Storage Location MRP with Special Procurement

If you have set an MRP indicator for storage location MRP, you can control how the system is to procure the material by entering a special procurement type at storage location level. The following special procurement types are available at storage location level:

Special procurement types at storage location level

Special procurement type	Standard key in Customizing
In-house production	-
External procurement	-
Procurement via consignment	10
Subcontracting	30
Stock transfer	40
Production in an alternative plant	80

If you enter no special procurement type at storage location level, the material is procured by a stock transfer reservation from the plant to which the storage location is allocated.

The following is carried out in the planning run:

For every storage location whose stock is planned separately, the system compares the reorder level with the stock level of this storage location. If the available storage location stock is less than the reorder level, the system creates a receipt at storage location level for the amount of the replenishment quantity or for a multiple of the replenishment quantity. The order proposal is either a purchase requisition, a planned order, or a delivery schedule and it refers to this storage location. This means that you can trigger either internal or external procurement for the special storage location.

When creating an order proposal, the system takes the quota arrangements and the source list into account.

The source list can refer to either a contract or a scheduling agreement.

• If the source list refers to a scheduling agreement, the system only takes the scheduling agreement if the storage location recorded in the scheduling agreement corresponds to the special storage location in the material master record.

• If the source list refers to a contract, the system only takes the contract if the storage location that is recorded in the contract is either blank or if it corresponds to the special storage location in the material master record.
