Production Receipts being cleared out

[willsuus]

We ran our monthly heuristic last week. Today, when we looked, all of the Production Receipts data was gone. And, for other key figures that have SourceId as part of their planning level, the data is also gone. We do a replace on the following MDTs daily - SourceLocation, SourceProduction and ProductionSourceItem - would this cause the problem? If so, how is this resolved as we don't want "old" bom data, etc. in the system?

We determined that the cause of the issue was loading ProductionSourceHeader as a REPLACE.

Hi,

PRODUCTION KF has base planning level as WKPRODLOCSRC, so if at any point of time SOURCEID is deleted from IBP system, then PRODUCTION KF will be deleted as its root attribute in that planning level.

Better copy the Production Receipt KF into KF as WKPRODLOC into a new KF to keep it without any dependency on SOURCEID.

Thanks
