1 GENERAL

1.1 Summary

This paper describes in detail the creation of an integrated SCM model. After attaining the normal APO courses you can use this description to create a small model for your testing.

The description does not contain an explanation WHY specific action are done, only HOW.

1.2 Purpose

The overall goal of this paper is to provide a full data-set for an integrated scenario within APO.

The data and test-scenarios should be used to create an own APO-model. This paper is supposed to be another APO for dummies-guide and therefore will also include examples for specific problems.

The model and the simulation version are not 000, since we do not consider the integration with R/3. The master data description includes also an XX. Replace XX with an appropriate number.

Because of the APO system is always under development, it could be that the current view is slightly different to the scenario described in this paper.

Please check for updates on http://intranet.sap.com/de-scm-consulting. This scenario can be found under the entry Training.

If you have any suggestions, enhancement requests or questions please contact Lars Vogel. (mailto:[email protected])

You are more then welcome to contribute.

1.3 Scope

Right now this paper covers:

Master data generation within APO

DP

SNP

CTM (Capable to Match)

PP/DS

BW

Alerts handling

Supply Chain Cockpit

Plan Monitor

TP/VS

BW reporting on SNP planning areas with remote infocubes and remote infocubes.

Collaboration

Manual planning in SNP

The appendix covers for example the following general topics:


The usage of R/3 Office (for project documentation)1

The usage of SAP Query.

The usage of the computer aided testing tool (CATT).

How to do a performance analysis.

In addition useful definitions / techniques are defined in the appendix, e.g. the definition of user function macros, the definition of a demand planning job, important test report etc.

Installation of the ITS server.

1.4 Model Overview

The following figure illustrates the structure of the APO scenario.

Figure 1: Model Structure

1.5 Remarks

Abbreviation TA will be used for transaction.

Since the following includes a lot of configuration, try to find logical steps, e.g. the master data and SNP configuration and test what you have created.

1 Even though this is not APO specific its quite useful.


Please log on to the system in ENGLISH, otherwise some examples will not work.

Nice transactions: o STERM for translation words

o SEARCH_SAP_MENU to find menu entries in the SAP menu.

1.6 Online Help

1.6.1 Help Portal

You find the online help under http://help.sap.com.

To display the online help for a specific transaction, please select the menu entry, press the right mouse button and select display documentation.

This will bring you to the correct entry in the Help Portal.

1.6.2 Field help

Please press F1 on the field to get a explanation of the field purpose / content.


Figure 3

1.7 APO Transactions

To enter an APO transaction you always have to use /n in front of it, e.g. TA /SAPAPO/MAT1 must be entered as /n/SAPAPO/MAT1.

1.8 Customizing Request

Depending on the system settings (record changes) you might have to work with customizing requests.

Create a new customizing request to gather the changes you made in one system. This information can later be transported to another system.

This way you customize your system once and after testing your bring your changes into your test / consolidation and production system.

Press F1 in this field

Planning version: contains all the version specific master data and the transactional data.

2.1.2 Generation

Although in a real implementation we would use the active model and version, we will still create our own model and version for separate testing.2

Use TA /SAPAPO/MVM3 to create the following model and planning version.

2 R/3 is only integrated with model and version 000. 3 Report /SAPAPO/VERSION_COPY allows you to copy a version (or /SAPAPO/VERSION_COPY_TRANS for a new copy into an existing version).

2.2 Planning Calendar

2.2.1 General:

Create time streams by using the TA /SAPAPO/CALENDAR.

Figure 12: Create Time Stream

The following time streams should be created:

Time stream: Non-Workdays: Factory calendar

APO-T1-XX Saturday, Sunday 01

APO-T2-XX Sunday empty

APO-T3-XX Saturday, Sunday, Monday, Thursday empty

Table 3

Follow the example and just change the included days, e.g. the first calendar does not include Saturday and Sunday as workdays, the second has only Sunday as a none working day etc.

3.5 Production Process Models for SNP

3.5.1 Overview

Based on the experience with this subchapter, this chapter is sometimes confusing.

Please read it through and follow the provided example.

In general, the usage is S.

Figure 57, Figure 58 and Figure 59 try to represent the production process of the end product P-F01-XX . On the left side of these diagrams you see the used resource on the right side the activity. Circles represent an activity on one resource, while squares represents materials.

A square with an outgoing arrow indicates that it is used as an input material, a square with in ingoing arrow indicated an output material.

If an input material is gray filled then it is an material with external procurement.

Use Table 15 to identify the material inside the figures.

3.5.4 Information:

CTM can plan bucket-orientated or time-continuous. The bucket-orientated approach creates production order for every day, while time-continuous can produce planned production that can overlap days. To respect the capacity consumption and if you want to plan time-continuous than you have to use PP/DS PPMs otherwise you can use both.

Only one mode (=resource) is possible inside the SNP-PPMs. Alternative modes are supported by CTM.12

Note: In SNP and CTM all input components need to be on the first activitiy and all output components on the last activity.

Note: The consumption type for input components should be S (Start) and for the output components E (End).

3.5.5 Example:

Use TA /SAPAPO/SCC05 or the following path.

Figure 60

Type in your PPM name and select usage S.

12 An alternative mode in one PPM allows the change the resource. This is used by CTM to select the next resource if the first one would be over-utilized by additional production.

3.6.4 Mass creation of transportation lanes

This mass creation is an alternative method of creating the transportation lanes. If you reached this point you may have created all transportation lanes already .

In case you are lucky and didnt do it yet, just go on with TA /SAPAPO/SCC_TL2.

Prerequisite for using the mass creation is one existing transportation lane.


Figure 91

Figure 92

Save your settings as a variant and create your transportation lanes one by one (or make multiple lines at the same time if it makes senses.


Each new lane is an exact copy of the template, thus individual maintenance may be required. However, product procurement entries are only copied if the product exits at both locations. So add the missing information if necessary.

Go to the Transportation Lane sheet in the Supply Chain Engineer and double-click on the lane you want to change.

3.7 Quotations

3.7.1 General

The location C2XX will source 30 % of its demand from D1XX and 70 % from D2XX.

Maintain therefore the correct inbound quotations.

Note: A common misunderstanding is that quotations are needed to perform network planning. This is not true, since all engines can work with other master data, e.g. procurement priorities or costs.
