Forecasting should not consider Sales orders (Order Type)

[narasimhareddy_tavanam]

We have some materials which we want to sell to our customers (due to too much stock or any other reason), the requirement is to ignore those specific orders with those specific materials what is means is we do not want that sales information considered by forecasting. Example: If we have a sales order type which can be used to create these sales orders ( one offs) so that that data (order type) can be ignored by planning in MM MRP type. Is there anyway we can achieve this functionality in standard? If yes how can we do this? Thank you in advance.

Hello,

If you have specific Materials for which you do not want MRP to be executed, in Material master, Sales General/Plant View, maintain Availability check as KP.

This is will ensure the Sales Order for these Materials will not go through MRP check.

Thanks,

Hi Jignesh Mehta,

Thank you for your reply. If we maintain availability check as KP, how does that help sales orders getting created not considered by forecasting? Ultimately, I do not want system to consider sales orders into forecasting? Thank you in advance.

Hi,

Yes you can filter on Sales order document type as well along with few other criteria. Please explore below configuration path.

SPRO->Logistics - General -> Merchandise Lifecycle Optimization->Outbound->Handling of Document Types-

->Maintain Sales Order Document Types ( what you maintain those will be transferred- inclusion list)

You also have a BADI creation provision as follows to apply any filter - DMF_BADI_SALES_ORDR_RFC of enhancement spot
