Carrying Out the Planning Run (PP-MRP-PR) (SAP Library - Carrying Out the Planning Run (PP-MRP-PR))

Carrying Out the Planning Run (PP-MRP-PR)

Implementation Options

You use the Planning execution (PP-MRP-PR) component for planning material requirements for all materials or assemblies whose requirements or stock situation has changed.

To do this, you start a planning run.

Features

You can execute a planning run

for a plant, several plants, an MRP area, several MRP areas or a combination of these (total planning)
for a single material or product group (single-item planning).

The following functions are provided:

Total planning
Single-item, single-level planning
Multi-level single-item planning
Interactive planning
Multi-level, make-to-order production
Individual project planning

You can find information on individual project planning in the SAP documentation for the Project System.

In consumption-based planning, total planning and single-item planning are only executed on a single level.
Interactive planning is not useful in long-term planning and is therefore not supported by this function.

Using certain control parameters, you can determine how the planning run is to be executed.
