The difference between strategies 50 and 52 is in how the sales order itself is planned. In strategy 50, the sales order is planned in a separate make-to-order segment - in this case, stock at the plant is not considered during the planning. In strategy 52, however, the sales order is planned in the net requirements (plant)

segment - in this case, stock at the plant is considered in the planning.

For further information, please refer to the following chapters of the SAP R/3 documentation:

>Strategies for Make-to-Stock Production

>Planning w/o Final Assembly and w/o MTO (52)

>Strategies for Make-to-Order (MTO) Production

>Planning w/o Final Assembly (50)

This information should help, if not please let me know.
