PP Planning Strategy 52


Strategy '50' is used for MTO scenario where
PIR is allowed but Production for the FG is only allowed
when Sales Order comes in. The reason for
Strategy '50' over '20' is Sales Order lead time may be
too short for component planning. Hence, a PIR is
allowed with Strategy '50' to plan for the components.

Strategy '52' is a derivation of '50' and it is designed
for the MTS scenario. Here, the Production for the FG
is only allowed when the Sales Order comes in
(similar to '50' using the Order type 'VP' and Conversion Indicator).
However, the PIR will proceed with the Component Planning.

You can use the Individual/Collective Indicator
for both '52' and '50' to control the behavior of
the components to follow its parent or not.
