PPDS and GATP

[Former Member]

Hi,

I have already implemented DP and SNP. I want to implement PPDS and GATP, should I implement them sequentially or at the same time? Can you please give me advantages and disadvantages?

Thanks in advance

HI LCD

the implementation process (Phase wise or big bang) will totally depend on the business requirement.

Since you have already implemented SNP it would suggest you are not using the CTP feature of GATP for

creating receipts or covering uncovered demands at FG level. ypu might be using GATP just for availability

check and not creating receipts. In that case i think it would be subjective to the business requirement. Untill

that is understood in totality it would not to wise to comment on it. Yes in many cases where the uncovered demands

are covered by GATP like in CTP or rule based ATP also covering the shortages it is definitely required that

both GATP and PPDS go hand in hand. If you are still not sure then you can elaborate the business requirement which

might help suggesters to suggest better......

Hi LCD 777,

You can implement both at the sametime. Advantages is time saving and

reduction in efforts. There is no disadvantages as of now which we have

noticed.
