Product Grouping in APO PP/DS

568 Views

Hi Experts,

I am working in a scenario where i need to club the product on basis of lets say group 1- maximum throughput's and group 2 as maximum profitable products.

Option1

There is a field "Product Group Type & Product Group" in location product master Properties 2 tab, but i didn't find the use of these field (Product Group Type & Product Group) in DS board or at the time of heuristic run.

Option 2

i have maintained the planner field in location product master Admin tab,which shows planner field while executed the DS board. B'coz of planner, i can do the rescheduling/sequencing related heuristic run for selected product in DS board.

There is another option which i can see in DS board selection screen is "Set" in resource & product tab. Kindly explain how can i use this Set field for selecting a desired set of product.

The objective of grouping the products is to run heuristic & optimizer for selected set of product & will be able to analyze it easily on DS board.

Thanx in advance

Regards,

VD
