When the “Lot Size To” is set in the TLANE, SNP heuristic does not generate the purchase requisition to cover the demand the demand is
bigger than the “Lot Size To” quantity. For example, I set the “Lot Size To” as 5,000 EA in the TLANE. I also entered a forecast of 5,500 EA in the
planning book. When I execute the location heuristic, no PREQ was generated.
If I change the forecast to any number smaller than 5,000 EA, and run the same
heuristic, the PREQ would be generated correctly.
Hi Cliff,
Since your t.lane is restricted by the lot sizes from 0 to 5000 (assuming the lower limit as 0), it will be a valid source of supply up to a order size of 5000 EA. If the order size exceeds this limit, then the system looks for another valid source of supply (for instance, another t.lane with lot size limits as 5001 < order size < X, where X > 5001).
Pl check your business criteria on lot sizes and define additional t.lanes or update the existing t.lane to remove lot size restrictions.
Thanks,
Rajesh

Hi Cliff,
you should take a look at the Planning Book Macros, make sure all the ones that are related to stock projection and safety stock projection (Safety Stk/Reorder Point/Targt Stock Lvl) are activated and looking good.
In the Data view, what is the value for the Key Figure Target Stock Level? That is the level the SNP Heuristic is planning to.
