Definition

The total of quantities that remain available for sale after the system has taken into account all inward and outward stock movements. These quantities are also known as free or ATP quantities (available-to-promise).

Use

During an availability check, the system determines the ATP quantity for each material and plant. The way the system determines the total depends on how the availability check is set up in Customizing. The ATP quantity forms the basis for confirming further sales order items.

The ATP quantity is calculated as follows:

At first, the total quantity of goods received in a new inward movement is regarded as the ATP quantity. The availability check with ATP logic only includes receipt elements that come before the requirement. The requirement is deducted from the latest inward movement (and its ATP quantity). Any remaining open quantity in the movement is regarded as the ATP quantity and can be used to fulfill the next requirement.

If the quantity of the inward movement is insufficient, the system takes quantities and therefore the ATP quantities in other inward movements until the requirement is completely met.

If there is no longer any available ATP quantity for the requirement or the requirement can only be partially met, this shortage quantity is indicated as a negative ATP quantity in the requirements line.
