Which lot-sizing procedures are suitable for reorder point planning? There are 3 correct answers to this question.
- Monthly lot size
- Replenish to maximum stock level
- Lot-for-lot order quantity
- Fixed order quantity
- Daily lot size
Correct Answer(s)

A. Replenish to maximum stock level
A. Lot-for-lot order quantity
A. Fixed order quantity

Explanation

The three lot-sizing procedures that are suitable for reorder point planning are replenish to maximum stock level, lot-for-lot order quantity, and fixed order quantity. Replenishing to the maximum stock level ensures that the inventory is always maintained at its maximum level, minimizing the risk of stockouts. Lot-for-lot order quantity involves ordering exactly the quantity needed to fulfill the demand, reducing excess inventory. Fixed order quantity involves ordering a predetermined quantity each time, which can help in achieving economies of scale. These procedures are specifically designed for reorder point planning and can effectively manage inventory levels.

- A. The material on the road is managed in the stock in transit of the receiving plant.
- B. If necessary, you can post the goods receipt to blocked stock in the receiving plant.
- C. You can optionally post the goods issue from inspection stock in the supplying plant.
- D. The material on the road is part of the valuated stock of the shipping plant.
Correct Answer(s)

A. A. The material on the road is managed in the stock in transit of the receiving plant.
A. B. If necessary, you can post the goods receipt to blocked stock in the receiving plant.

Explanation

The material on the road is managed in the stock in transit of the receiving plant.
This is correct. In SAP S/4HANA, when stock is transferred between plants using a stock transport order, the stock is managed as "stock in transit" at the receiving plant until it is received. This allows the receiving plant to track goods that have been dispatched by the supplying plant but have not yet arrived.

If necessary, you can post the goods receipt to blocked stock in the receiving plant.
This is correct. SAP S/4HANA allows the receiving plant to post goods directly to blocked stock upon receipt. This can be necessary if the goods need to be inspected or if there is some uncertainty about their quality or compliance with specifications, requiring that they be isolated from available inventory until cleared.

Correct Answer(s)

A. A. Create additional material master accounting data.
A. B. Customize valuation categories and valuation types.

Explanation

To implement split valuation functionality, two actions must be taken. First, additional material master accounting data needs to be created, which allows for the differentiation of valuation for different stock types. Second, customization of valuation categories and valuation types is required to define the criteria for splitting the valuation. These two actions together enable the system to assign different valuation types to different stock types and accurately determine the value of inventory.

You are receiving deliveries for a valuated material. Which documents are created when you post a goods receipt? There are 2 correct answers to this question.
- A. Inbound delivery
- B. Invoice document
- C. Accounting document
- D. Material document
Correct Answer(s)

Your company will procure finished goods from a supplier. The supplier will manufacture the product using components shipped from your company. Which process would you use for this scenario? Please choose the correct answer.
- A. External processing
- B. Third-party procurement
- C. Subcontracting
- D. Standard procurement
Correct Answer

A. C. Subcontracting

Explanation

In this scenario, the company will be procuring finished goods from a supplier who will manufacture the product using components shipped from the company. This process is known as subcontracting, where a company outsources a part of its manufacturing process to a third-party supplier. The supplier takes responsibility for manufacturing the product using the components provided by the company. This allows the company to focus on other aspects of its business while still ensuring the production of the required goods. Therefore, the correct answer is C. Subcontracting.

- A. Set a special MRP group for consignment in the material master record.
- B. Maintain a default storage location for external procurement in the material master record.

This allows for centralized management and reduces the effort required for maintaining prices across the organization.

Your project uses product costing and production planning functionality. Which valuation area must be used? Please choose the correct answer.
- A. Plant
- B. Controlling area
- C. Company code
- D. Business area
Correct Answer

A. A. Plant

Explanation

In SAP, when your project involves product costing and production planning functionality, the valuation area must be set at the plant level. This setup is essential because it allows for detailed and specific valuation of inventory and cost of goods manufactured within each plant. The plant level valuation enables accurate tracking and management of costs related to production activities, material valuations, and overall inventory management within each specific plant. This granularity is crucial for effective production planning and product costing.

What do you need to do if you want MRP live to create planned orders for externally procured materials? Please choose the correct answer.
- A. Change the procurement type of the material.
- B. Set the appropriate plant-specific material status.
- C. Set the MRP indicator in the source list of the material to "Not relevant for planning".
- D. Implement BAdl PPH_MRP_SOURCING_BADI => SOS_DET_ADJUST
Correct Answer

A. D. Implement BAdl PPH_MRP_SOURCING_BADI => SOS_DET_ADJUST

Explanation

To have MRP live create planned orders for externally procured materials, you need to implement the BAdl PPH_MRP_SOURCING_BADI => SOS_DET_ADJUST. This BAdl allows for adjustments to the sourcing details, which includes the creation of planned orders for externally procured materials. Changing the procurement type of the material, setting the appropriate plant-specific material status, or setting the MRP indicator in the source list of the material to "Not relevant for planning" would not directly enable MRP live to create planned orders for externally procured materials.
