Which Strategy Group is OK?

[former_member160282]

I thinking about the answer to this question. Lots of websites provide the answer B (Planning without final assembly (50) ), but I thinking about answer D, because we have hear consumption of planned independent requirements for the semi-finished material. Please help me and explain your answer.

You want to triggering-house production of a semi-finished mater al before a sales order for the corresponding finished good is received. Which planning strategy supports the consumption of planned independent requirements for the semi-finished material?

A) Make-to-order production (20) B) Planning without final assembly (50) C) Planning with final assembly (40) D) Planning at assembly level (70)

Think the same as Caetano, for Strategy 50 you enter PIRs for FG, not for SFG, is SAP wrong here??

[Caetano]

If you need to create PIRs for your semi-finished products, then you need to use strategy 70.

Hello Natalia

You can use either planning without final assembly for your finished product or a combination of strategy 20 for the finished product and strategy 70 for the semi-finished.

I would suggest strategy 70 if you have a key semi-finished product that you need to procure in advance and your forecast is created for this specific assembly.

Otherwise, if you forecast at finished-product level, it would be easier to use a strategy like 50.

Hello Ceatano,

but question is: Which planning strategy supports the consumption of planned independent requirements for the semi-finished material and is only one answer out of four.

When I used strategy like 50, I don't see consumption of planned independent requirements for the semi-finished material. Consumption PIR is at the finished-product level, Therefore, I would reject this answer, but I preferred to make sure.

Regards,

Natalia

caetano.almeida I think it is a certificate question not a real life requirement.

Hello natalia.wasowicz

As per SAP Help:

• Make-to-Order Production (20) - there is not consumption, only reduction
• Planning w/o Final Assembly (50) - consumption on the finished product level
• Planning with Final Assembly (40) - consumption on the finished product level
• Planning at Assembly Level (70) - consumption on the assembly (semi-finished) level

Best regards

Hello Dominik Tylczynski

Thank You for your answer, in that case, my thinking about 70 strategy was ok.
