Set the Agreed Cumulative Quantity 

Use

You can schedule the reconciliation of cumulative quantities using the report Set/Reset Agreed Cumulative Quantity and Reconciliation Date (transaction ME88).

You can use this function to determine what the agreed cumulative quantity is on the reconciliation date that you specify.

You can also delete the agreed cumulative quantity determined by the system and the reconciliation date for all selected items.

In addition, you can carry out mass maintenance of the control parameters in the scheduling agreement items.

Features

In the function Set/Reset Agreed Cumulative Quantity and Reconciliation Date (transaction ME88) you have the following options:

·        Set or Determine the Agreed Cumulative Quantity for the Specified Reconciliation Date

The system determines the agreed cumulative quantity for all selected scheduling agreement items for the reconciliation date that you have specified on the selection screen.

In addition, you can specify that the agreed cumulative quantity should only be determined if the cumulative quantity of the item has changed so that, for example, you can prevent the system from carrying out the reconciliation for discontinued materials.

Technically, the system checks the table EKPO to see whether the old cumulative quantity is identical to the new one. In this context, identical means that neither inbound deliveries nor goods receipts have taken place for the item, depending on the control type defined.

If the cumulative quantity has changed, the system transfers the scheduling agreement data to SAP APO.

·        Reset or Delete the Agreed Cumulative Quantity and the Reconciliation Date

The system deletes the agreed cumulative quantity and the reconciliation date in all selected scheduling agreement items.

·        Mass Maintenance of the Control Parameters

The system fills or changes the Control Type and the indicator for excluding cumulative quantities from transfer in the release (No CQ Transmission) in the additional data of all selected scheduling agreement items.
