Restricting locations to create purchase requisitions in SNP CTM run

[Former Member]

Hi,

For a plant and multiple MRP areas in ECC, I have CIFed the plant and MRP areas to APO to generate multiple locations. All the products are externally procured items. There is one demand location (L1) and about 5 supply locations in the network. During the CTM run, the stock is required to be checked and transferred to the demand location. But, for any unmet demand, the purchase requisitions is required to be created only at one location (say L5). Current system behaviour is that, it is creating the purchase requisition at any location (L2, L3, L4) in the network through random selection, or, if i put the priority, it creates at the highest priority level. In my case, the requisition is required for the location which is on least priority for stock transfer. We are alright to ignore the priority, but, the question is, how can we restrict locations so that, they will create stock transfer reservations and move the available stock to demand location, but, should never create a purchase requisition.

Thanks,

Amit

Hi

After Reading your description of data.You want to move only stock from Source locations to Destination Location.

you want to move all stock which are lying at Source locations.

In Supply Selection only consider the Stock categories in CTM Profile.(CC)

So that PRs will not be created without stocks and only demand with stocks are met

I think this will resolve your problem

Thanks
