Re: CO09

Sethuraman,

CO09 - ROH13

In the first line, rec/reqd quantity is shown as 100. As mentioned before, this is obtained by raising a Purchase order. Why is it showing as 0 and not 100 in the column *** ATP qty (1^st line)?

Well, the Purchase order has evidently not yet been raised.

The first subsection of CO09 rows show "plant level" ATP.  The ATP quantity is zero because at the plant level, the cumulated ATP quantity of 100 that would have been represented by 'stock' are reduced by the 100 confirmed reservation.

3 Ord Res (-100 each) corresponds to three Production orders created for HALB4. For 1^st Ord Res we can see 100 in “confirmed” quantity. This is because of availability of 100 pieces as stock.

No.  This is because you have performed an ATP for the first production order, and it was confirmed. Therefore the reservation (OrdRes) which was generated by the first production order shows as being confirmed.

The other two Production orders are not released because of material shortage and the corresponding “confirmed” quantity is shown as 0. Why it is that *** ATP qty is shown as 0 for 1^st Ord Res?

Cumulated ATP quantity is the quantity that would be available for a new ATP check.  Currently, at the plant level, NOTHING is available for a new ATP check, for the time horizon between 'now' and throughout the end of the plant-level display.

CO09 - HALB4

 

Any Production order (even if not released due to material shortage) creates a corresponding entry in *** ATP qty. But why it is that even physical stock doesn't show up that way in the *** ATP qty corresponding to 1^st line of CO09 - ROH13?

With respect to 'stock', pls check again.  I believe you will find that there is no stock for HALB4.

In your current display, the production orders serve to increase the cumulated ATP quantity (there are no confirmed requirements to reduce the *** ATP qty).

*** ATP qty shows even expected numbers from Production orders even if some of them are not even released. How about the column “confirmed”? Do they show only available physical stock?

I don't understand the question.  'Confirmed' shows 'confirmed', which in general is only relevant for requirements, and not for supply elements (such as production orders). Physically available stock (which is another type of supply element) is neither confirmed nor unconfirmed; it is just stock.

According to your ATP scope of check, ALL production orders (both released and unreleased) serve to increase the cumulated ATP quantity.
