Maintaining Requirements Parameters 

To simplify maintenance of the demand program, you can preset requirements parameters for the Create indep.reqmts, Change indep.reqmts and Display indep.reqmts functions, and for the evaluation of Demand Management.

Define the requirements parameters for the history in the same way for all functions.

Procedure

  1. To set the requirements parameters, on the initial screen of planned independent requirements, select Settings ® Reqmts parameters.
  2. Define the requirements parameters and choose Continue .

Result

The system displays a message indicating that the requirements parameters are saved.

The active indicator field is used to specify which planned independent requirements are used for material requirements planning.

If you want to maintain a number of versions of planned independent requirements, but do not want to include all versions in the operative planning run, you can set some versions to active and others to inactive.

You set the active indicator for each planned independent requirements item or version on the item screen.
