Collective Availability Check for Components in Planned Orders 
Use
In the collective availability check you can check whether the components required are available for several planned orders simultaneously. This is particularly useful if you want to convert several planned orders simultaneously, for example, a nd you want to check beforehand if and by when the components are available.
Integration
Just like the individual check in the planned order, you can carry out the collective availability check according to ATP logic or against planned independent requirements.
In assembly orders the availability check does not update the sales order.
You can find further information on the availability check under Availability Check for the Components in Planned Order..
Prerequisites
- To be able to carry out the collective availability check, you need a profile order view. In the standard system the profile order view 000001 is used. The profile controls the formatting of the overview list with the planned orders selected (field selection, field sequence).
- For the missing parts/component list, a profile is also used in the standard system: profile component view 000001. The profile component view controls the formatting of the component list (field selection, field sequence).
You can create your own profile in Customizing for MRP, under Carry out collective availability check, or you can copy and change the profile 000001.
Features
You can carry out the collective availability check in two ways:
- in the foreground
- in the background
