Forecast Withdrawal not effected on PGI

[former_member1230066]

Hi All,

There are some products which were earlier on strategy 20(APO) and changed to strategy 10(APO). The Forecast Withdrawal for such products is missing when PGI is effected in ECC.

The stock in product view is reduced but the withdrawal qty is not displayed in forecast tab and neither the forecast qty is reduced to the extent of the PGI qty.

I understand that the behavior of PGI on Forecast Withdrawal should remain same irrespective of the strategy used but am not sure if a change in strategy can change the relationship of PGI and forecast withdrawal. Is there need for any change in ECC Customizing for sales order or delivery.

Would appreciate if you could give your comments.

Hi Prashant,

Check the SAP note 589180 which matches your requirement and scenario.

Also check sap notes 593509 & 537587

I agree with your comment that forecast reduction should be the same between strategy 10 and 20. the PGI should reduce the forecast in either case.

If this is not happening check to see if you have the "req. reduction" integretion model checked in the sales order integration model.

Also check for oss notes applicable for your version and sp. Forecast consumption has several notes associated with it.

Hi Prashant,

Forecast consumption does not happen with Strategy 10, Please refer the note from SAP Help

"10 Make-to-stock production

Choose this strategy if sales orders do not influence production; for example, in a mass production environment where individual orders do not affect the amount produced. There is no consumption of the forecast by incoming sales orders."

Hence Fcst. consumption does not happen in case of Strategy 10.

Thanks,
