PP/DS Optimization (Enhanced)

Use

As of SAP SCM 5.0, the optimization has been enhanced with the following new functions:

• Order Prioritization

Previously, the system handled all order types in the same way. As of SAP SCM 5.0, you can use the Prioritization of Orders indicator on the Order Processing tab page in the optimization profile, and ATP categories to define which orders are to be given preference by optimization when scheduling. For example, you can define that production orders are to be given preference over planned orders during scheduling, and that the production orders are grouped according to priority:

Example

You have defined that production orders should be given preference over other order types in optimization when scheduling, by selecting the relevant ATP category. Additionally, you have specified the value 2 as the order priority.

Optimization Results:

The system first groups the existing orders together according to the selected ATP category. Both partial quantities are then divided according to their order priority. The system creates four order groups:

• Production orders with order priority 1 or 2 are contained in group 1, and are categorized as the most important.

• Production orders with an order priority higher than or equal to 3 are contained in group 2 and are categorized as important.

• All other order types with order priority 1 or 2 are located in group 3, and are categorized as less important.

• All other order types with an order priority higher than or the same as 3 are located in group 4, and are categorized as unimportant.

• Consider Planned Delivery Times

You can use the Consider Planned Delivery Times indicator in the optimization profile to define that the system considers the in-house production and planned delivery times for the relevant components when optimizing all components that were produced in-house or procured externally, and for which the system has not yet created sufficient receipt elements. This prevents higher-level orders from being scheduled too early for missing components.

Additionally, the method SET_AFTER_DATA_DOWNLOADS in BAdI /SAPAPO/CDPS was enhanced with the tables ET_PEGID_AVAILDATE and ET_BANF_SCHED_TIME. You can use these tables to change the planned delivery times and in-house production times for the missing components and influence the optimization results.

• Compact Scheduling

Compact scheduling allows you to reduce order lead times. The lead time of an order is an important indicator for evaluating the quality of production plans that were generated automatically. You can use this function to reduce order lead times and generate an improved production plan. Shorter lead times also reduce storage costs and wait times.

However, you can only implement compact scheduling successfully if the orders to be optimized are not assigned any fixed activities. If the order are assigned fixed activities, you must use a different optimization function, such as order prioritization. To use compact scheduling, you must set the Compact Scheduling indicator on the Basic Settings tab page in the optimization profile.
