• Key Concepts: 
  Setup transition is a process in SAP SCM-APO-PPS Production Planning and Detailed Scheduling that allows users to move from one production plan to another. It is used to transition from one production plan to another without having to manually enter all the data again. Setup transition also allows users to compare the differences between two plans and make adjustments accordingly. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use setup transition, users must first create two production plans. Once both plans are created, users can then select the “Setup Transition” option from the menu. This will open a window where users can select which plan they want to transition from and which plan they want to transition to. Once both plans are selected, users can then click “OK” and the transition will begin. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using setup transition, it is important to remember that any changes made in one plan will not be reflected in the other plan until the transition is complete. Additionally, it is important to make sure that both plans have the same settings before transitioning, as any discrepancies could cause errors or unexpected results.
