Parallel Process Option for Optimization in Background.

Hi,

 

I am testing the SNP Optimizer with various settings this week on  demo version from SAP for a client.  I am looking for information that anyone might have on the SNP Parallel Processing Option in the execution of the Optimizer in the background.   The information that I could find is very thin.   I would be interested in any documentation or experience that you have.

 

Sincerely,

PPDS Optimizer - Can it constrain more than one capacity on an operation

January 23, 2014, 9:32 pm

Hello,

I have a question on the capabilities of the PPDS optimizer to constrain multiple resources on an operation. I am going to provide a scenario and two examples.  The difference between the two examples is the Scheduling Basis that you set on the Scheduling Tab of CR02.

Assume you have a workcenter set up in the following manner:

  • In ECC the workcenter has both a machine and labor pool capacity
  • Both of the capcities are marked as relevant to finite scheduling
  • The machine capacitty is avaiilable 24 hours a day, 7 days a week
  • Assume the labor pool is available only one 8 our shift a day and only on Monday and Tuesday

   

Example 1:

  • The scheduling basis is set to labor pool
  • Two order that requires 24 hours of capacity needs to be planned for same day thru the work center
  • After the MRP heuristic(infinite plan), the two orders are both planned with 8 hours on Mon, Tues and the following Monday. It is respecting the 8 hours of capacity available for the labor pool for each order, but the orders are overlapping because it is an infinite plan.  It is respecting the 8 hours becasue the scheduling basis is the labor pool. 
  • Run the Optimizer, The two orders will no longer overlap. One of them will Run after the first Order that is planned Mon, Tue,Mon.

 

Example 2

  • The scheduling basis is set to machine
  • Two order that requires 24 hours of capacity needs to be planned for same day thru the work center
  • After the MRP heuristic(infinite plan), the two orders are both planned with 24   hours on Mon. It is respecting the 24 hours of capacity available for the machine. The orders are overlapping, becasue is an infinite plan.  It is respecting the 24 hours on the machine becasue the schedling basis is machine. 
  • Run the Optimizer, The two orders will no longer overlap, thet will be planned with one on Monday and the other on Tuesday.

 

Questions:

  • Does what I describe make sense based on  the difference being the Scheduling Basis?
  • Is there anyway to make the capacity constrainst of the two capacities be repsected at the same time? Or do you have to pick one with the scheduling Basis?

Thanks

Need a warning message in /sapapo/tl1 and /sapapo/tl3

Hello All,

 

We have a requirement to have a pop up message when a user executes the transaction /sapapo/tl1 and /sapapo/tl3. We frequently get issues where the user by mistake clicks "All Products" radio instead of "Mass Selection" inside the transaction.

 

We tried to look at greying the "All Products" radio button but was unable to find any solution. Has anybody done this before? If yes, can you share the solution?

 

Alternatively, if greying out the "All Products" radio button is not feasible, we would like a pop up message in the below two scenarios.

 

Scenario 1

 

Step1: Tcode /n/sapapo/tl1

Step2: Click on Create or Change button. This should result in a pop up message with a text “Pls do not click All Products radio button”

 

Scenario 2

Step1: Tcode /n/sapapo/tl3

Step2: Click on Change button. This should result in a pop up message with a text “Pls do not click All Products radio button”

 

Can anybody let us know if the above pop up messages are feasible and what is the solution for the same?

 

 

many thanks in advance,

Ehsan Ahmed

Planned Order - Component Deletion

January 25, 2014, 4:55 am

Hi Friends,

I have a requirement in which I need to delete component of planned order.

I found one FM that seems to be suitable for that, /SAPAPO/OM_ORDER_MODIFY, in documentation of this FM it is written as it can be used to delete component, but I am not getting how to do that.

 

In documentation it is written as, "From APO 4.1, you can use ORDER_MODIFY to delete existing I/O nodes as well. To enable this, a "delete record" must be created in the attribute table IT_INPUTS or IT_OUTPUTS, in which the key of the input node or output node is specified, along with the method gc_delete" . I am not getting "along with the method gc_delete". Where we need to set this flag. In which field of that FM?

 

Kindly suggest me, how can I achieve this.

 

Thanks & Regards,

How overlapping of BOM level production (this is not overlapping of operations) can be achieved using CTM PPDS planning

Hello Experts,

 

 

We would like to achieve below scenario through CTM PPDS planning.

 

 

Scenario:- While completing production of entire quantity of one level bom
next level bom  production should started.

 

 

At lower level BOM we need to produce 200 units, but before completing 200
units(suppose we have produce 100 units),
next upper level BOM production should get started.

 

 

Hence this is overlapping of BOM level production. This is not overlapping
of operations.

 

 

Do you know how this can be achieved CTM PPDS planning.

 

 


 

 


 
 

 


 
 

 


 
 

 


 

 

200


 
 

 


 
 

BOM level"A"


 

 

 


 
 

200


 
 

BOM level"B"


 

 

 


 
 

 


 
 

 


 
 

 


 

 

 

Thanks for your help.

Hi

 

When I am running DRP in SAP APO SPP, PR is getting created for the demand. If I am updating the demand quantity, the existing PR gets deleted & a new PR is created for the updated demand quantity. But I want to update the quantity in the existing PR itself. Kindly let me know how it should be done.

 

I know this can be done in MRP by maintaining the planning mode setting in MRP screen.

 

Thanks!

How to lock historical data from changing in Data view

Hi APO Experts,

I am new to the advance macro world in APO and need Expert guidance with the following scenario:

 

There is historical data in our key figures that we need to make sure the values do not change when we run the process chains. I would think that this could be achieve by changing the data view and removing the input date tick mark but it did not work.

 

I have created a macro to see if this will work and would appreciate if the logic and functionality is correct

 

New Step user defined periods to be from P2/2011 to P12/2012 with processing direction in the past

 

ROW: KF attribute:

ROW_INPUT( 0 ).

 

I would assume that this would make those periods non-editable. Note that I need to be able to do this as well when running a process chain thus I will greatly appreciate the advice and guidance.

 

THanks,

Natanael
