gATP product substitution procedure validity dates

[Former Member]

Hi All,

For some reason the validity dates inside the product substitution procedure are not considered during the creation of sales order.

M1       M2        01-oct-2015      20-oct-2015

When I create a sales order for 26-oct-2015, I can see the product substitution is getting kicked in for M1 and system is doing the avail check for M2 as well.

Please advice.

Thanks,

Suhail Shaik

Hello Suhail -

What is the APO release you're using ?

As of SCM 7.0 EHP3, MBDAT of the order is considered to validate the Substitution rule. Check if your MBDAT is falling in the validity.

Thanks & Best Regards,

Babu - thanks for your reply, yes I am aware of the MAD and it is same as the delivery date.

SAP provided me a note and the actual check seems to be working fine now however in the APO overview screen I still see M1 and M2 when the dates are not valid and I have posted the same back to SAP.

I will update once I get this answered.

Thanks,

Hello Suhail,

You mean substitution still gets invoked when there is no substitution rule available for the MBDAT ? Perhaps, ROC is getting incorrectly triggered and giving you the supply ? Can you post your delivery proposal screen ?

Cheers,
