APO Resource Hierarchy question

[Former Member]

Hello all:

I've setup a Resource Hierarchy with several levels in /sapapo/relhshow.  I've assigned my new Resource Hierarchy to the Active Model.  I've gone into  /sapapo/msdp_admin and assigned this new Resource Hierarchy Structure to my Planning Area.

When I put orders on materials, I'm only getting Capacity Requirements on the Main Resource and One Grouping Level up.  I am not getting Capacity Requirements on any other higher levels.

Here are some details:

Hierarchy:

ZUS_SNP_RESOURCE  (Level 0)

   Plant Hierarchy (Level 1)

       Group BB Hierarchy (Level 2)

           Group B Hierarchy (Level 3)

               Actual Work Center (Level 4)

The Actual Work Center is getting the correct Capacity Requirements.  Group B is getting the correct Capacity Requirements.  However, Group BB and the Plant Levels are not getting any Capacity Requirements. 

I'm using PDS which has the Actual Work Center tied to the Material.  Since I'm getting requirements on this WC/Resource and one level up, I don't think it has to do with the PDS itself.  I must be setting up the Resource Hierarchy wrong or I'm missing something else.

Any ideas?   Thanks.

Hi Andrea

Can you please check the KF configuration in the Planning area.

There is aggregation field which you require to fill appropriate to view Aggregated information in the planning books.

Hello Amol:

Thanks for the reply, however, this is a resource hierarchy, not a product-location hierarchy.  I don't know of any config required on a KF for this one.  Also, the hierarchy is already working for the first couple levels, just not the higher ones.  Any other ideas?

Thanks and best regards,

Andrea

Hello Andrea,

Have you been able to resolve this? I am facing the same problem.

Please update.

No, I was never able to figure out how to make it work with more than two levels and I gave up.  I went to SAP, the marketplace and consultants, so I figured I exhausted my options at that point.

Sorry about that.  I think SAP should find a solution because it is a valid need.

Best Regards,

Andrea

Thank you Andrea. After posting my query in this thread I found out another thread where you have mentioned the same.

Thanks for your response.
