Planned Delivery Time in SNP Heuristic

[Former Member]

Folks

Need help in mapping the following requirement. We are implementing SNP heuristic, the requirement here is..

1) When Heuristic plans a product, it should ignore the lead time when ever the demand is with in the lead time and should create supply in the past and respect the lead time out side of the lead time.

E.g:

Today - 25th June

Procurement Lead time - 10 Days.

Available stock = 0

Planned receipts = 0

Demand on 28th June = 100

We want heuristic to create receipts for the demand with opening date in the past & delivery date to be 28th June.

Kindly help if you think we can make SNP heuristic meet the above requirement.

Hi,

I am new to APO.

This kind of situation can be handled in R3 by allowing the Orders to be created in the Past by setting

the ' Start date in Past allowed indicator ' while defining the Plant Parameters for the Plant in MRP and while mainaining the MRP Group also.

Thanks,

Hi

I don't think SNP Heuristic can do this. It will create receipt only with 5 July as receipt date.

You can manually create the receipt on desired date.
