Executing Simulative Checks Using Combinations of Basic Methods 

Use

You can combine basic methods and determine the execution sequence of the checks using this advanced method.

Prerequisites

You selected a valid check mode (for example, check step number of the product availability check = 1, check step number of product allocations = 2, no other basic method, or no rules-based availability check).

Procedure

  1. From the SAP APO screen choose Global ATP à Reporting à ATP Simulation.
  2. Enter the relevant check data (see, for example, Executing Simulative Product Availability Checks).
  3. Choose Program à Execute.

    4. The Characteristic Values for Product Alloc. Check (Simulation) dialog box appears.

  4. Enter the relevant characteristic values.
  5. Choose Start simulation.

You branch to the APO Availability Check: Confirmation Proposal screen.

Results

The result, which consists of check parameters, product availability date(s) and confirmed quantity(ties), is displayed in the APO Availability Check: Confirmation Proposal screen.

The result of the combined basic methods that you selected is displayed in this screen. You can call up the results of the individual basic methods by choosing Product allocations and ATP quantity. You can display more details there.

Displaying check types

By choosing Check types, you branch to the APO Availability Check: Confirmation Proposal Check Types screen. You can display the results of the individual check steps here.
