  Reuse mode is a feature of the Production Planning and Detailed Scheduling (PPS) component of SAP's Supply Chain Management (SCM) application. It allows users to quickly and easily create new production plans based on existing plans. This helps to reduce the time and effort required to create new plans, as well as ensuring that all plans are consistent with each other.

The changes made to the template plan will be applied to all new plans created using it.
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating a template plan, it is important to ensure that all relevant information is included. This will help to ensure that all new plans created using the template are consistent with each other. Additionally, it is important to regularly review and update the template plan in order to keep it up-to-date with any changes in production requirements or processes.
