planning run type - Details


  • Key Concepts: Planning run type is a feature in SAP's Material Requirements Planning (MRP) component that allows users to define the scope and parameters of a planning run. It is used to determine the material requirements for a given period of time. The planning run type defines the type of planning run, such as forecast-based, demand-based, or safety stock-based. It also defines the time horizon for the planning run, such as short-term or long-term.
    How to use it: To use the planning run type feature, users must first define the scope and parameters of the planning run. This includes selecting the type of planning run (forecast-based, demand-based, or safety stock-based) and the time horizon (short-term or long-term). Once these parameters are set, users can then execute the planning run to determine the material requirements for a given period of time.
    Tips & Tricks: When setting up a planning run type, it is important to consider the scope and parameters of the planning run carefully. For example, if you are running a forecast-based planning run, you should ensure that your forecast data is accurate and up-to-date. Additionally, it is important to consider the time horizon when setting up a planning run type; if you are running a short-term planning run, you should ensure that your data covers only the short-term period.
