You will need to maitain a lot of master data in APO, and you will need to use PPMs instead of PDSs. Apart from that, I do not see any other issue.

What you will need to take into account is:

- Forecast upload process

- Stocks upload process

- Integration with production notifications...you will need to delete produced planned orders and increase stocks for procuded elements, and decrease stocks for components...

- etc...

Regards,

Raul

Hi Samyon,

When PPDS can be designed as standalone object, the following needs to be taken care.

1) Master data accuracy required while maintaining master data objects like resource, PPDS PPMs, Bom, Routing, Location, products etc.,

2) Any master data changes to be done later on in SCM directly. [Good part is that there is more scope for simulation activities]

3) As there is no execution system, the results can be downloaded in PPDS itself and there is no data transfer of production orders from SCM to ECC anticipated. So, PPDS piles up with huge data.

4) More control and scope for PPDS planner

5) Constraint while order prioritisation if required.

6) Product shelf life will be controlled only at SCM side as there is no ERP system to provide master data.
