What is pegging horizon in SAP SCM-APO-PPS - Production Planning and Detailed Scheduling?


SAP Term: pegging horizon


Smart SAP Assistant

  • Key Concepts: 
    Pegging horizon is a feature of the Production Planning and Detailed Scheduling (PPS) component of SAP's Supply Chain Management (SCM) module. It is used to define the time period for which the system will consider pegging relationships when creating production plans. Pegging is the process of linking demand and supply elements in a supply chain, such as orders and materials, to ensure that all requirements are met. 
    
    How to use it: 
    The pegging horizon can be set in the PPS configuration settings. It is important to set the pegging horizon correctly, as it will determine how far into the future the system will consider pegging relationships when creating production plans. The pegging horizon should be set to a value that is long enough to cover all expected demand and supply elements, but not so long that it causes unnecessary delays in production planning. 
    
    Tips & Tricks: 
    It is important to note that the pegging horizon does not affect the actual production plan; it only affects how far into the future the system will consider pegging relationships when creating the plan. Additionally, it is important to keep in mind that setting a longer pegging horizon may result in longer planning times, as more data needs to be processed.
