Batch selection on characteristic based ATP check in GATP

632 Views

Hi All,

I have a requirement at one of my customers as they plan to implement the GATP solution at their end.

They want to have the GATP carry out the ATP based on "Freshness Level" characteristic value (freshness level as in the batch that was produced most recently would be the freshest and will have the characteristic created for FRESHNESS = Value A and so on) and then have the GATP propose / select the correct batch that corresponds to this criteria and pass this batch into the SO or Delivery (yet to be decided if at SO or delivery)

We have already configured a demo / build case for the same and the characteristic based GATP check works fine but I have the following questions on the same

1. Which FM / User exit can we use to send the Freshness characteristics from ECC to GATP when the sales order is entered (initially there would be no batch and the characteristics would be retrieved from a Z table based on certain criteria)

2. Can the GATP propose / select the correct batch at APO side after the characetristic based ATP check?

- If YES (for the above, then how can we enforce that batch into the SO / Delivery?

does the system assigns the batch from GATP as it is or we need to write a custom

code? (which user exit if yes)

- If NO, then how can we have the correct batch determined in the SO / delivery

based on the characteristic that GATP sends back to the ECC

Tried searching for this info in existing threads but no luck.

Thanks,
