Hi PSS,

Allocation Table is a planning tool used by a purchasing organization to allocate stocks of a material among plants at specific periods.

Allocation tables can be made based on certain <b>Allocation Rules</b>, which allows you to process allocation tables with a high degree of automation and standardization. The allocation rule defines the ratio by which the stock is to be split among the sites or <b>site groups</b> contained within the allocation rule. If an allocation rule is not used, a site group can be entered in the allocation table instead. The stock will then be split equally among the sites entered in the site group

Steps are given below:

a) Create <b>Site Group </b> <b>WB50</b>

b) Select <b> 030 Site Grouping</b>

c) Enter a Class Name in <b>Class</b> and Save

d) Maintain Assignment to Class Sites in a Class <b>WB56</b>

e) Select again 030 ( Site Grouping)

f) Enter yr Class Name created earlier

g) Click on <b>Only New assignment</b>

h) Select Object type <b>Plant</b>

i) Select your <b>Plant Names </b> and <b>Save</b>

j) Cr Allocation Rule<b> WA21</b>

k) Enter Allocaion Rule Type

l) Enter yr Pur Orgn,Pur Gr,and click on <b>Base Site Group</b>

m) Enter name in Allocation Rule

n) Enter Article,Site Group and Save

o) System will ask whether you want to fix the rule click Yes

p) Click <b>Quotas</b> column

q) Enter Site wise quantity and Save

r) Cr Allocn Table <b> WA01 </b>

s) Choose Allcn Table Type,Pur Org, Pur Gr

t) Enter Allocn Table Name,Site Dly Date, DC Dly Date,Article,Planned Qty

u) Enter <b>Allocation Rule or Site Group</b> and Save

Hope this helps.

Hi,

The Allocation Retail is a tool used to plan, coordinate and monitor the supply of merchandise to sites (stores or distribution centers).

Allocation should be used in PUSH scenarios in Retail business.

For creation of allocation, refer other reply.
