Carrying Out the Planning Run (PP-MRP-PR) 
Implementation Options
You use the Planning execution (PP-MRP-PR) component for planning material requirements for all materials or assemblies whose requirements or stock situation has changed.
To do this, you start a planning run.
Features
- You can execute a planning run
- for a plant, several plants, an MRP area, several MRP areas or a combination of these (total planning)
- for a single material or product group (single-item planning).
- The following functions are provided:
- Total planning
- Single-item, single-level planning
- Multi-level single-item planning
- Interactive planning
- Multi-level, make-to-order production
- Individual project planning
You can find information on individual project planning in the SAP documentation for the Project System.

- In consumption-based planning, total planning and single-item planning are only executed on a single level.
- Interactive planning is not useful in long-term planning and is therefore not supported by this function.
- Using certain control parameters, you can determine how the planning run is to be executed.
