| check mode (SCM-APO-ATP) |
A setting that, together with the business event, defines the type and scope of the check, and controls consumption with forecasting.
The check mode should be maintained in the location-specific product master data record. If a check mode is not provided by the calling application, the system takes this one into account. If the calling system is an SAP R/3 system, the requirement class is provided as the check mode from the SD applications. No other applications provide check modes.
