S4 Hana - SAP PP MRP Live - Characteristics Planning

[VigneshV]

Hi Gurus,

PIR is done for a Variant configuration material in which characteristics planning is given as input.

When trying to execute MD01N getting below message.

MRP Live will not support => characteristics planning ? Seeking your inputs in this.

Regards,

V Vignesh

Hello

With MRP Live, most of the MRP code was pushed down into HANA stored procedures, so that it could be executed faster. Some settings, however, still can't be planned with those stored procedures and, when MRP Live finds one of these settings, it will automatically plan your material in ABAP, with the classic MRP programs.

In principle, you don't need to do anything, since your material should be correctly planned by MRP Live. You can confirm that by checking the MRP results after running transaction MD01N.

This message is just there to inform you that this material was planned in ABAP, rather than in HANA. You can find a complete list of those restrictions in the following note:

1914010 - MD01N: Restrictions for Planning in MRP Live on HANA

vigneshveerasamy,

Using the MRP Fiori App 'MRP Master Data Issues' or transaction MD_MRP_MATERIAL_INFO or transaction MD_MRP_FORCE_CLASSIC you can see for which materials MRP Live has detected a restriction.

Thanks
