Response and Supply in SAPIBP1

591 Views

Hi Experts

I am currently looking at creating a system which includes both time series and order based planning functionality, this includes S&OP, Inventory and response supply. From research and SAP documentation I have seen that response and supply had to be created within a separate planning area but as of 1802, once can now utilize supply and response within the SAPIBP1 planning area to leverage both time series and order based planning within one planning area. However I am a bit confused, Would one need to configure the SAP74 planning area and then merge with the SAPIBP1 planning area or if the all the relevant data is set up within SAPIBP1 to supports the running of the supply optimizer, one can use the time series data to run response and supply. When looking at the SAP7 specific master data there seems to be many overlaps with regards to what is already set up in SAPIBP1. Is there any documentation that can guide me with regards to the steps required to set up response and supply within the SAPIBP1 planning area.

Regards
