Hi Gavin,

The stock transfer horizon is used in SNP planning, it is the time period within which SNP does not create any stock transfer requisitions.

The planning time fence is used by PPDS planning. It is the time period within which the PPDS planning does not create any orders. The orders lying within this period are considered to be firmed by the PPDS planning.

Functionally, the stock transfer horizon/ production horizon in SNP are analogous to the planning time fence in PPDS, which provide the system ability to keep the plan firm/unchanged within this period.

Hope this helps!

Hi Yang,

Do you mean SNP Stock Transfer horizon and PPDS Planning Time fence in the product master under SNP2 and PPDS tabs?

If so, I strongly advise you to go through standard SAP(F1 help) documentation. Each field is defined very clearly in each of the field documentation.

Hope it helps you.

Thanks,
