Consignment stock vs Unrestricted Stock in SAP APO

[AA3]

DC ( has vendor co location)   ------->     Tier 2 location ( garage)

can consignment stock (ECC) be considered for replenishment at Tier 2 location in SNP APO by Heuristics / optimizer?

to account for replenishment at Garages from the DC locations , can the consignment stock at DC be used ?

does Heuristics / optimizer consider it to propose transfer orders ?

Hi Ashfaq,

You can plan these stocks in APO by integrating it using CIF.

You can activate the transfer of vendor consignment stocks in the integration model by using the Storage Location Stocks indicator in the CIF integration model.

Make sure that the vendor master data must be contained in the same integration model as the stocks.

Cheers

will it get accounted to stock ATP category on APO side after CIF.

Yes this will be Cifed to APO as category CD : 'Valuated, unrestr.-use consignment stock' and will be visible for planning in APO.
