If you run the complete PP-PI scenario, you first perform material requirements planning, which triggers procurement or in-house production. You then produce the bulk product (paint) as a semi-finished product. If you would like to shorten the complete scenario, you must check the stocks and post any missing material components. You thereby limit the production process to the filling of the paint and the production of the finished product.

To run the process Separate Filling of Bulk Materials, you need a certain stock of raw materials and semi-finished products. The level of the stock depends on the required production quantity. In this process, we assume a production quantity of 10,000 kg CH_5102 (primer coat black). The quantities change proportionately to changes in the production quantity.

You should only run this process if you have only run the Manual Planning and Consumption of Requirements process before but none of the other processes.
