What is display filter in SAP PP-MRP - Material Requirements Planning?

SAP Term: display filter

• Component: PP-MRP

• Component Name: Material Requirements Planning

• Description: A filter consisting of time information, MRP elements, and MRP segments. The filter controls the display of the MRP list and the stock and requirements list. The system displays MRP elements only in the time period defined in the display filter. Within this period, the system displays only the segments selected in the display filter. Within the segments, the system displays only the MRP elements that are selected in the display filter and that correspond to additional selections, for example, customer, vendor, or storage location. This reduces the data in the list to a clear selection. In contrast to a selection rule, the calculation of the quantity available and the ranges of coverage is not affected by display filters.
