How can MRP exception messages and reschedule dates integrated to AN via product activity messages

Hello Experts,

Is there possibility to integrate MRP exception messages and rescheduling dates to Ariba Network either via Product activity messages or any other means for better supply chain collaboration.

Thanks in Advance,

Hello @Chandrashekhar_Sajjan - If I understand correctly, goal of these messages is to identify supply orders which need to be either scheduled to future (i.e., pushed), scheduled closer to the present day (i.e., pulled), or removed as unnecessary (i.e., canceled). Do you know exactly what is the business requirement or where we  want to see these messages because it is just a list of values (i.e. code and descriptions) ?

Hello Mridul,

As schedule lines are integrated to Ariba on weekly basis but there are high chances that the demand gets changed in between the week so the supplier wants to know whether any demand is being pushed or pulled so that he can plan the deliveries accordingly. It would be great if the pushed/pulled dates are shown against schedule lines in "Items to confirm" or "Items to ship" tiles but that would be a enhancement. Otherwise, if we can integrate these changes along with product activity messages that will also work.
