RBA STO is not correlated during BOP RUN

[Former Member]

Hi all,

We are facing a problem with delivery groups correlation during BOP when one of the items of the delivery group is confirmed using an STO created by RBATP.

For example, let's make a simple case

Product A,B and C are part of the same delivery group.

10 units of both products are requested.

Product A is confirmed in full using an STO from another plant created using a Rule

Product B is confirmed partially (say 5 units)

Product C is confirmed partially (say 4 units)

In BOP filter we have added only products A and B and checked "Correlation" parameter, so product C is added and correlated to the other two. We do not want that an ATP check be done during BOP for product C, so "Check Correlation Group" is not checked.

After running BOP, products B and C are properly correlated. While product A is not correlated an is confirmed for the full quantity.

It looks like during BOP, the ATP check is done as first step (and in the case of product A an ATP tree is created) and afterwards quantities and dates are correlated, but this correlation is not capable to modify the ATP tree.

Thanks in advance for your kind cooperation

Hi Pablo,

Yes indeed quantity correlation should not work at STO level as it is not implemented in the coding. Just the date correlation should work.

Have you checked this note : 1553464 ?

Hope it helps.

Hello Michael,

Yes I have already checked this note. Please note that as long as the activity in the rule is to create an STO no subposition should be created in Sales Order, so this note does not apply to my case.

On the other hand it is very interesting and helpful this part of your answer

> Yes indeed quantity correlation should not work at STO level as it is not implemented in the coding. Just the date correlation should work.

Could you please refer me to any note or document where it is explained this situation. I have checked and rechecked notes and help and I have not find any hint a reason for this behavior.

Thanks in advance for your kind cooperation
