Material Susbsitution in ECC Sales order ATP Check

Former Member

Hello all,

I have used GATP and implemented Material susbtitutions.

Now i am looking to achieve the following in ECC:

1) During ATP check, ECC should first look for availability on the material in the sales order item

2) If enough supply is not found(ATP Check fails), then system should substitute this material with another material; this substitution should happen only if the ATP check on the customer ordered material fails;

Is ECC capable of doing this? I already tried Material determiantion and all reason codes; But material determination is directly replacing the customer ordered material with the substituted material even though there is enough stock on the sales order material.

thanks

In std, you can achieve this.

In Material Determination, while Creating Condition records in VB11,

maintain appropriate Substitution reason ( for eg:0001)

enter Customer Ordered Material in "Material Entered" field & substitute Material in " Material" field.

now Goto- Alternative materials or Press F2, Enter the another material to substitute Material if the first Substitute material doesnt have enough Stock , Tick the "MRP Indicator" & save the record.

( ref: Help doc of MRP Indicator,

MRP indicator for alternative material in product selection

Material requirements planning (MRP) indicator for automatic product selection.

Use

The MRP indicator displays the alternative material for which a subitem can be created in case a requirement can't be met. Material requirements planning uses the subitem to determine the requirement shortage.

Note:

Only one alternative material can be indicated as relevant for materials planning.)

Test & revert.
