Hi All,
Is it possible to create multiple Planning Books in same Planning Area?
If yes, how?
Please reply.
Hi there,
Yes, it is possible to create more than one PB and multiple DATA Views. Just bear in mind that the data views are restricted to the key figures that you have allocated to the planning book. You can also restrict user access down to the data view level for authorisations. We currently use different planning books and data views for the same planning areas with different periodicies. eg Monthly data views and Weekly data views.

Hi
It is a one to many Relation ship.
One planning area can have multiple planning book in the same way one planning book have multiple data views.
Planning area is like a super set and Planning book is a subset . The end users who work on the system work only on the planning book and they are not aware of the planning area.
In the planning book we can select the characteristics and Key Figures for the demand planners individual tasks.

Hi Ashish,
Planning Book: Planning Book is a content and layout for designing a Interactive Demand planning(IDP).
we need to design the PB's for different demand planners/group of planners.
we have the option for creation of macros for execution in planning books.
A planning book is based on a Planning Area.there is no limitation for the planning books we can create number of PB's for one PA(Planning Area)
For creating PB Tcode is : /SAPAPO/SDP8B
select the radio button for creating PB
Provide PB name and description.and the we need to provide our PA, So at this time what ever the Char and Kefg are available in PA all are existed in PB also
then you can assign what ever you want the Kefg and Char assign to PA to PB.
And the select check boxes related to UVM.MLR composite and Promotion.
we need to select this check boxes what ever you want.
Repeat the same procedure for all the Power users Individually.
and also create DV's for each PB
And better to find this bellow link very useful.

Hello Ashish,
It is possible to create multiple Planning Books in a single Planning Area.
To do so, in SCM5, the path is as follows:
SAP Menu\Advanced Planning and Optimizing\Demand Planning\Environment\Current Settings\Define Planning Book
When you enter the name of the new Planning book and click on Create, you will have to enter the name of the Planning Area in the window that follows.
In this way, even if you create multiple Planning books you can always associate it with a particular Planning Area.
Regards,
Vikram
