allocation rule (IS-R) (SAP Library

allocation rule (IS-R)

Ratios defined for the allocation of materials to plants.

Allocation rules can be used to create allocation tables in which the plants involved in allocation and the allocated quantities are specified.

Allocation rules can be used:

For multiple use when creating allocation tables
To divide plants into categories (for example, top/flop analysis)
To define ratios based on the Retail Information System (for example, previous month's sales)

To specify trend factors for use in allocation strategies
