Hello,
We are in make-to-order scenario, wherein the Sales Order has "BOM items" as line items. But we have make-to-stock scenario for component items. So when we create a Sales order with a BOM item in SAP R/3, dependent demand is created in SAP APO for the BOM item. Currently the requirement strategy we use in APO is planning with final assembly (20).
Suppose I release 100 forecast quantity from DP to SNP in the current time bucket (07/30/2007), and I create a Sales Order in R/3 for quantity of 10 for the BOM item on monday (07/30/2007), dependent demand 10 is created in the current time bucket in SNP. The situation looks like this in SNP before Sales order is created for a quantity of 10:
Scenario 1:
07/30/2007:
Forecast : 100
Depend Demand: 0
Total Demand: 100
After Sales order for a quantity of 10 created:
Scenario 2:
07/30/2007:
Forecast : 90
Depend Demand: 10
Total Demand: 100
Now when I process my sales order completely in the system and post good issue in R3, the situation should look like:
Scenario 3:
07/30/2007:
Forecast : 90
Depend Demand: 0
Total Demand: 90
But the Situation is still looks like:
Scenario 4:
07/30/2007:
Forecast : 100
Depend Demand: 0
Total Demand: 100
Can someone please let me know, why I am not getting scenario 3?
Thanks in advance,
Venkat.
