Hi Gurus,
I'm currently testing the replenishment of SAP retail for my client. I know for sure that we're going to have to use Time-Phased Planning to plan deliveries. I've created a planning calendar and delivery calendar for this purpose.
What I can't figure out is how I can factor in manual re-order point planning the system. I've read in some blogs that I'll just have to give a value for the Re-order Point field then the RP run will take care of the reorder point planning. I did just that and the RP run doesn't seem to recognize that my stocks are way below the reorder point and it doesn't create a PR for this.
Are there settings that I need to configure for the Time-Phased Planning to integrate with Manual Reorder Point Planning?
Below is the setup that I've created for my RP testing:
RP Type Z2 (Time-phased Planning) see attachment for RP config
Lot-size EX
Planning Calendar Z01 (Daily)
Delivery Calendar DLV (Period start is Wed & Fri)
Forecast D
Period Ind. T (Daily)
Article 72
Existing Stock - 1,800 ea
Reorder Point - 2,000 ea
I've created a forecast via MP30 for the next 12 days since there are no consumption patterns yet.
RP Run (MD03) doesn't create a procurement proposal for the reorder point.
Please help.
