Hi Ram,

Planning file extry will be created or executed by system to

the objects (location products) which undergo planning run.

ie Whenever a location product undergoes demand or supply

relevant changes, during planning run for system to plan, a

planning file entry will be marked by system which will be

used as basis for planning.

This will be used in cases where network heuristics kind of

runs will be executed

Hi Both,

Thanks for your reply.

Do let me know where can I view this Planning File Entry and do I need to maintain any setting for generating this file?

If I want to use this file for my Heuristic Run how and where can I say system to consider the file.

Thanks for your precious time.

You can view PFE under menu path:

APO>Production Planning>Reporting-->/SAPAPO/RRP_NETCH - Display Planning File Entries

You need not maintain setting for generating this file

If you need to consider PFE during planning, in the background job /sapapo/snp01 under Scope of planning ,u201DNet change planning u201C should be flagged

Planning File Entry basically the difference between the previous data & current data,

It means if any new changes happen in terms of planning data then the respective planning file entry got generated.

While doing the PP you can take the run only for the planning file entry means only for the changed data.
