read batch char during ATP

[former_member566355]

Hi,

Is it possible to read batch chars during ATP check ?

Is there any user exit ?

Scenario is not CDP or VC. Its MTS scenario. Requirement is to read batch characteristics (023 is the only class defined in product for information).

Hi Y R,

the ATP check has the feature to check against batches.

see here:

You have to specifiy a batch in the sales order then the ATP checks not only for product but also for batch quantity.

If you want to check for batch characteristics, you need to specifiy the batch characteristic values in the batch slection criteria assigned to the sales order item.

Then the system checks ATP against the values you have entered for the batch selection criteria.

See documentation.

The configuration of the process is difficult.

For ATP it makes no difference if CDP or VC or MTS as long as you fill the batch selection criteria or the batch #.

Thanks Frank,

Actually in our scenario,

The batch will not be entered in the sales order, but ATP should promise the stock with specific batch chars only.

e.g. mat A - three batches are available, say x1, x2 and x3...with one of the batch char values as 'y', 'y' and 'z' for the respective batches, Commitment should be given only for those batches where the char value is 'y'.

So during ATP check, batch chars should be read and only quantities of those batches should be considered where the char value is 'y' so in the above case only stock in batches 'x1' and 'x2' should be promised.

Hope the scenario is clear now.
