Documentation
Definition
Use
This setting is used in SAP Forecasting and Replenishment (SAP F&R) to identify purchase order items as replenishment relevant for the supplying plant and/or the receiving plant, or neither of them. If an order is replenishment relevant, the order quantity is considered by the requirements calculation as a planned goods issue for the supplying plant and/or as a planned goods receipt for the receiving plant.
The following replenishment relevancy values are possible:
- 1 - Replenishment relevant for receiving plant (as goods receipt)
This is the default value and is compatible with earlier releases. Order items are only considered as planned good receipts for the receiving plant but not the supplying plant. If the order is delinquent, then the goods issue will be considered as well. This is typically used if the demand is already included in the demand forecast of the supplying plant.
- 2 - Replenishment relevant for supplying plant (as goods issue)
You select this value in an exceptional stock-transfer scenario between two plants, for example, from a distribution center to a store for an extra push quantity. Since the additional demand for the supplying plant is not yet included in the demand forecast, it is considered as extra demand (open good issue) by the requirement calculation. At the same time, it is not considered for the requirement calculation of the receiving plant as it is supposed to be additional demand.
- 3 - Replenishment relevant for both plants
You select this value in an exceptional stock-transfer scenario between, for example, two distribution centers. The order quantity is considered in the requirements calculation of both the supplying plant and the receiving plant.
- 0 - Not relevant
In this case, the order quantity is not considered for replenishment calculation of any plant.
When specifying a replenishment relevancy value, note the following:
- Automatic replenishment in SAP F&R creates order proposal items with replenishment relevancy value of 1 that specifies material and receiving plant as replenishment relevant as goods receipt. Manually-created order proposals can deviate from this setting.
- For purchase orders created in SAP Retail, the order outbound process adds the replenishment relevancy value specified for the respective purchase order document type at order item level. SAP recommends that you use the default setting for the regular purchase order document type used for automatic replenishment in SAP F&R. For exceptional cases, such as stock transfer between two distribution centers or push, SAP recommends that you create specific order document types and select the required replenishment relevancy value.
- If you change the replenishment relevancy value, SAP Retail retransfers purchase orders items that are still open, in other words, that have not been completed yet. This is triggered by the delta load.
Dependencies
If the selected replenishment relevancy value means that the order item is relevant for the supplying plant (that is, value 2 or 3), the setting Transmission of POs for F&R-Relevant Supplying Plants in the Customizing activity Maintain Basic Settings for Data Transfer is important.
This setting controls whether or not purchase order items are transferred to SAP F&R even if only the supplying plant is SAP F&R relevant for that item. By default, only purchase orders with SAP F&R-relevant receiving plants are transferred.
