Hi Sanjay,

Planning calendar is used in Period lot sixing procedures. APO standard time stream is used as a planning calendar.

However, please note that planning calendar field value in Location product master- Lot size Procedure Tab is NOT taken into account in Supply Network Planning (SNP).

Hi

You can define the planning calendar to define the periodicity of lot size.

For example in our case we want to SNP to create requirement only in alternate month based on lot size.

So we create planning calendar which consist only alternate month and attach to lot size.

Now when we execute the SNP planning, it will create supply element only in alternate month.

I hope this will give insight of it. Please let us know , if it helps you.

Thanks
