How to get BOM component dependant demand whitout having BOM header in APO?

[Former Member]

Hello,

I would like to know if it is possible to get BOM component dependant demand in APO without having BOM header in APO.

If someone already did that, please thanks to share your experience.

Thanks a lot and best regards.

I dont think it is possible as per standard APO functionality. But i may be wrong.

I have a question to you . Why cant you pull the material BOM and the header demend to APO ? You can still plan the header material in R/3 without any issues. We are currently doing that and have not had any problems with that approach till date.

Thanks

Hi Niang,

There is an functionality in APO - DP module called "Forecasting with Bills of Material". You need create DP-BOM (PDS/PPM) from R/3.

Please refer the SAP help link for details.
