HOW to run MRP in SAP

How to run MRP for all Products

Step 1) From SAP easy access screen, open transaction MD01, we will run MRP at Plant
level.

1. Enter your manufacturing Plant for which you want to take MRP run.
2. Enter Processing key as “NETCH” (Net change in total horizon)
3. Input “1” in Create Purchase req. Which means for externally procured materials, MRP will
generate purchase requisitions instead of planned orders.
4. Enter “3” for schedule lines which means MRP will generate schedule lines for raw materials
having scheduling agreement.
5. Enter “1” in MRP List and system will create MRP list similar to stock /requirement list for later
analysis of previous MRP run.
6. Enter Planning mode “3” as we will delete and recreate all planning data for all materials.
7. Enter Scheduling indicator “2” which means MRP will do lead time scheduling and consider
routing times to calculate planned order dates.
 After filling in all the fields, click  to go to the next screen.

Press enter to ignore this message.

The system asks you nicely to re-check your input parameter because the MRP run is going to
reschedule and overwrite all existing data. Are you sure??? If so, press enter.

Are you really, really sure that you want to continue??? If so, then again press enter.

Step 2) System will take some time to calculate the material requirement.

1. After the calculation is done, a report will appear. Here, it is possible to see how many materials
were planned and on what parameters were given during the run.

MRP Run for single material
Step 1) In Transaction MD02, we will run MRP for a single material. 

1. Input the material code for which you want to run MRP. 
2. Enter your manufacturing Plant code for which you want to take MRP run.
3. Enter Processing key as “NETCH” (Net change in total horizon)
4. Input “1” in Create Purchase req which means for externally procured materials, MRP will
generate purchase requisitions instead of planned orders.
5. Enter “3” for schedule lines which means MRP will generate schedule lines for raw materials
having scheduling agreement.
6. Enter “1” in MRP List and system will create MRP list similar to stock /requirement list for later
analysis of previous MRP run.
7. Enter Planning mode “3” as we will delete and recreate all planning data for all materials.
8. Enter Scheduling indicator “2” which means MRP will do lead time scheduling and consider
routing times to calculate planned order dates.

 After filling in all the fields, click  to go to the next screen.

 
 The system asks you nicely to re-check your input parameter because the MRP run is going to
reschedule and overwrite all existing data. Are you sure??? If so, press enter.

Are you 100% sure that you really want to continue??? If so, then again press enter.

Step 1) In Transaction MD02, we will run MRP for a single material. 

1. After the calculation is done, a report will appear. Here, you can see how many materials were
planned.

Note : As there are 22 materials available in the plant, so only these 22 materials were planned.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Master Production schedule (MPS) run
Step 1) In Transaction MD43, we will run MPS for a single material.

1. Input the material for which you want to run MPS. Here we have taken ID “13967476”.
2. Enter your manufacturing Plant “INA2” for which you want to take MPS run.
3. Enter Processing key as “NETCH” ( Net change in total horizon)
4. Input “1” in Create Purchase req. Which means for externally procured materials, MPS will
generate purchase requisitions instead of planned orders.
5. Enter “3” for schedule lines which means MPS will generate schedule lines for raw materials
having scheduling agreement.
6. Enter “1” in MRP List and system will create MRP list similar to stock /requirement list for later
analysis of previous MPS run.
7. Enter Planning mode “3” as we will delete and recreate all planning data for all materials.
8. Enter Scheduling indicator “2” which means MRP will do lead time scheduling and consider
routing times to calculate planned order dates.

Click   to next screen after filling all the fields, the system will show message
, click   again, if everything is O.K .Click   to next screen after filling
all the fields, the system will show message , click   again, if everything
is O.K.
 

Step 2) In this step, we are going to generate the interactive planning data by which
simultaneously you can see the planning results.

1. Press “Planning” button which will generate planned orders for the shortage quantity.
2. Check the planned orders generated.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MRP evaluation – Stock/Requirement List
In this list, you will see the requirements, current stock and planned receipts, i.e., orders for the material.

Step 1) From SAP easy access screen, open transaction MD04

1. Enter material for which stock/requirement list needs to be displayed.

2. Enter Plant Code.

 Step 2) After entering information in all the fields, click  to go to the next screen, and
Stock/requirement list displayed.

 Display stock/requirements list of the material is generated, where you can see

o BOM for material D13967476 was exploded and

o Purchase requisition of 50 (fixed lot size 50 maintained in material master code A01232589) was
generated against the net requirement of – 41.606.

 
 

Troubleshooting

There might be the case wherein material master record does not exist. For this, you need to create the
material master for the material before running MPS/MRP.

Ensure BOM and routing data is in place before running MRP to generate procurement proposals based
on requirements at all BOM levels otherwise, Planned orders would be generated without BOM and
hence would create issues in further consumption process.
