Rami,

First, assure yourself that enough stars are in alignment to support a purchase req. Add an order against your distribution plant and against your production plant (/SAPAPO/RRP5). You should get no errors for either of these manually created orders. Also ensure that your demand elements actually exist in PP/DS - /SAPAPO/RRP3.

I don't have a copy of IDES handy, so I don't really know anything about planning procedure "IDES - Automatic Planning Immediately". I have always run an SNP heuristic after releasing a demand plan, so I can't speak from experience if you should expect the PP supply elements to be created automatically upon release. I do know that it is possible to have consumption or reduction trigger immediate planning. Perhaps one of the other experts can comment about what can be possible during 'release'.

For any immediate planning to work, a heuristic must be assigned. If there is no product heuristic assigned in the product master (/SAPAPO/MAT1 PP/DS tab) then the system will use the heuristic assigned to the planning procedure in configuration IMG > APO > Supply Chain Planning > PPDS > Maintain Planning Procedure. Make sure this is in place.
