With this business function, you can logically segment materials based on certain attributes, for example, Quality
and Customer segment
. You can also segment the demand elements (such as customer orders or planned independent requirements) and supply elements (such as stock or purchase orders). The system allows you to assign segmentation for a material and activate it for a specific plant. This results in the logical segmentation of demand or stock elements without the creation of separate master data. You define the mapping of requirements to stock segment in the segmentation strategy. The system considers the mapping during materials requirement planning (MRP) and the Available-to-Promise (ATP) availability check.
The following software component supports material segmentation:
SAP_APPL (617) SP4
