Where to custom to drop off requirement for PO in ATP

[colin_cheong]

Currently, the ATP for sales order item include checking for Purchase order.

The same order type and item category was shared by more than 1 company.

Now, one of the company does not want to include PO into the ATP check for standard sales item.

Since many company are sharing the configuration, I thought of using custom control.

Where can i checked this setting?

Can you create a new checking group and OVZ9 settings to exclude PO? Then assign the new checking group to the material masters (sales/plant view) created for the sale org/plant that belongs to the particular company code. If this does not satisfy your requirement, then check the user exit provided in OSS 1644443 - Documentation on User Exits in Availability check.

Siew Tim,

The place where the elements are configured that are considered in the standard Availability check is OVZ9.  The combination of Availability checking Group and Checking Rule determine which elements are considered (such as Purchase orders).  Unfortunately, you have little control over Checking Rule; SAP mostly hardcodes the checking rule as A or A*; so you are left with the Availability checking Group.

One way to approach the problem is to create a new Availability checking Group.  It should probably be a copy of your existing Availability Checking Group.  OVZ2

Then, create a new combination in OVZ9.  Probably copy your existing settings from OVZ9, but with the new checking group.  Then, go in to modify the scope of check by removing "Include Purchase Orders" setting.  Save.

Now, alter the material masters in the plants belonging to the companies wishing the new scope of check, placing the new Availability checking Group into the MRP3 Tab.  Thereafter, new sales orders will use the new scope of check you have created.
