Hiii sri,

There are different types of planning available single item - multilevel, single item - single level basically decides how you want to plan the materials for example.

Single item planning involves planing of individual item means planning will be carried out without BOM Explosion so therefore planning for single item....can use MD03 for single item - single level planning..

For single item - Multi level planning BOM will be Exploded and the depended requirement will be consider MD02 is the T Code to Execute the Single item - Multilevel planning..

Hope this will help for your understanding...

Thanks & Regards,

Hi,

This single item planning we ill use in the requirement class and assign the req class in req type. this requirement will rule the strategy type which we will assign in MMR MRP 3 view.

Single item planning is used for

1. planning with planning material.

2. Planning at phantom assy level..ect.

after mrp for the planning material planned order will be generated that planned order is only for display purpose. it can't able to convert in to prd order untill sales order entered for header material.

This scenario is used to plan the components previously the cust order arrived.
