For various planning processes it is needed, that for a specific coverage dimension, it is possible to define a priotized list of allowed values.


Example: Inventory Status:


Assume you have Inventory Statuses for product quality:


Q3 - Highest quality

Q2 - Medium quality

Q1 - Low quality

BL - In review

RJ - Rejected - to be returned.


Depending on the customer Requirement, it should be possible to fullfill a customer demand for Q2 with quality Q2 or Q3 (In that sequence).

A customer demand for Q1 should be fulfilled with Q1 - Q2 - or Q3 (In that sequence)


So it should be possible for every dimension value used in an issue transaction what receipt or inventory transactions are allowed to be pegged and in what sequence that pegging should happen (similar to the plan groups, but specific to a dimension).

This should also work for product dimensions, warehouse and eventually Owner or Batch-Number.

Thank you very much for your input. We do not have any current plans to provide such an extended capability in Planning Optimization. We will however continue to monitor how much in demand such an extended  capability is.
