Enhancements for LPP Heuristic and Availability Check (New)

Use

As of SAP SCM 5.1, the following new functions are available for Long Products Planning (LPP):

Length-Based Logistics with Planning Strategy

You use this planning strategy to define which strategy you want the system to use when assigning receipts to requirements for length-based products. The planning strategy determines the assignment sequence for Long Products Planning when planning using the LPP heuristic, during the characteristic-dependent availability check (Available-to-Promise), and during component planning when creating planned orders.

So that the system can better support you in your planning scenarios, you can now choose between the two planning strategies Assign Earliest Receipts First and Assign On-Time Receipts First.

Planning According to the Requirement Sorting Rule

You can now use a Requirement Sort Rule to define the criterion according to which you want the system to sort requirements before the heuristic processes them:

• Sort Ascending According to Delivery Date

The system processes the requirements with the earliest delivery date first.

• Sort Ascending According to Time of Creation

The system processes the requirements in the sequence they arise.

Rounding Quantities to Whole Lengths

In certain cases during planning for length-based products, the system might not be able to create an exact multiple of the individual length for an open receipt or requirement quantity anymore. The system then rounds the receipt or requirement quantity up or down according to what is known as the 50% rule.

You can use the Business Add-In (BAdI) /SAPAPO/EOGL_ROUNDING to adjust the rounding logic of long products planning for open receipt quantities or requirement quantities to customer-specific needs.

Example

Production first delivered 3 x 900 meters for an order for 10 x 1,000 meters of cable. The open quantity is therefore 7,300 (3 x 900 m = 2,700 m; 10,000 m - 2,700 m = 7,300 m), although only 7 x 1,000 m can actually be expected.

Planning On-Order Stock via Reorder Point Method

The Reorder Point lot-sizing procedure now provides you with an additional length-based planning procedure. If you select the Reorder Point lot-sizing procedure with reorder point method 1 (reorder point from location product master), and the total of fixed receipts is less than the value of the reorder point, the system creates a procurement proposal in Long Products Planning.
