Inbound Quota- Means of Transport - CTM

[former_member906762]

Hello Guru's,

1) Currently we have Plant 'X' and DC 'Y' and we have a Tlane between the two with 'Truck' with 20 day transportation time and 'Air' 8 day transportation time means of transports. The validity is from 06/05/2012 to 06/05/9999 for both the means of transport . The product is 'P'

2) We have a inbound quota for Y with partner location as X and have created 2 inbound header for P the first one P1 valid from 08/05/2015 to 10/05/2015 and the second one P2 from 10/05/2015 to 06/05/2016

NOW we have a forecast on Y for 08/22/2015 and stock on X

• CTM is generating Purreq on Y for 10/05/2015 using transportation duration of 8 days.

My expectation was CTM would generate a Preqrel at X for 08/05/2015 and Purreq at Y for 08/25/2015 which it is not doing. Why is it generating the purreq so late.

Please find below the screenshots

CTM Explanation:

Expected Result : If the STR was generated starting 08/06/2015 it could have been at destination by 08/26/2015 which would be 20 days and would have earlier than the current STR arrival .

Hi Nick,

Check below points:

• Have you maintained any PDT or GR processing time in product master?
• What is the strategy used in CTM profile? Is it "use standard procedure for scheduling", if not try with the same? This is maintained on strategies tab under special strategies, field late demand fulfillment.
• In CTM profile cross check you have not excluded supply category CC if order selection done on planning scope tab for supply selection.
• What is the scheduling direction in CTM profile (maintain backward and try if forward maintained).
• Just for my understanding which "type of planning" you have selected on settings tab under basic settings?

Also check SAP note 1711914, point 3.
