Features
The procurement proposals include:
- planned orders (for materials that are procured externally or produced in-house)
- purchase requisitions (for materials that are procured externally)
- schedule lines (for materials that are procured externally and for which a source list entry and a scheduling agreement already exist)
Planned orders and purchase requisitions are internal planned elements that can be changed, rescheduled or deleted at any time.
In contrast, delivery schedules are fixed receipt elements, which must be followed. They therefore only belong to the procurement proposals in a broader sense (see Determining the Procurement Proposal).
The creation indicators in the initial screen of the planning run determine which procurement proposals are created during the planning run (see Creation Indicator).
