APO the ppm will miss all the components of the phantom bom.
Now we look for best solution considering getting rid of phantoms (business does not like it), stop using change nr, switch from ppm to pds, start using interchangeability groups.
Has anyone faced similar issue? what are your experience with that issue?
I would be glad to hear of any useful hints/ ideas.
thank you in advance!
best regards,
Pilvi
Hi All,
We are having a scenario where CTP creates planned order against the MTO sales order. PPDS will then reschedule all orders based on certain production planning requirements.
Then BOP or executing VA02 is supposed to provide new requirement date based on changed planned order date by PPDS. When we execute VA02 we see that existing planned order /process order is ignored by CTP and it triggeres new planned order creation.
We have all relevant ATP categories included in scope of check. Also there is no "receipt recreate" checkbox selected in check instructions.
Kindly suggest what might be triggering this incorrect behavior.
We are on EHP3 for SCM 7.0.
Best regards,
Vaibhav
We are using GATP with RBA and I have configured PAL as the second step in the checking instructions, but when I enter a sales order and do the availabality check, the product allocation does not come through on the delivery porposal screen. I get the message "Product of item 000010 not allocated". I have set up the product allocation check without direct check of the planning area. I have transferred the allocation quantities to the product allocation group. When I look at the Allocation Overview there is no allocation quantities against the characteristics. Not sure where it goes wrong. Any ideas ?
Hi Friends,
Is there a way to save the simulation schedule so that it doesn't get over written when I adopt a real schedule?
Advance thanks

Hi Gurus,
1. I know how to configure continuous Input/Ouput in PPDS using Master data in ECC but I am confused about when exactly it should be used.
I already went through below links but it did not help much. I can still practically think of continuous output as the stock will be increasing continuously over a period of time but continuous input does not make much sense to me.
Continuous Input and Continuous Output in the Planning Run
Planning with Continuous Input/Output - Processes in Repetitive Manufacturing - SAP Library
2. Can you please give some examples in which a number of resources are involved out of which some are continuous in nature while others are Batch in nature and then how do we decide whether to use continuous I/P and Continuous O/P or not.
Hi
We had a problem about production order.
We run SNP heuristics in APO,and created plan order transfer to R/3,and Plan order is converted to production order in R/3,
But now the problem is ,plan order convert to product order and doesn't transfer to APO,so the plan order is still remain in APO,no production order.
Maybe because of different between APO plan order and transferred to R/3 plan order?
(The product some product orders were transferred to APO,but some doesn't ,so it maybe not because master?)
Do you have any idea?
Is there any way to see what are the planned orders or
products deallocated may be in the Alet monitor or any other place
other than Detailed scheduling planning board seeing in different colour
of deallocated planned order
Please suguest
We have shown planners the "Resheduling the planing run" from 2+week onwards for finite/Constrain planning,but after runnings some planned orders getting deallocated, may be due to limited capacity,so user concern on deallocated orders to aviod ,can you please suguest

