MRP Support Cockpit in S/4 HANA

[Hannes2808]

Dear Colleagues,

SAP has published a report called PP_MRP_SUPPORT (Note 3199068), which can assist in analyzing issues that may arise in the MRP environment.

The report provides access to:

• MRP-relevant material master data,


• Sourcing Master data for in-house and external replenishment


• Implemented User Exits and BAdI's(w/o AMDP BAdI's)


• The ability to navigate to customizing settings


• MRP Background Jobs


• MRP Consistency check


• Navigation portal to helpful transactions

The report is quite user-friendly and self-explanatory:

MRP Master Data in the Plant / MRP Area

Display of Production Version, BOM Headers and Routings

 

Sourcing Data like PIR, Quota Arrangements and Source-Lists

Implemented User-Exits and BAdIs

Scheduled Background Jobs (MRP Live vs. Classical MRP)

In addition to its other capabilities, the PP_MRP_SUPPORT report also has the ability to perform a detailed consistency check on customizing settings, number ranges, and master data.

Additionally, the report also includes links to the following transactions:

• DBA Cockpit (DBACOCKPIT)


• MRP Customizing (OPP1)


• Custom Code Analysis (/SDF/CD_CCA)


• MRP Live Settings (PPHMRPSET)


• Details for Materials in MRP on HANA (MD_MRP_FORCE_CLASSIC)

 

In my opinion, the PP_MRP_SUPPORT report can be a useful tool for monitoring the health of the MRP and for understanding MRP results based on the master data.
