ATP results not transferred to R/3

[Former Member]

Hi,

Currently we are facing an issue with the sales orders when Back order processing is triggered from APO system. We have the concept of main item, sub item and sub item is the one relevant for delivery. When back order processing is triggered from APO, standard program initially sets the sub item for deletion, then does a availability check and create the sub item back in the sales order. In some cases, it is not creating the sub items back so we are losing the delivery relevant item from the sales orders. We believe it happens when desired delivery date is not met but couldn't confirm.

Availability check rule is set to 'C' in R/3.

Kindly advise on this.

Regards,

Hello Parthiban,

If you're using RBA, the rule should always be re-evaluated and hence a new sub item would always be generated after deleting the old sub item if there is any change in the confirmation situation. The reason as mentioned above is due to the fact the "Rule Evaluation" is ticked on which I guess is necessary as it seems that you are using delivery proposal option (C) for the confirmation results. If the sub item is completely getting deleted, it could be due to the fact that the stock is no more available and hence it lost its earlier confirmation which was available in sub item. If you do not want to lose the confirmation in the sub item, remove the Rule Evaluation which would trigger the ATP check for the unfulfilled demand in the remaining requirements.

Actually this is standard behaviour if you make use of RBA.

In the BOP variant, check if the 'execute rules based' is set in the parameters tab. If this is set, then the

syste will always delete the subitem and re-generate it.

Another option is, in the 'parameters check' tab, make use of the 'check of confirmation' option.

With this the system will only recheck if the current confirmed subitem can be kept.

Hi,

You have to uncheck the "cancel confirmation" in the BOP filter.

This will retain your earlier confirmation.
