Rule Based ATP with Exclusive Rule Strategy


Scenario:

Rule Based ATP is setup to carry out product and location substitutions. At one point of time, business does

not want to promise materials from one of the locations involved in the RBA substitution.

In some situation, business wants to replace the discontinued location with some other location temporarily.

Using an exclusive rule strategy, we can exclude the particular location from the RBA and also we can make

the system to select alternative location for the excluded location.

Scenario set-up:

First we will set up the Rule Based ATP scenario with 3 locations DC3000, PL0001 and PL0006. Then we willtest how the exclusive Rule strategy works for excluding the location DC3000.

Materials used:

DEMO_1

DEMO_2

DEMO_3

Locations:

DC3000

PL0001

PL0006

Product List:

Maintain the Rule with Product substitution and Location determination procedure





2





3

Maintain the Rule Determination in customizing, (In SPRO, APO --> GATP --> RBA)

Create Condition Table





4

Create Access Sequence:





5

Create Condition type and assign the Access Sequence

Create Rule Strategy





8

In the Check Instruction, make sure that RBA is active. (Check mode ZQT and Business event A)





9

The available stock for different products in different locations:

Product Location Stock (EA)

DEMO_1 PL0001 5

DEMO_2 PL0001 5

DEMO_3 PL0001 2

DEMO_1 PL0006 10

DEMO_2 PL0006 10

DEMO_3 PL0006 2

DEMO_1 DC3000 10

DEMO_2 DC3000 0

DEMO_3 DC3000 0

Simulate the ATP check using ATP Simulation transaction /SAPAPO/AC04

The substitution takes place across all locations and products.

Excluding location DC3000 from RBA:

Now the situation arises that the business does not want to promise materials from the location DC3000.

Create a rule with the location list containing DC3000

The rule should be of type 'Inclusive'.






13






14

Setup the Rule Determination with the Rule strategy to exclude the location DC3000

Create a new Condition type and assign the Access Sequence already created






15

Create Rule Strategy







16

In the Rule Strategy Sequence (RSS1) already created, assign the newly created Exclusive Rule Strategy.

Assign the created rule DEMO-EX to the required rule determination conditions







17

Now Simulate ATP check in the ATP Simulation transaction /SAPAPO/AC04.

19






20

We can see that the location DC3000 is not considered for the substitution. Only PL0001 and PL0006 are

considered.

Click the Rule button and check that both the rules are picked correctly.






21

Thus the location DC3000 can be excluded from the RBA check temporarily by introducing an exclusion rule

strategy. Once the location is ready to supply the products back, the rule strategy can be removed from the rule

strategy sequence, so that it will be included back to the RBA.

Alternative Location PL1300 in the place of excluded

location DC3000

Now the business wants to include the location PL1300 temporarily in the place of DC3000.

Maintain Alternative rule:

Maintain location determination procedure DEMO_ALT1 with the 'Alternative' type. Maintain the location

PL1300 as an alternative location for the DC3000 location.






22

Create Rule 'DEMO-ALT'' with rule type 'Alternative' and assign the created Location Determination Alternative

procedure DEMO_ALT1.






23

Setup the Rule Determination

Create new condition type and assign the access sequence already created.






24

Assign this condition type as the second level in the Rule Strategy EXC2, which was created earlier to exclude

DC3000.








25

Assign the created rule DEMO-ALT to the required rule determination conditions.

The available stock for different products in the location PL1300:

Product Location Stock (EA)

DEMO_1 PL1300 5

DEMO_2 PL1300 5







26

Now Simulate ATP check in the ATP Simulation transaction /SAPAPO/AC04.






27

Now we can see that location PL1300 is included in the list in the place of DC3000.






28

Click the Rule button and check the rule determination has been carried out correctly.





Thus the alternative rule can be used to replace a location with another location.
