Short text

Lot Size Settings for Procurement Planning Heuristics (extended)

Use

Until now, procurement planning heuristics from production planning (standard heuristics SAP_PP_...) generally used the data from the location product master in the procurement quantity calculation. (Exception: In the heuristic SAP_PP_004 for planning standard lots in 3 horizons, you could also define a lot-sizing procedure in the heuristic settings for each horizon.)

As of SAP APO 4.0, heuristics can use either the data from the location product master or the data from the heuristic settings in the procurement quantity calculation. As you can still change the lot size settings in interactive planning when you call a heuristic, the new option is above all relevant for executing a heuristic in the production planning run.

If you want the heuristic to use the data from the heuristic settings, you set the Use Lot Size Settings from Heuristic indicator on the new tab page Lot Sizes. In the standard system, the indicator is not set. The tab page contains parameters for the procurement quantity calculation that are relevant for the heuristic. However, the heuristic still determines parameters that are particularly product-specific from the location product master. These include the remaining lot-for-lot order quantity and the parameters for planning safety stock.
