If you have changed the validity period of an already existing quota arrangement, for example, you should subsequently revise the quota arrangement.

When you do this, the quota-allocated quantities of the individual sources of supply are adjusted accordingly. This means that the total quantity from all purchasing documents and planned orders assigned to a source of supply is updated in the quota-allocated quantity of the quota arrangement items. (The document types to be included in the calculation of the total quantity are determined via the Quota arrangement usage field in the material master record.)

The revision of quota arrangements is carried out in the background because revising them online can slow down system response times.
