Quantities of Sales orders for deployment

Hi,

We have a scenario in deployment as follows.

A material is manufactured in plant 1 and dispatched to a distribution center plant 2 from where it is sold.  However the material is also sold from the manufacturing plant 1. 

When the order is received, a gATP check is performed and the order gets confirmed if stock is available.  For example the sale order is for 50 EA and stock available is 70 EA.  So we want the available quantity to be reduced by the quantity of confirmed sale order.  We have modified the category group of ATI and added sales order confirmed qty as qty issued.  So in the above scenario we see ATD receipts as 70 EA and ATD issues as 50 EA.  This leaves 20 EA available for deployment.  There is another sale order of 50 EA that is unconfirmed. 

This is fine.  But when we run deployment (with consideration of sales order demand at source location*), it is trying to deploy with fair share rule A against full demand of 50+50 EA at source location and the demand from distribution center. 

Since we have already reduced the available quantity by 50 EA, we want the source location demand also to be reduced.  The remaining quantity of 20 EA should be deployed against unconfirmed sale order of 50 EA and distribution demand from distribution center.

Is there a way to reduce the sale order demand quantities at source location?

*we run deployment in planning book 9ADRP_FSS.

Thanks in advance.

I have read that documentation.  There is no answer to our problem in that.

You will need to subtract the confirmed sales order qty from ATD qty to do fair share against Stock Transfer Demand and its unconfirmed sales order demand.  But not sure how you can tell system to do fair share against unconfirmed sales orders vs total sales order qty.
