Hi,

Forecast is done on the basis of main material,while planning material is assigned to main material in MRP 3 View.,strategy group is 60.

If you have to release the forecast of the main material from APO TO ECC as PIR on the basis of Planning Material.

Is there any standard functionlity or BAPI available for it.

Thanks,

Jimmy

Hi Jimmy,

While defining the planning product, you can maintain hierarchies and then create forecast/PIR under these hierarchies and then use in demand planning.

These hierarchies you can directly create in R/3 and then cif to APO or directly maintain in APO also.

You can use the following link for guideline

Hi Senthil,

We are required to create forecast on the basis of Main material,(forecast is prepared by Marketing staff) and PIR is required on the basis of Planning material as (its required by the Production people)they would like to see it on planning material basis not on the basis of hierarchies.

So is there any way out in standard sap or it has to be developed???

Thanks

maintain the product split table /sapapo/mc7b so that when you transfer from DP to SNP the key figure value for the main material is transferred to the planning material and results in FA forecast requirements for the planning material.

Hi Jimmy,

Create an activity using t-code /n/sapapo/MC8T and create a planning job using t-code /n/sapapo/MC8D and incorporate the activity inthis transaction. Release this job in background.

Please confirm.

Hi Senthil,

Thanks for the reply,through this activity, we can release for Make to order or make to stock sitution,but here in this case we are required to release the forecast on the basis of Planning material,Strategy Group 60 is assigned to MRP 3 View,even I have assigned requirement type relating to Planning with Planning material.

Then also its get transfered on the basis of main material.
