Procedure documentationCreating Planned Independent Requirements for Materials with Segmentation Locate this document in the navigation structure

Prerequisites

  • You have created characteristics for segmentation using transaction CT04

  • You have defined segmentation structures in Customizing for Define Segmentation Structures under   Logistics – General   Segmentation  

  • You have defined segmentation strategies in Customizing for Define Segmentation Strategies under   Logistics – General   Segmentation  

  • You have created materials and assigned a segmentation strategy in the material master (transaction MM01)

  • You have selected Plnng with assembly (101) in the Planned Independent Requirements: Internal Number Assignm view to maintain the number range for the requirement plan ID

    You can access this view using transaction OMPP or in Customizing for Define Internal Number Assignment per Reqmts Class under   Production   Production Planning   Demand Management   Planned Independent Requirements   Default Values and Presettings  .

Procedure

To create planned independent requirements for materials with segmentation, proceed as follows:

  1. Go to transaction MD61.

  2. Enter the material with segmentation, Product group, or Ext Req Plan ID in the screen for creating planned independent requirements.

  3. Enter the plant and choose Enter.

  4. In the Items tab, enter the material and requirement segment.

  5. In the Table tab, enter the requirement on a monthly basis for the material at the requirement segment level.

  6. In the Sched. Lines tab, the system displays the external requirement plan ID and the requirement segment.

Result

A new requirements plan number (PBDNR) is generated internally for the unique combination of material, plant, requirement type, version number, external requirement plan ID, and requirement segment.

You can use the external requirements plan ID to select the planned independent requirements for materials with segmentation.
