Hi,
When we create a sales order, there are several basic functions which are executed automatically for the dynamic order management . among these basic functions , availability check and transfer of requirements are crucial.
the system first prepares schedule line containing the information on the desired delivery date and quantities , this information is passed to MRP and an avialability check and transfer of requiremnts are executed
First the system carries out backward scheduling and establishes the material avaialbility date = desired delivery date-transit time-loading time-picking & packing time and on this date an availability check is carried out using ATP logic which means avialable to promise quanity =total ware house stock+incoing orders-outgoing
along with the avialability check the requirements also are transferred to MRP.
the configuration involves following
1. switching on at schedule line catagegory the avialability check and TOR
2. configure the avilability check using ATP and using the checking group and Checking rule
What is the difference between ATP check and availability check how these reflect in sales order(which check system considers) what are the IMG settings for the same.
ATP Check is checking of availablty quantities i.e ATP = Total Warehouse Stock + Planned receipts(Incoming Stock) - Planned Issues (Out going stock)
Availbilty Check is an integral part of business process it determines the if the desire deliverible quantity can be met on requested delivery date or not.Then it passes to Material Requirement Planning. Or
we can also say..
avability check is nothing but checking of availibility of stock which is placed in the order , sys carries out this check through a available to promise (ATP) logic =whare house stock +planned recepts (incoming stock)-planned issues (out going stock)
Reward points if this helps you.
