order type

[Former Member]

Hi,

What is order type in APO? is it the Planned order, production order etc.? Is there a table where I can find the order types with descriptions?

The tables /SAPAPO/ORDKEY has ORDTYP but it is all numbers. is there a place where I can get the descriptions?

In SPRO> Advanced Planning and Optimization> Global ATP > Maintain Category

there is a column beside the category with the name "Sort". Is that same as order type?

Thanks.

You use the order type to define the type of order that Supply Network Planning (SNP) creates for this key figure in liveCache (such as stock transfers or planned orders, and so on

Please check the table: /SAPAPO/SDP08 and In the Category field, you can specify the order type that SNP creates for this key figure in greater detail
