BUSINESS BACKGROUND

In make-to-order production, under- or overdelivery

is usual for material handled in pieces/batches If remaining quantity is within the underdelivery

tolerance of the sales order item, further planned

orders or purchase requisitions should not be

created in MRP

SOLUTION

For all the materials in the individual customer

segment (including multi-level) for which the

underdelivery tolerance indicator is maintained, thesystem checks in MRP whether the open

requirement quantity is within the underdelivery

tolerance. If so, the system does not create another

procurement element for this sales order item.

Production of dimensional products often produces a variance compared to the exact volume ordered. It is

not acceptable to have outstanding production or planned orders for minor volume variances.

checks against underdelivery tolerance

It is not possible to have a partial lot quantity less than

or equal to the quantity of the underdelivery tolerance

Delivered quantity outside the underdelivery tolerance:the additional planned order is created for the total

quantity still to be delivered

Fast Data Entry Production Orders

BUSINESS BACKGROUND

Easy and fast entry of characteristics is required

along the supply chain Often a material to be manufactured has similar

characteristics to the materials from which it is

manufactured

SOLUTION

Entry of characteristics and item data on one line in

item overview

Display variants to define sets of characteristics

Maintenance of up to 10 characteristics per item in

one line

Characteristic propagation from components to

items

characteristics on item overview level are also available in business transactions:

Order Combination

BUSINESS BACKGROUND

In the mill industry, different products may go

through common process steps. It is desirable togroup and execute them together. This optimizes

resource usage and reduces order handling for the

user.

SOLUTION

Common operation sequences in different orderscan be combined in one production order.

Combination can be for selected operations (exceptprocess orders) or entire orders.

Operations to be combined must have same baseunit of measure and no gaps in between.

The combination steps are: selection, combinationand scheduling.

- The standard selection procedure consists of the following steps:

- Pre-selection including characteristics selection if necessary

- Manual selection

- Automatic selection using a customer exit

- If you do not want to use the standard order selection, you can use a program to include your own selection

algorithm. This program can perform a customer-specific selection to determine the original orders for order

combination.

The order combination function allows you to combine the sequences of identical operations in a consolidated

production order. You can combine the following orders:

Sales orders

Planned orders

Production orders

It is always the production order that is used for the actual combination. The combination can include individual

operations or entire orders. For this reason, if you are combining sales orders, production orders are created, and if

you are combining planned orders, they are converted to production orders.

Combination

Check against restrictions (see e.g. IMP 100)

Creation of combined order

Reduction of original orders means that there are no longer capacity requirements in the original orders and

components in the original orders are no longer taken into account during MRP run.

Distribution: Costs and Quantities in the combined order will be distributed to the original orders.

A process batch is like a virtualbatch to store information (no inventory data is created; the batch master

serves as the information store).

Process batch management is integrated in the transaction for entering time tickets for production orders

(transaction code: CO11N). Process batch functionality could not be managed outside of this transaction.

Therefore process batches are always linked to a production order.

The process batch is created in this example with reference to the component batches. This allows the

copy of characteristic values from the component batch to the process batch.

The goods issue does not need to be posted before the first process batches are created. Characteristic copy

from component batches is independent from goods issue.

During the confirmation additional process data can be stored through valuation of characteristics.

It is possible to split a process batch into two or more succeeding process batches (later you can merge

them again).

Process data from each operation can be captured at each operation in the process batch rather than only at

goods receipt. This information could be transferred to the finished batch by creating a reference to an

order item or by defining an original batch.

The relationship of the component batches to the finished batches can be n:m (through merging and

splitting).

necessary in production order

Configuration in Make-To-Stock Environment

The modification to the item category and requirements class in SD customizing allows entry of

characteristic values in a MTS sales order. Without APO 4.0 this means that the characteristic values are

not passed to production during MRP and therefore it is useful for batch determination and printing of

documents. However, with APO 4.0 there is now the possibility to have the characteristic values passed to

APO where materials are assigned and pegged based on the characteristics. The values are then included

in the planned order in APO and passed to the production order that is created in R/3.

