Hi all:
We have a finished goods, say 1000 at plant A that requires a critical component 1001 that a vendor V supplies. When we run the PPDS heuristics when there is a demand for product 1000, say on 04/20/2011 then PPDS heurstiics creates a PR before 04/20/2011 for 1001 based on the qty of the FG to cover the demand with souring as Vendor V.
But when I ran the SNP heuristics for the same product, it created a PR to cover the same demand, but the PR had a Avail/ReqD date after 04/20/2011.
When I checked the result of SNP-LLC for the version, I did not see a record for vendor V. Is this the issue?
This Vendor V is not sub-contractor but an external vendor.
There is no loc-product for the Vendor V. But there is a transportation lane from Vendor V to plant A and there is the product 1001 in the TL with a means of transport.
I ran the SNP - LLC just for 1001 and it produced a record for 1001 - A and not for 1001 - V.
What is going on? I need the SNP PR to have the source vendor V.
Pl. help.
Thanks
Ryan
