  Standard Planning Pocedure 1 (Manual with Check)

Use

You only use this standard planning procedure for components which you have already included in a planning run before the receipt of any concrete customer requirements.Procurement elements (planned order, purchase requisitions or scheduling agreement schedule lines) have already been created in the planning run.

When a sales order is received, the system creates a planned order for the finished product and checks the availability of the components. If sufficient stock is available or if a sufficient quantity is available as a result of an already existing and suitable procurement element, the planned order is created for the finished product and the dependent requirements consume the planned receipt quantity of the components.

If, however, no stock is available and the planned receipt quantity does not cover the dependent requirement, the system will not create a planned order for the finished product. In this case, you receive a note in the planning log stating that the planned order for the finished product cannot be created as the components are missing.

Then the system does not create a planned order for the finished product even if most of the component quantity is available. That is, with planning procedure 1, the system cannot take account of any partially available quantities at component level. If, for example, 10 pieces of a component K1 is required but only 8 pieces are available, the system will not create the planned order for the finished product. The sales order cannot be confirmed.

Therefore, the planner must make sure that either sufficient component stock is available or planned receipts exist to cover the components of incoming requirements.

Integration

You can use the standard planning procedure 1 for the CTP process for important components to make sure that sales orders can only be confirmed if sufficient component quantities are available.

Features

The following Actions are carried out in production planning and detailed scheduling (PP/DS) for the standard planning procedure 1 ( manual with check ):

  • If a dependent requirement/stock transfer requirement is created or changed as, for example, the system has created a planned order for the higher-level assembly or the order quantity has been increased, the requirement should be covered immediately by existing receipt elements. In this case, the system should use “suitable receipts”. See also: Reuse Mode

  • If there is a change to the production process model or to the iPPE data, PP/DS creates a planning file entry. In the next MRP run, the system reexplodes the PPM or the iPPE structures for the affected orders. The same applies if you change the goods receipt processing time in the product master.
