• Key Concepts: 
  A violated constraint is a situation in which the system cannot satisfy the requirements of a material or resource due to a lack of availability. This can occur when the system is unable to meet the demand for a material or resource, or when the system is unable to fulfill the requirements of a material or resource due to a lack of capacity. In SAP PP-PMR Predictive MRP, violated constraints are identified and reported in order to help users take corrective action. 
  
  How to use it: 
  In SAP PP-PMR Predictive MRP, violated constraints are identified and reported in order to help users take corrective action. The system will identify any violated constraints and provide information about the material or resource that is causing the constraint. This information can then be used to adjust production plans or procurement strategies in order to ensure that all requirements are met. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  It is important to monitor violated constraints on a regular basis in order to ensure that production plans and procurement strategies are adjusted accordingly. Additionally, it is important to consider any potential future changes in demand or capacity when making adjustments in order to avoid future violations.
