Setup hierarchy levels/sequences for applying planned order types to fulfill demand.


Businesses that utilize the same materials across multiple sites and warehouse often purchase material that may already be stocked in another location.


It would be incredibly beneficial if planned order types could be sequenced so that I could plan to transfer material if inventory is on hand in another site/warehouse and not pegged to any demand. If no inventory is available (and not pegged to any existing demand order), the system would use a planned purchase order type instead.


This function allows businesses to consume already purchased/stocked materials across their organization before purchasing additional material. Assuming inventory is available, but the planner does not want to transfer material, they could simply override by changing the planned transfer to a planned purchase order. This manual override is far easier to manage than checking all on hand inventory for every part prior to order firming.

Looking at the aging of the materials would be great to add to this requirement. SAP has the ability to look across warehouses/sites without super complicated coverage setup that doesn't conflict or require a change to the material's default order type.

This is a really good and needed Idea. Are there dublicates with more votes?