Hi All,
I have been trying to remove some obsolete products from the system. Before setting the deletion flag on them I am removing all the dependent data on these products. I am using WUF to identify the dependent data and removing it from the system. I am able to process all kinds of dependent data except for ATP Orders which are not getting deleted by any program.
I have used
1) /SAPAPO/RLCDEL
2) Report /SAPAPO/SDORDER_DEL
3) Report /SAPAPO/DELETE_PP_ORDER
4) Extract the GUID from /SAPAPO/RRP1 and delete using report /SAPAPO/OM_DELETE_INCON_ORDERS
5) Extract the GUID from /SAPAPO/OM16 using order number from WUF and delete using report /SAPAPO/OM_DELETE_INCON_ORDERS
I have tried all the above methods but I am still unable to remove the ATP orders.
I have read on this forum that some of you have been able to delete the ATP orders from system by removing their corresponding entries in table /SAPAPO/POSMAPN.
Any of you who have successfully used this procedure could you please guide me on how to do it and what report or method to follow?
Hi Gurus,
We have a requirement from our users that if a particular Sales Order type (ZEX) gets confirmed once, then it should not loose its confirmation during a BOP run for any other (even Higher Delivery Priority Orders)
So we tried to tweak with our FILTER/SORT in our APO BOP JOB.
Current Scenario
Total Stock = 10 EA
SO1 = ZEX = 10 EA – Confirmed – Delivery Priority = 7
SO2 = ZOR = 10 EA– Unconfirmed – Delivery Priority= 3
BOP runs with Current FILTER
BOP Outcome:
SO1 = ZEX = 10 EA– Unconfirmed
SO2 = ZOR = 10 EA– Confirmed
Working Successfully : an open sales order (any order type) with a higher DP gets the stock & confirmed at the cost of another open sales order (any order type) with lower DP.
Total Stock = 10
SO1 = ZEX = 10 – Confirmed
SO2 = ZOR = 10 – Unconfirmed
BOP runs (with NEW FILTER)
BOP Outcome:
SO1 = ZEX = 10 – Confirmed (ZEX order types should not loose it's confirmation)
SO2 = ZOR = 10 – Unconfirmed
SUCCESS
So we changed the BOP FILTER to make this happen. But the problem is now the next few scenarios are not working at all.
That is any new open Sales Order of ZOR type is not getting confirmed even if there is ample stock.
Total Stock = 5 EA
SO1 = ZEX = 5 – Confirmed 5 - Unconfirmed
SO2 = ZOR = 10 – Unconfirmed
Stock = +10 arrives
BOP runs (with NEW FILTER)
Desired BOP Outcome:
SO1 = ZEX = 5 – Confirmed
SO2 = ZOR = 10 – Confirmed
FAILED!
Actual Output
SO1 = ZEX = 10 confirmed
SO2= ZOR = 10 (all still in unconfirmed status, even though we have 5 available stocks)
Please Gurus have a look & advise if you could understand the problem.
We need to understand if the NEW REQUIREMENTS could be achieved by configuration alone?
Current FILTER
NEW FILTER (In addition to above these also added)
Thanks & Regards

Hi,
I'm trying to do an availability check versus stock, if there is no available stock then I use CTP. My problem is that GATP can't use stock that is already linked to a forecast requirement using dynamic pegging. Is there a way to modify the dynamic pegging relationship using availability check?
Thanks in advance.
Hi,
I have created ODL for BOP and assigned Sort Profile to it. Activated the ODL. I have run the consistency check with /SAPAPO/ODLR also for the ODL.
When I give product and location ODL is not showing any data.
It is suggesting no data is available. Though I can see the orders in APO.
We are not using EDQA. To observe how orders are considered in BOP based on the sort profile we want to use ODL report.
When I try to add the BOP filter variant in ODL with t.code: /SAPAPO/60000142 - Order Due Lists is not accepting. Showing error as no variant exist. Though I have created filter variants for filter types.
I looked into the note: 1105656 also.
Please suggest me how to resolve the issue.
Thanks,
BK B.
Hi,
We use the ECN to change BOM in R3 and this BOM would CIF to APO.
We would use one ECN which the vaild date is in futue to change the BOM at one time.
When today is past the valid date, we found that the PDS in APO can't update auto even we ran the CIF job every night.
Is that a standard we need to manully ran CURTO_CREATE_BOM for this?
Is there any setting in CIF or somewhere PDS can updata automatelly?
Thanks.
What is the full from of HALB(semi-finished) & FERT(finished) ?
Hi All,
we are facing issue with externally procured products in a particular location.
The issue is against the sales order deliveries the pur req's are not getting created.The pur req's quantity is changing and they are getting created based on the demand qty.
The MRP is a background job and once product into a negative stock this automatically triggers a req being created.
But the Pur reqs are not created enough (ex: if del req is -10 the pru req created is 4 some times 3..)
Can anyone suggest why this issue is happening.
Thanks in advance.
