STO ATP issue

[Former Member]

Hi All,

currently in my company the ATP for STO's has been turned off for 2 reasons:

1) If the stock is kept in one storage location (ABCD) and the ATP is looking at EFGH (based on master data etc), then obviously, deliveries will not be created even if stock exists in ABCD.

2) in a double STO process, the delivery documents will be created a week early (to get the export related documents in place). However, stock may or may not be available in the virtual shipping plant(in a DOUBLE STO scenario) and therefore deliveries may not be created. Today, because ATP is turned off, these virtual shipping sites can create the delivery in advance whether or not there is stock.

How ever the users in the plant are having issues with non availability of stock even though the delivery says the stock is confirmed.

Do you guys think we can turn on the ATP and still over come such issues

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

My sinceare suggestion is please go through the settings in OVZ9- you can include Stock transfer stock also.

Again if you no need to check stock storage location wise- Please Check the field " No storage location inspection"

To work ATP- field " RLT" also important

Thanks

Hello,

You seriously need to bring your company's business process into the 21st century.

Lastly, there is BADI that you can use to determine the issue storage location for the stock. Since my client does not use APO. We use either a dediciated stor. loc. for all STO's from the subsidiaries or we use a particular stor. loc. in the issuing plant that is actually used only for STO PGI to one subsidiary only.
