• Key Concepts: 
  Regenerative planning is a type of material requirements planning (MRP) used in SAP's Production Planning (PP) module. It is a process that uses the existing production plan to generate new plans based on changes in demand, supply, and other factors. The goal of regenerative planning is to ensure that the production plan is always up-to-date and accurate.
  
  How to use it: 
  Regenerative planning can be used to create a new production plan based on changes in demand, supply, and other factors. It can also be used to adjust the existing production plan to account for changes in the market or customer needs. To use regenerative planning, users must first enter the relevant data into the system, such as demand forecasts, supply forecasts, and other relevant information. Once this data is entered, the system will generate a new production plan based on the data.
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using regenerative planning, it is important to ensure that all relevant data is entered into the system accurately and completely. This will ensure that the generated production plan is accurate and up-to-date. Additionally, it is important to regularly review and update the data in order to ensure that the generated plans are always accurate.
  
  Related Information: 
  Regenerative planning is just one type of material requirements planning (MRP) used in SAP's Production Planning (PP) module. Other types of MRP include finite capacity planning, finite loading planning, and infinite loading planning. Additionally, there are other types of production planning available in SAP such as capacity requirements planning (CRP), material requirements planning (MRP), and sales and operations planning (S&OP).
