Exercise Objectives

After completing this exercise, you will be able to:

• The goal of this exercise is to transfer an SNP production data structure to SAP SCM and create an SNP planned order using the same production data structure.

Business Example

As planning manager for the Precision Pump Company you are creating SNP production data structures (PDS) in SAP ECC from existing BOMs and routings.

SNP uses the production data structure to determine which components and resources need to be planned.

Task:

In the following exercise, use SAP ECC to create an integration model for an SNP production data structure, and activate the integration model to transfer the production data structure to SAP SCM.

1. In SAP ECC, create integration model GR## for logical system

APOCLNT800 and APO application PDS. Select material T-F2## and plant 1000, then select SNP production data structure with production version 0001, and generate the integration model.

2. Activate integration model GR## for logical system APOCLNT800 and APO application PDS.

3. Check the transferred SNP production data structure for product T-F2##

and location 1000 in SAP SCM. Which components and operations were transferred?

4. Using the new production data structure, create in interactive supply network planning a planned order of 10 pieces outside the production horizon for product T-F2## in location 1000 and version 00. What is the duration of the planned order and what are the dependent requirements?

Solution 7: Creating a Production Data Structure

Task:

In the following exercise, use SAP ECC to create an integration model for an SNP production data structure, and activate the integration model to transfer the production data structure to SAP SCM.

1. In SAP ECC, create integration model GR## for logical system

APOCLNT800 and APO application PDS. Select material T-F2## and plant 1000, then select SNP production data structure with production version 0001, and generate the integration model.

a) Choose SAP Menu → Logistics → Central Functions → Supply Chain Planning Interface → Core Interface Advanced Planner and Optimizer

→ Integration Model → Create

b) For Model Name enter GR##, for Logical System enter APOCLNT800, and for APO Application enter PDS. Under General Selection Options for Materials enter T-F2## for Material and 1000 for Plant.

c) Set the PDS (ERP) indicator and choose the Further Restrictions button. For PDS Type select SNP. For Prod. Version enter 0001.

d) Execute the creation of the integration model using Execute (F8) and save the integration model.

2. Activate integration model GR## for logical system APOCLNT800 and APO application PDS.

a) Choose SAP Menu → Logistics → Central Functions → Supply Chain Planning Interface → Core Interface Advanced Planner and Optimizer

→ Integration Model → Activate

b) For Model Name enter GR##, for Logical System enter APOCLNT800, and for APO Application enter PDS, then choose the Execute (F8) button. Double-click integration model PDS. Select your integration model on the right side and choose the Active/Inactive button. Then choose the Start Activation button. This executes the transfer of the production data structure. A dialog box appears that says, Branch to application log?. Choose No. A dialog box appears that says, Activation or deactivation of the selected models is complete . Both statuses are now green, and the transfer has been completed successfully.

3. Check the transferred SNP production data structure for product T-F2##

and location 1000 in SAP SCM. Which components and operations were transferred?

a) Choose Advanced Planning and Optimization → Master Data → Production Data Structure → Display Production Data Structures SAPAPO/CURTO_SIMU.

b) In the dialog box, enter T-F2## for Product, 1000 for Location, 00 for Version, SNP for Usage, and choose the Execute (F8) button.

c) This displays the SNP production data structure. In addition to the final product T-F2##, you can see components T-B1## (casing) and T-B3## (hollow shaft). In the Activities tab you can find the SNP critical activity "paint".

4. Using the new production data structure, create in interactive supply network planning a planned order of 10 pieces outside the production horizon for product T-F2## in location 1000 and version 00. What is the duration of the planned order and what are the dependent requirements?

a) Advanced Planning and Optimization → Supply Network Planning → Planning → Interactive Supply Network Planning

Open the selection window using the Selection Window icon.

Under Show choose the APO Location Product entry. Version 00 is displayed as a condition. In the next row, enter APO Product again, and enter your product T-F2## to the right of that. Choose Copy.

This copies your selection to the selection window.

Double-click your Product T-F2## for Location1000. The data for this selection is now displayed in the planning table.

b) Go to the change mode by choosing Change. Double-click the Total Receipts row. This makes the key figure Production (planned) appear. The turquoise-colored area shows the production horizon.

In this key figure's first white cell, enter a quantity of 10 and choose ENTER. In the next dialog box, choose Source of Supply with Supply Type PDS, and choose Copy.

c) To find out the duration of the planned order, right-click the cell with the quantity of 10, and choose Display Details. In the order details you can find the start date and finish date on the far right side. The order is exactly one day long.

d) To find out the order's dependent requirements, go to the Select Objects window in the upper left of the screen, right-click your selected location product and choose Show Product View. Double-clicking the planned order with the quantity of 10 in the product view displays the planned order. Here you can see both of the dependent requirements, T-B1## (casing) and T-B3## (hollow shaft), which were created by your production data structure.
