Exercise Objectives
After completing this exercise, you will be able to:
• trigger replenishment with KANBAN with scheduling agreement schedule lines
Business Example
The PC component T-TC## is provided for WIP production in supply area T-P6##. Replenishment is to be carried out using schedule lines from vendor 2 (Electronic Components Distributor).
Task 1:
Create a scheduling agreement for supplier 2:
1. Logistics → Material Management → Purchasing → Outline Agreement → Scheduling Agreement → Create → Vendor Known
Vendor: 2 (Electronic Components Distributor)
Agreement Type: LP
Agreement Date: Today
Purchasing organization: 1000
Purchasing group: 007
Delete the contents of the remaining fields and choose Enter to access the header of the scheduling agreement.
Validity End: End of next year Choose Enter.
Continued on next page
Material: T-TC##
Targ. Qty: 2000 pieces
Net price: 69
Plant: 1200
Storage location: PL06 (to see this column, you may have to scroll right)
Select item 10 and choose Item → Details
Tax Code (in the section GR/IR Control): VN Set the Unlimited indicator.
Choose Enter.
Select Item 10 and choose Item → Additional Functions → Additional Data In the Kanban Indicat., choose X (Replenishment Element for Kanban).
Go back to the item overview.
On setting a kanban to empty, the delivery address for the schedule line is transferred from the scheduling agreement. Therefore, you can maintain the exact delivery address in the schedule line item. Therefore display the delivery address:
Item → More Functions → Delivery Address
Save the the scheduling agreement and note the scheduling agreement number that is displayed in the lower area of the screen:

Why do you have to specify the receiving storage lo-cation and the plant in the scheduling agreement item?

Task 2:
Now create a control cycle for material T-TC##and supply area T-P6##.
1. You are already familiar with the menu path.
Material: T-TC##
Plant: 1200
Supply Area: T-P6##
Control cycle category: Classic KANBAN
SCM350 Lesson: Replenishment Strategies for Kanban Without MRP
No. of kanbans: 5
Kanban quantity: 20 pieces
Select Ext.procurement and select strategy 0002 (Schedule line).
Choose Enter, enter the number noted above in the Agreement field and add the item (for example, by choosing the input help (F4)).
Save the control cycle and note the control cycle number:
________________________________________________
Task 3:
Now go to the demand source view of the kanban board for supply area T-P6##.
1. In the kanban board, set all 5 kanbans for PC component T-TC## to empty.
Examine the result in the stock/requirements list.
Which and how many replenishment elements were created by setting the kanbans to EMPTY? What is the available quantity of material T-TC## at storage location PL06?
________________________________________________
Task 4:
Assume that the supply source has delivered two kanbans. Manually post a goods receipt using two kanbans:
1. Menu path: Logistics → Materials Management → Inventory Management
→ Goods Movement → Goods Receipt → For Purchase Order → PO Number Known
Goods receipt for purchase order: Enter the scheduling agreement number and item number you noted (on the previous page).
Important: Under Settings – Default Values, the “Suggest all items” indicator (upper right) must be set.
Choose Enter.
The system proposes the complete quantity (100 pieces). Under Qty in UnE, enter 40. Set the indicator Item OK.
Choose Save.
In the following dialog box you must decide which kanban you want to fill with the goods received. Accept the proposal by choosing Copy.
Examine the result in the stock/requirements list.
Continued on next page
According to the final backflush, what is the available quantity of material T-TC## at storage location PL06?
________________________________________________
Task 5:
Assume that the supply source has delivered an additional kanban. This time, instead of using the goods receipt posting in Inventory Management, use the manual kanban signal. Change the actual quantity to 18 pieces.
1. Menu path: Logistics → Production → KANBAN Control → Kanban Signal → Manual Entry
Material: T-TC##
Plant: 1200
Supply Area: T-P6##
Kanban number: 003
Actual qty: 18 pieces
Choose Save.
Examine the result in the stock/requirements list.
How has the stock/requirements situation changed? ______________

Save the the scheduling agreement and note the scheduling agreement number that is displayed in the lower area of the screen:
________________________________________________
Why do you have to specify the receiving storage lo-cation and the plant in the scheduling agreement item?
________________________________________________
a) The plant and storage location must be specified in the scheduling agreement item, because the goods receipt will take place in this storage location in the plant.
Task 2:
Now create a control cycle for material T-TC##and supply area T-P6##.
1. You are already familiar with the menu path.
Material: T-TC##
