Multilevel Available To Promise

(MLATP) with Rules-Based

Component Substitution

Applies to:

SCM 5.0 / SCM 7.0. For more information, visit the Supply Chain Management homepage.

Summary

Multilevel Available To Promise (MLATP) is used in high tech industries where availability is checked at component level. This white paper explains configuration details of MLATP and Rules based substitution of components. The ATP structure is formed incase of component shortage and receipt element is created once conversion of ATP Tree structure into PPDS Planned order takes place.

Introduction

This white paper explains process of Multilevel ATP and component substitution in MLATP.MLATP is generally used in High Tech industries where final assembly is only initiated when sales order is entered. The component availability check is done in the sales order and BOM is exploded within ATP check. The sales order line item is confirmed only when components are available. The ATP check triggers creation of ATP Tree structure and receipt elements are generated when ATP Tree structure is converted into PPDS Planned order. MLATP supports following:

Scope of check in the product availability check

Check against forecast

Rules-based ATP check (product substitution and location determination at component level)

Scenario

We have a End Product (SKU) PL200. PL200 is made up of COMP4 (Component). Primary Component COMP4 can be substituted by COMP3. There is no stock for PL200. Primary Component COMP4 has stock of 500 pcs and alternate component COMP3 has 500 pcs.

Master Data

We need Material Master for SKU, Components, BOM, Routing, Work center, Production Version, Integration Models.

BOM of PL200



© 2010 SAP AG 4

A valid Production Version with Routing in ECC

SCM Data

A valid PPDS –PDS in SCM



© 2010 SAP AG 5

Configuration

Required Configuration in ECC is Strategy of component. This will be assigned to components COMP4 and COMP3



© 2010 SAP AG 6

Strategy of SKU or Header material, this will be assigned to SKU PL200

Requirement Type of SKU



© 2010 SAP AG 7

Requirement Class of Component



© 2010 SAP AG 8

Requirement class of SKU PL200

Configuration in SCM

Check Instructions in SCM for SKU

T code /SAPAPO/ATPC07

Check Instructions for Component

Configuration for Rules for Component substitution

1. Create Table 910 : two fields MATNR and RULE_MATNR

2. Create access sequence ZML1 and assign table 910 to it.

3. Create Condition type ZCM1 and assign access sequence ZML1 to it.

4. Create Rule Strategy ZMLCOM and assign condition type ZCM1 to strategy.

5. Create Rule 1MLATPNOLM Using T code /SAPAPO/RBA04 with product substitution procedure 4COMP

Product substitution procedure 4COMP has two products COMP4, COMP3 . Component COMP4 is substituted by COMP3

Assign the Rule to SKU and to primary component using T code /SAPCND/AO11

Rule for Component:

Transaction data in SCM

No Stock for SKU PL200 ( T code /SAPAPO/RRP3)

Primary Component has 500 pcs

Alternate component COMP3 also has 500 pcs



© 2010 SAP AG 14

Steps

ECC: Create sales order for SKU (PL200) of 500 pcs

Primary component COMP4 has stock of 500 pcs. BOM will be exploded in the Availability check and sales order line item will be confirmed for the SKU PL200

Confirmation for the SKU

In SCM

Using /SAPAPO/RRP_ATP2PPDS Conversion ATP Tree Structures -> Production Planning



© 2010 SAP AG 15

This can be done in background also using T code /SAPAPO/ATP2PPDS



© 2010 SAP AG 18

Scenario 2: Demand for 510 pcs of SKU PL200

Primary component COMP4 has 500 pcs available , alternate component COMP3 has 500 pcs available

Now MLATP will trigger component substitution

After saving the sales order and converting the ATP Tree structure into Planned order, there will be a dependent demand of 500 pcs for COMP4 and dependent demand of 10 pcs for COMP3



© 2010 SAP AG 20

This Planned order can be converted into Production order in SCM. The Production order is now visible in ECC.
