Delete past forecast in R3

[Former Member]

We have a business where we create the forecast in APO-DP and release the forecast to R3. We do not use SNP or PPDS. MRP is run in R3. Now the issue is, past unused forecast in R3 is creating problems. The business wanted a process to clean out all forecast that lies in the past (older than one week). Pl advice how any of you would proceed.

Thanks

Hi Narayan,

as far i understand your issue, you want to delete the old forecast from R3 and not from APO ?

The t-code mentioned above "/n/sapapo/rlcdel" is used to delete forecast from APO. .

To delete forecast from R3, you may try the following steps:

1) Go to T-code MD74 in R3

- Enter the Plant/s for which you need to delete the forecast.

- Enter Material or Material range.

- Requirements type ( It specifies the planning strategies that you want to delete say like FA,FC or VSF)

- Enter Version-Plan Number (these fields are not mandatory and can be left Blank, if reqd)

- Enter th Key Date (The date before which you need to delete the forecast)

- Click on Record History, and Create list option.

- Now Execute the Program in B/ground.(Do not click on Test Mode, if you want to execute the Program in B/ground)

Note : Please try to execute the program first in Development System and if the results are fine, then only you should try it in Production.

This will surely work. Please let me know your comments and inputs on the same.

Regards,

Prasad.
