Background documentationReplenishment Order Alerts

 

Replenishment order alerts indicate an exception in connection with a replenishment order in replenishment order collaboration in SAP Supply Network Collaboration (SAP SNC).

To generate a replenishment order alert, the following options are available, depending on the alert type:

  • The Post Processing Framework (PPF) generates the alert. System administration can deactivate alert generation in the PPF.

  • The system administration regularly runs a report. To call the report for online processing, on the SAP Easy Access screen, choose Start of the navigation path Supply Network Collaboration Next navigation step Exceptions Next navigation step Alert Generation Next navigation step <REPORT>. End of the navigation path

  • SAP SNC generates the alert when validating the replenishment order. The system administration can deactivate the alert generation in Customizing for Validation.

  • You run a visibility process for replenishment orders and execute the overdue event report in an SAP Event Management (SAP EM) system.

  • SAP SNC generates the alert in the background.

The following table contains the alert types for replenishment order collaboration:

ID

Description

New Replenishment Order Item

7120

Validation

In the supplier back-end system, the supplier has created a new sales order or added an item to an existing sales order. The supplier has sent the new or changed sales order to SAP SNC, where the replenishment order is updated accordingly.

The RO_NEW_CHG_ALERT_CTRL validation check creates the alert upon receipt of the XML message of type ReplenishmentOrderConfirmation.

Changed Replenishment Order Item

7121

Validation

The supplier has changed a sales order item in the supplier back-end system and has sent the sales order using to SAP SNC using an XML message of type ReplenishmentOrderConfirmation. For more information about which changes are considered, see Update of RO from Changed Sales Order.

The RO_NEW_CHG_ALERT_CTRL validation check creates the alert upon receipt of the XML message of type ReplenishmentOrderConfirmation.

Exception During Validation in Replenishment Order Collaboration

7122

Validation

SAP SNC has detected missing or incorrect data in one of the following objects:

  • XML message of type ReplenishmentOrderConfirmation sent from the supplier back-end system

  • XML message of type VendorGeneratedOrderConfirmation sent from the customer back-end system

  • Replenishment order that was created in the background by a planning service in SAP SNC

Confirmation of Replenishment Order Item Was Rejected

7126

PPF or Background

The supplier has sent a sales order confirmation from the supplier back-end system to SAP SNC. SAP SNC has compared the confirmation schedule line with the request schedule line in the replenishment order using deviation analysis from consensus finding, and has detected a deviation. For this reason, SAP SNC has rejected the confirmation schedule line. If the RO_PPF_EXEC validation check is inactive, SAP SNC generates this alert in the background. If the validation check is active, the alert is generated by the PPF (application /SCA/ICH, action profile /SCA/BOL_ORDER_VGOR, action definition /SCA/BOL_VGO_APPROVALREJ_ALERT). The PPF action is active in the standard system. The PPF action creates the alert upon receipt of the ReplenishmentOrderConfirmation from the supplier back-end system.

Confirmed Item Quantity Violates Underdelivery Tolerance

7123

Validation

The supplier has sent a sales order confirmation (ReplenishmentOrderConfirmation) from the supplier back-end system to SAP SNC. SAP SNC has compared the confirmed quantity with the requested quantity using deviation analysis from consensus finding, and has determined a deviation outside of the underdelivery tolerances specified in deviation analysis.

This alert is generated by the RO_CREATE_CONF_ALERT_DA validation check, which is active in the standard delivery.

Confirmed Delivery Date/Time Violates Delay Tolerance

7140

Validation

The supplier has sent a sales order confirmation (ReplenishmentOrderConfirmation) from the supplier back-end system to SAP SNC. SAP SNC has compared the confirmed delivery date/time with the requested delivery date/time, using deviation analysis from consensus finding, and has determined a deviation outside of the delay tolerances specified in deviation analysis.

This alert is generated by the RO_CREATE_CONF_ALERT_DA validation check, which is active in the standard delivery.

Partially Confirmed Replenishment Order Item

7124

PPF or Background

The supplier has sent a sales order confirmation from the supplier back-end system to SAP SNC. The total confirmed quantity of the replenishment order item is less than the total requested quantity of the replenishment order item minus the underdelivery tolerance.

The total confirmed quantity is the sum of the confirmed quantities from the confirmed schedules lines of the Confirmed schedule line type. The total requested quantity is the sum of the request quantities from the request schedule lines. If the RO_PPF_EXEC validation check is inactive, SAP SNC generates this alert in the background. If the validation check is active, the alert is generated by the PPF (application /SCA/ICH, action profile /SCA/BOL_ORDER_VGOR, action definition /SCA/BOL_VGO_INCOMPLCONF_ALERT).

Too-Late Confirmation of Replenishment Order Item

7125

PPF or Background

The supplier has sent a sales order confirmation from the supplier back-end system to SAP SNC. The confirmation date of a least one confirmation schedule line is later than the customer's requested date. If the RO_PPF_EXEC validation check is inactive, SAP SNC generates this alert in the background. If the validation check is active, the alert is generated by the PPF (application /SCA/ICH, action profile /SCA/BOL_ORDER_VGOR, action definition /SCA/BOL_VGO_INCOMPLCONF_ALERT).

Overdue Replenishment Order Confirmation of Supplier

7127

Visibility Process

This alert type is relevant for the visibility process for replenishment orders when you want to monitor replenishment order confirmations in the Responsive Replenishment with ATP scenario. SAP SNC has sent a replenishment order to the supplier back-end system and is waiting for the confirmation from the supplier back-end system. The wait time has exceeded a predefined deadline. For more information, see Visibility Processes for SAP SNC.

Overdue Replenishment Order Confirmation of Customer

7128

Visibility Process

This alert type is relevant for the visibility process from replenishment orders when you want to monitor the purchase order number assignment in the customer back-end system. SAP SNC has sent a replenishment order to the customer back-end system and is waiting for the confirmation with the purchase order number from the customer back-end system. The wait time has exceeded a predefined deadline. For more information, see Visibility Processes for SAP SNC.

New Attachment Added to Replenishment Order

7141

Automatically

A new attachment has been added to the replenishment order, using the attachment handling functionality of SAP SNC (without Collaboration Folders).

The ID column contains the alert type ID. The Source column specifies how an alert is generated.

Note Note

If you have set the RO_PPF_EXEC validation check to inactive, so that certain alerts are generated in the background, you can deactivate the generation of each alert type individually by setting the Inactive flag for the alert in the relevant PPF action profile. End of the note.

End of the note.

The following alert types are also related to replenishment orders:

  • Alert type 7407

    During assignment of the sales order number and the purchase order number, the system generates this alert if it:

    • Did not find a number

    • Used the last number of the number range interval

    • Used a number from a critical number range

  • Alert type 7408

    This alert type is relevant if you publish replenishment orders using the /SCA/ICH_ORDER_SEND report. The report sends the replenishment order messages to outbound message processing. If outbound message processing is unable to send the message, SAP SNC generates an alert of type 7408.

    Note Note

    Note that these alert types are not based on the alert type structure for replenishment orders. Therefore, the alert monitor does not display these alerts on the Replenishment Order tab page, but instead, it displays alert type 7407 on the VMI Order Send Alerts tab page and alert type 7408 on the Order Send Alert Partner tab page.

    End of the note.
