Which of the following MRP elements can be created for a material procured externally by a requirements planning run? Production order Planned order Sales order Purchase requisition Purchase order Outline agreement. Select the possible planning levels for consumption-based planning. Company Code Plant Warehouse MRP area. Consumption-based planning procedures are normally based only on material consumption. True False. In forecast-based planning, you can consider external requirements. True False. In MRP, planned requirement quantities trigger requirements calculation. True False. In the reorder point planning MRP procedures, procurement is triggered when the sum of plant stock and fixed receipts falls short of the reorder point. The reorder point should include the expected average material requirements during the replenishment lead time plus a safely stock to safeguard against uncertainties. True False. During net requirements calculation of a material planned with reorder point planning, the warehouse stock available for MRP includes the plant stock and the on-order stock. Which of the following elements belong to on-order stock? Purchase requisitions Purchase orders Sales orders Firm planned orders Fixed purchase requisitions Planned orders. During backward scheduling for a material planned with reorder point planning, the system defines the date on which the material will be available, starting from the date of the planning run. Starting with today’s date, the availability date is calculated by adding the purchasing department processing time (in working days), the planned delivery time (in calendar days), and the GR processing time (in working days). True False. The total planning run can be carried out online or in the background processing mode. True False. Which of the following are options in the SAP system for executing a planning run? Single-item planning (single-level or multi-level) Multi-item single level background simulation Total planning online Total planning in background processing MRP Live. How is the planning horizon calculated? In calendar days In workdays. The following describes the individual subprocesses of a planning run: Check the planning file, net requirements calculation, lot-size calculation, scheduling, and type of procurement proposal determination. With the corresponding settings, the system determines a source of supply during a planning run for externally procured materials, and assigns them directly to the procurement proposal. True False. The low-level code is the lowest level in which a material appears within any bill of material (BOM). True False. The low-level code which is used during the MRP run is automatically determined and it is displayed in the planning file. True False. How many processing keys for the planning run are available? One Two Three Four. Which one is the correct processing key to use if you want to trigger regenerative planning? NETCH NEUPL. The creation indicator for MRP lists determines if and when the planning run should create MRP lists. True False. The MRP group is assigned to the relevant master record according to the material type. True False. Plant parameters have higher priority than MRP group parameters. True False. What are the options for converting a planned order into a purchase requisition? Individual conversion Collective conversion Conversion by storage location Conversion by purchasing group. The MRP list always displays the stock/requirements situation at the time of the last planning run, and also provides a work basis for the MRP controller. True False. In a navigation profile, any number of transaction calls can be defined. True False. Exception messages are created during the planning run for situations that need to be checked by the MRP controller. True False. You can control the period in which you want to forecast in the material master record using the period indicator. True False. Which of the following forecast models is characterized by a continual increase or decrease of the mean value? Constant model Seasonal model Seasonal trend model Trend model. In the absence of historical data for a material, you can perform the forecast with reference to the consumption values of another material. True False. Which of the following inputs are required to determine the new basic value in a forecast with first order exponential smoothing? Basic value from the preceding period Last past consumption value Mean absolute deviation Alpha smoothing factor. What are the options for performing a forecast in the SAP system? Total forecast online Individual forecast Individual forecast for a material without a material master record Total forecast in background processing Individual forecast in the material master record Interim forecast. You can enter the number of periods for initialization in the forecast view in the material master. True False. What is the minimum historical value required for the seasonal forecast model? 1 3 13 15. Which of the following indicators do you use to define the number of forecast periods that are to be considered in material requirements planning when using forecast-based planning? Safety time indicator Splitting indicator Forecast indicator Consumption indicator. Which of the following steps are involved in backward scheduling? The system determines the release date of the purchase requisition backwards from the requirements date. The purchasing department processing time, in working days, is added to determine the release date. The opening period is counted back from the order start date. For a start date in the past, the system automatically switches to forward scheduling. Which of the following is the correct algorithm for determining the time interval during the time-phased planning run? MRP date + planning cycle + purchasing department processing time + goods receipt processing time MRP date + planning cycle + purchasing department processing time + planned delivery time + goods receipt processing time MRP date + planning cycle + planned delivery time + goods receipt processing time MRP date + planning cycle + purchasing department processing time + planned delivery time. The planning file entries for NETCH in the planning file are important and need to be set manually for MRP-relevant changes. True False. During manual reorder point planning, you define the reorder point and the safety stock in the material master. For automatic reorder point planning, the reorder point and safety stock are automatically calculated by the system during the forecast run. True False. Based on the historical values, the forecast program calculates forecast values for the future requirements for a material planned with reorder point planning. True False. The reorder point comprises the safety stock and the average requirement in the replenishment lead time (RLT). Reorder point = safety stock + Average daily requirement * RLT. True False. Select the possible sources of supply that can be used by an MRP run for an externally procured material in the SAP system. The purchasing information record (inforecord) Sales order Contract Means of transportation Scheduling agreement. Using the allocated quantity in a quota arrangement, you can distribute a procurement proposal over different sources of supply. True False. Select the correct and available system options for automatic source determination during an MRP run. Use the source list to assign a source to a purchase requisition Use a quota arrangement for automatic source determination during MRP Use an existing production order to automatically select the right ‘source’: the plant is which you want to produce the material Use a special procurement key called SRM to let the MRP run automatically select a source of supply based on SRM quotation processing. MRP areas can only be specified within a plant. True False. How many subcontractors can be included in a subcontractor type MRP area? 0 1 2 Unlimited. Receipt elements (planned orders, purchase requisitions) containing a storage location that belongs to an MRP area are assigned to this MRP area automatically. True False. |
