IBP Attributes in Planning Levels

[Former Member]

Hello,

i have two questions related to Attributes in Planning Levels:

1. I want to add an Attribute to a Master Data. Is there a sort of bulk change to add this Attribute to all Planning Levels where the Master Data is inside?

2. Is there a search function to find out in which Planning Levels a specific Master Data and/or Attribute is contained?

Thanks in advance,

Martin

Hi Martin,

If I understood the question correctly, you want to add attributes in certain MDT to some planning levels and you are looking if it can be added all at once. It is not possible. You need to select each planning level.From relevant MDT dropdown in that planning level, select attribute/s that you need to add in that planning level.

2. Take a planning area dump. In Model configuration app, select Planning Area and Details. Choose your planning area from left pane and click on Export to CSV button (4th from left).

In downloaded csv files, look for file name PLEVELS_ATTRS. You will find attribute - MDT - Planning level linkage.

If you are looking for quickly adding a new attribute from MDT to a planning level, select the planning level from left pane (Model Configuration -> Planning Levels), click on Expand all button next to the search box and type attribute ID to be added in the search box and select the attribute from MDT dropdown.

Thank you two for the answers. That means that the first one is not possible and the second only by using the csv export workaround.

That's unfortunate.

Hi Martin

1) unfortunately not

2) If you go to Planning Area Configuration (in the group of Model Configuration), and in there to the tab "Attributes", then filter on your attribute. On the right side of the attribute you will find a number under "Planning level" which is not only the number in how many planning levels your attribute is used, but when you click on it you will get the respective list.

Alternatively, download the whole configuration as csv files, and one of them will be the assignment of attributes to planning levels. You get the download in the same app when clicking in the upper right corner on the three dots --> "Download Planning Area" which has a symbol of excel file. You get to the download as well when you are in the old app "Configuration" within the same group, go to planning area and there in the row with all the buttons click the 4th from left "Export to csv"
