This indicator determines whether local (plant specific) assortments
are taken into account during listing in the mass listing processes
(WSM4, WSM8, MM42). The suggested value for this indicator is the value
set in Customizing.
When local assortments are taken into account by the mass listing
functions, it can sometimes have negative consequences for the listing
process. This is because a material in a plant is listed in both the
local assortment of the plant and in other assortments to which the
plant is assigned.
