Parameter Effectivity in ECC and SAP IBP

[former_member1183508]

In ECC we leverage Parameter based effectivity which then MRP uses to plan against and given a certain date a given BOM could have different structure. How can I get IBP to reflect these various BOM structures for a given top level product? Seem there is no answer in IBP to handle parameter based effectivity. Any thoughts or workarounds you can suggest would be appreciated.

Hi Michael,

In my understanding, not all scenarios under parameter effectivity can be modeled in IBP. However, the scenarios like choosing a particular BOM for a particular time frame can be managed using validity master data types in IBP. Please refer below link for more details on Production Source Item Validity MDT.

Hope this helps!!
