rules-based ATP and route on sub item level

[Former Member]

Hi GATP experts!

Can the sub items have different routes than the main item?

In our R/3 sales order the route depends on the plant/shipping point.

The rules based ATP finds another plant but it seems that the route is copied from the main item to the sub item.

Is this really the standard behaviour?

Or ist there a setting possible that another route is considered for the sub item.

Thanks a lot for help,.

Hi,

The scheduling is done in SCM, and from there, whenever the RBA is triggered, the calculation is done always with the old route in SCM. Until you get back to R/3 this is when your route is determined. But the ATP check is always with the original route. So the idea would be that you change the values of the route while still in APO, this is possible via the user exit. Should be done in scheduling in APO.

Hope this information is helpful.
