IBP Supply - Customer receipts based on demand proportions in constrained run

[gurucharanscm]

Hi - Can someone please suggest how I can achieve the below scenario in IBP supply?

I have 2 products P1 and P2 (2 taken for example, can be more) at customer C1, sourced from DC1, sourced from PLANT1 using one resource PAINT1.

Demand P1/C1 = 100

Demand P2/C1 = 200

Constraint Supply on resource PAINT1 = 150

The output should be that each product should share the supply in the proportions of the demands - i.e. I should receive the customer receipts of 50 for P1/C1 and 100 for P2/C1.

Can someone please suggest a way?

PS: The 'delivery maximization' algorithm in the optimizer doesn't work this way. And I can't go with Fair Share with segments as it doesn't in fact give to me this expectation as the capacity is changing each bucket and I can't decide the segments accordingly - though however in this example, the solution is achieved with no. of segments being 2.

Thanks for the support,.

Regards - Guru

Hi Guru,

I agree with Neeraj's suggestion of using segments, that is, Optimizer's Fair-Share Distribution.

You may use the planning feature for "Non-Delivery" and use, for example, 4 segments. Then the calculation will split the demands into 4 parts of 25% each. Considering your example, Constrained Receipts would be 50 for P1/C1 and 100 for P2/C1.

More information about Fair-Share Distribution, please refer to the SAP Help Portal page .

Hi Guru,

You can calculate the proportional factor here and use it in Adjusted Customer receipts according to the proportional factor.

Hi Guru,

I think adding more segments will work. Try adding up to 10 segments for non delivery cost & use profit maximization option.

The results won't be accurate but will be close.
