Availability Check According to ATP Logic in Planned Order

Use

In the check according to ATP logic, the system checks whether the dependent requirements of each component in a planned order are covered by specific receipt and issue elements or by stock.

Prerequisites

Checking group

You have assigned a checking group to the materials to be checked in the material master (MRP 3 view, Availability check field).

Checking rule

You have set a checking rule for the plant in Customizing for MRP in Maintain all plant parameters. You can also assign a checking rule directly to the material using the MRP group.

The system determines the Scope of the Availability Check, that is, the receipts, issues and stocks that are to be included in the availability check depending on the combination of the checking group and the checking rule.

In Customizing for MRP under Define availability check for components ® MRP group, you have determined whether the ATP check is to per MRP group following the logic of full or partial confirmation.

Features

The availability check is dynamic and uses the ATP logic, that is, each time you carry out the check, the system recalculates the current situation. If a quantity can be confirmed for the requirement date, the system enters precisely this quantity as the confirmed quantity in the dependent requirements and the ATP quantity for the components is reduced by the confirmed quantity. Therefore, in the next availability check, dependent requirements can only be confirmed for the amount of the remaining ATP quantity.

The result of the availability check for the components is displayed in the planned order header in the fields Confirmed quantity and Order confirmation date.

Activities

To check availability according to the ATP logic, select Components ATP in the header data screen of the planned order.

The Availability Overview of the Components appears.
