  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WXP353 - Also enter the issue figure for "Calculation of day's supply" ?

    Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message WXP353:


    SAP Message: WXP353 - Also enter the issue figure for "Calculation of day's supply"


    Cause:

    This warning message appears in SAP when you are maintaining or processing a material master record (typically in the MRP 2 view) or during planning activities, and the system expects an issue figure (also called daily consumption or daily usage) to be entered for the calculation of the day's supply.

    • The day's supply is a key parameter used in material requirements planning (MRP) to determine how many days the current stock will last based on the daily consumption.
    • If the issue figure (daily consumption) is missing or zero, SAP cannot calculate the day's supply.
    • This usually happens when the Issue for Calculation of Day's Supply indicator is set, but the corresponding issue figure is not maintained.

    Where does this happen?

    • In the Material Master under MRP 2 view:
      • Field: Issue for Calculation of Day's Supply (checkbox)
      • Field: Issue Figure (daily consumption quantity)
    • During MRP runs or consumption-based planning, if the system needs to calculate the day's supply but the issue figure is missing, this warning is triggered.

    Solution:

    1. Enter the Issue Figure:

      • Go to the material master record (transaction MM02).
      • Navigate to the MRP 2 view.
      • Check if the Issue for Calculation of Day's Supply checkbox is selected.
      • If yes, enter a valid Issue Figure (daily consumption quantity) in the corresponding field.
      • Save the material master.
    2. If you do not want to use the day's supply calculation:

      • Uncheck the Issue for Calculation of Day's Supply checkbox.
      • This will prevent the system from expecting an issue figure.
    3. Review Consumption Data:

      • If you are unsure about the daily consumption, analyze historical consumption data or use forecasted values to estimate the issue figure.
    4. Check Customizing Settings:

      • Sometimes, the system settings or user exits might enforce this check.
      • Review MRP parameters and user exits if the warning persists despite correct data.

    Additional Information:

    • Day's Supply Calculation is used in consumption-based planning to help determine reorder points and safety stock levels.
    • The Issue Figure represents the average daily consumption quantity.
    • This warning is not an error; it is a warning (message class WXP, message number 353), so the system allows you to continue but advises you to maintain the data for accurate planning.
    • Ignoring this warning may lead to inaccurate MRP results or stock shortages.

    Summary:

    Aspect Details
