Hi:

Here is all about sceduling aggreement:

Scheduling agreement: A scheduling agreement is a form of outline purchase agreement under which materials are procured on predetermined dates within a certain time period.

We can release JIT or Forecast schedules through scheduling agreement & also can be generated automatically through MRP.

Advantage of scheduling agreement:

1) Reduce processing time - (PO /Contracts Rel order replaced)

2) Schedule line is a part of agreement hence less paper work

3) Low warehouse stock & better Inventory management (As JIT possible)

4) Since long term commitment better Negotiation possible commercially.

Steps to create SA

1. T code : ME31L ( Type LPA)

2. T code M33 > Follow on function > Del schedule > Maintain ( Me38)

3. Change Sch Aggreement ( ME32L) > main Sch agrement schdule> Generate JIT sch & Forecsat sch

4. Output message

5. MIGO

6. MIRO

Hi,

Here is all about Quota arrangement :

Following are the configurations.

1) To specify number range for quota arrangement

SPRO > IMG > MM > Purchasing> Quota arrangement> Define number range (Int or Ext)

2) Set Quota arrangement usage indicator:

SPRO > IMG > MM > Purchasing> Quota arrangement> Define quota arrangement usage

On Application side following are the prerequisites

1) Create Quota arrangement

SAP Menu> Logistic> MM > Purchasing> Master Data> Quota arrangement > Maintain

2)specify procurement type : Int / Ext

3)Where appropriate specify the special procurement type For ex stock transfer

4) Enter the vendor or supplying plant

5) Specify the quota you want to assign to this source

Please understand terms as below,

Quota Rating = Quota allocated Qty +Quota Base Qty /Quota

Quota Base Qty: Quantity used for manual control of the quota Arrangement (For example new source is included)

Quota: Number that determines how requirement are apportioned among various sources .Decided by a Purchasing people based on confidence on source.

I source determination source with lowest quota arrangement will always be assigned

Example

Source Quota allocated Qty Quota Rating

M 1 100 100

N 2 150 75

O 3 75 25 *

In above case vendor O will be assigned as low Rating *

Now quota Base Qty will come into picture when new supplier is introduced. As you have seen that vendor with low quota Rating is assigned .In case of new supplier as no allocated qty earlier its Quota rating will always be low & all Qty will be allocated to him. To prevent this Base qty is added to allocated Qty so that accordingly it will determined accordingly

If Quota base Qty is 100 & quota is 2

For new vendor X rating will be

Quota rating = 100 + 0 / 2 = 50

I hope this gives you entire clarity.
