CIF - Dependent Requirements for Product Planned Externally

[marc_laberge]

Hi Experts,

I have flagged a product in APO to be planned externally [Procurement type: P - external procurement planning].

I see it has Planned Externally in the Planned Orders where it is used as a component.

My problem is that que Requirements are not transfered to R/3 so the product can be planned by MRP.

What are the necessayr settings to maintain (excluding the technical CIF settings to connect R/3 to APO).

Thanks,

Marc

Change the procurement type to E or X, only then you will be able to transfer the data from APO to ECC

Thanks

Hi Kumar,

So basically, you are saying that I can only transfer planned orders through the CIF and that I was wrong in assuming that I could transfer Dependent Requirements directly ?

Thanks,

Marc