Trim Optimization Interface

BUSINESS BACKGROUND

Trim Optimization is the task to combine demands for products withvarious attributes so that they can get cut in an optimal way from aninput batch (roll, jumbo, reel, coil)

Trim optimization is a planning task. Significant cost reduction possible

Heterogeneous system landscape; different systems already in place

Trim optimization is not a paper specific requirement (Metal service

centers, foil and textile production)

SOLUTION

Open interface to link 3rd party trim optimization systems to APO

Consistent representation of a trim sheet along the process

Generic scenarios and implementation

Customer order

1

Customer order

2

Customer order

3

Trim optimization systems are today normally part of shop floor planning and execution systems.

Therefore the optimization is done in a short term horizon with no or less feedback into the planning level.

By this it is not possible to get optimal plans along the planning cycle.

In order to improve the quality of the production plan and consider costs on mill and cross-mill level it is

better to do trim optimization as part of the overall production planning. Because production planning is

done in APO, trim optimization needs to be done in APO or with APO as well.

The result of the trim optimization is a planning object called trim sheet. This object contains all the

information necessary to setup and carry out the cutting process on the shop floor. Besides the open

interface in APO, the other part of the solution is the representation and execution of the trim sheet.

Trim sheet order

Trim

1) A trim sheet consists of information about how to cut a jumbo reel or coil into rolls. The position of

each resulting roll across the width as well as along the length of the jumbo/coil is represented.

Additionally the off-cut, or scrap, or trim-loss is described. Also the link to the originating demand and the

dependent demands for the component material is part of the trim sheet.

Each roll coming out of a trim sheet has its own description (characteristics).

The sequence of cuts/rolls between two knife changes is called a pattern.

2) The problem in representing a trim sheet as an order is the fact that the number of patterns is not known

at the point of master data creation. Nor is it known the number of rolls in each pattern nor their

characteristics.

Therefore in APO a so called Template PPM has to be defined. The Template PPM must have as many

operations as the expected maximum number of patterns in a trim sheet is. In terms of output products

either only a configurable product must be assigned to the PPM or the configurable product as well as all

the possible product variants of this configurable product. These possible output products just need to be in

the BOM. There is no need to assign them to each operation.

By the interface an order is created based on the template PPM with as many operations as there are cut

patterns in the trim sheet. To each operation the actual products with their quantities, characteristics, and

eventually sales order assignment are linked.

3) In APO the initial cutting (winder) orders are replaced by one single trim sheet orders. The adjustment

of the plan is done using the normal PP/DS heuristics.

Stock/batch can be assigned in SAP R/3 manually or by means of batch spliti.e. delivery or production order

This stock is no longer available for planning in SAP APO and is assignedaccordingly (fixed pegging) to the requirements visible in SAP APO.

Transfer of SAP APO Pegging information to theSAP R/3 System

Extensions in batch determination functionality to display APO pegginginformation

In the SAP R/3 production/inventory management/delivery process a proposalfor stock/batches, which are pegged by planning in SAP APO, is possible

Before:

SAP R/3 allocations of batches to demand elements not available in SAP APO PP/DS

SAP APO Pegging information not available in SAP R/3 execution

Functionality:

- read actual pegged batches and propose in batch determination

- reduce ATP-Quantity when pegged to a different requirement

Checking requirement different requirement

80 25

Actual Pegging: 80 of batch#1

available Quantity of batch#2: 75

Applications known so far:

Customer Order, Delivery, Production Order, Goods Movement

Def. Pegging

Procedure in Production Planning and Detailed Scheduling (SCM-APO-PPS) that establishes the

relationship between receipt elements and requirements elements of a product within a location. Using

pegging, the corresponding receipt elements are assigned to the requirements.

Two types of pegging are available:

Fixed pegging With fixed pegging the assignment of a receipt element to a requirements element

remains fixed during planning.

Dynamic pegging With dynamic pegging the assignment of receipt elements to requirements elements

can change depending on the planning situation.

When this function is used, the end-to-end consistency

of fixed pegging cannot be guaranteed.

Fixed pegging (manually fixed and also automaticallyfixed) is lost in certain situations. However, if you use a

suitable planning heuristic (e.g.

/SAPAPO/EOGL_LENGTH_01), the system can

recalculate this information at any time.
