Dear Ashwath,

As mentioned clearly that your client is not in manufacturing, so it is recommended to use Material Type HAWA (for Trading). Incase you maintain MRP view, you can maintain Procurement type as External. However, it is recommended to maintain availability check 01 or 02 in Sales: General Plant data, considering that you can smoothly process the sales Order. If Availability Check is left Blank, then the impact in Sales Order will be that some fields will reflect in incompletion procedure & we will keep wondering why is it reflecting in incompletion. Once you maintain the dates, then it will allow you to process order. Hence it is recommended to maintain Availability Check.

Hi aswanth,

With out MRP screens in Material Master you can not do Availability Check..

Even if the material is procured from external vendors, MRP values are important and in each case, relevant fields assume significance.

For example in case of external procurement, procurement type in MRP2, Total Replishment leadtime in MRP3, assume lot of importance.

In your case, please maintain these fields, and enable the Availability check based on RLT too with forward scheduling.

Pls let me know if you need further info on this.

hi,

SO if you are procuring from vendor then why you need to run ATP check ?

Any way it will be third party scenario.

And without MRP data you can not run ATP.
