Logistics Planning
1 PurposeThe purpose of logistics planning is to make sure that future demand can be satisfied by your company’s available resources and to point out situations where demand cannot be met in time or inthe desired quantities.
This process sometimes is called Sales and Operations Planning . The process usually takes placein a simulative mode and at an aggregated (usually product group) level. Once a feasible productionplan is found that satisfies demand it can be used as the basis for operational production planning(MRP and Detailed Capacity Scheduling).
The Best Practices scenarios in this section cover the following planning workflow:
• Planning/forecasting of future demand
• Aggregated production planning including capacity check to check at product group level if
demand can be satisfied (using the SOP functionality)
• Transfer of results to Long Term Planning (using the LTP module) to enable simulation of
material requirements, based on the production plans
• Planning takes place in separate (simulative) planning versions within LTP
• Review and adjustments of planned requirements as needed
• Once the simulated requirements are accepted, the demand (independent requirements) is
then transferred to active demand management for detailed MRP and Production Planning /Scheduling in the active version.
2 Prerequisites2.1 Master Data and Organizational Data
A range of indispensable master and organizational data was created in your ERP system in theimplementation phase, such as the data that reflects the organizational structure of your company,and master data that suits its operational focus, such as master data for materials, vendors,customers, and so on.
This master data usually consists of standardized SAP Best Practices default values and enablesyou to go through the process steps of this scenario.
You can test the scenario with other material, or organizational data for which you havecreated master data. To find out how to create master data, refer to the Master DataProcedures documentation.
Use the following master data in the process steps described in this document:

4 Process Steps
4.1 Sales and Operation Planning
Sales & Operation Planning (SOP) is the link between sales planning and manufacturing.
It is a forecasting and planning transaction to enable sales, production, inventory targets to bereached based on historical, existing, and estimated future data. In the process described below weuse SOP to:
o Verify the sales (demand) plan coming from COPA or other sources
o Create a Rough-cut production plan aimed to satisfy demand and to meet inventory targets
o Visualize capacity utilization of the critical resources (usually the bottleneck resources) to
verify the feasibility of the plan at an aggregated level.
SOP is suitable for long- and medium-term planning.
In this process, you view the S&OP figures. This is done after sales figures have been transferred
from CO-PA to SOP.You can visualize the following key figures
• Sales plan
• Production plan
• Projected Stock
4.1.1 Demand Verification (Check Sales Plan)
Use
In this activity, you check the sales plan at material level. In this scenario it is assumed that the sales
plan has been created at product group level.Therefore you can disaggregate your sales figures to a material to verify demand at an aggregatedlevel.
Also the opposite direction is possible (but not shown in this scenario): If your sales plan has beencreated at product group level you can disaggregate the plan according to predefined proportionalfactors to the material level. In this case it is useful to define the proportional factors according tohistorical sales figures to come to realistic forecasts at material level.
Prerequisites
This can be done after sales figures have been transferred to SOP from CO-PA.

3. Choose Inactive version.
4. In the Product group members dialog box, select the materials.
5. In the Disaggregation dialog box, select Create sales plans and Disaggregate sales plan andchoose Enter .
6. If the Check proportions dialog box displays, choose Yes.
7. Save your entries.
Result
You have viewed the S&OP figures on product group level and created the sales plan on materiallevel based on the sales plan on product group level.
4.1.2 Create Rough-Cut Production Plan
Use
In this activity, you generate the rough cut production plan based on your sales forecast. For this youhave several options (see below).

You are still in the transaction for Demand verification (see previous chapter) andcontinue without leaving it. If you have left the transaction run through step 1 - 5 of thisprocess before continuing with the next step.
2. From the menu, choose Edit → Create production plan → Synchronous to sales. This makes
production figures equal to sales at product group and material levels.
3. In standard SOP, additional strategies for generating production plants exist. These can beactivated from the following menu path:
Edit → Create production plan → <create production plan option>
a. Production quantities are the same as sales quantities in each period ("synchronous tosales")
b. Production quantities are such that target stock levels are reached
c. Production quantities are such that target days’ supplies are reached
d. Production quantities are such that the stock level at the end of each period is zero.
Result
You have created the production plan on material level based on the sales plan on product grouplevel.
4.1.3 Transfer Rough-Cut Production Plan to Inactive DemandManagement
UseIn this activity, you transfer the inactive version of the production plan from SOP to DemandManagement where the quantities are posted as planned independent requirements.
For several purposes you can post the production plan at first in an inactive version.
In our scenario we use inactive versions for the following purposes:
• Version 001 for simulation and long term procurement purposes (forecast)
described in this document
• Version 002: for supporting the annual budgeting process (see 173: SOP through Long
Term Planning Transfer to LIS/PIS/Capacity )
Procedure
1. Access the transaction choosing one of the following navigation options:

single material in Demand Management, use transaction MD63 (or menu path Logistics→
Production→ Production Planning → Demand Management → Planned Independent Requirements

4.2 Long Term Planning
In long-term planning, future demand programs are simulated within a planning run. This allows youto calculate capacity requirements, activity type requirement of the cost centers, and of therequirement of purchased parts.
© SAP AG Page 13 of 25
7/29/2019 144_BPP_EN_US
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/144bppenus 14/25
SAP Best Practices Logistics Planning (144): BPD
The demand programs that can be simulated may include planned independent requirements and/or sales orders.
You can evaluate and optimize the simulation regarding material requirements planning, capacityplanning, order volumes, purchasing budget, cost center planning, and inventory controlling.Following the evaluation of the simulative planning results, you can replace the current demandprogram with the preferred version in long-term planning and can continue it there.
You can transfer the data for external procurement to the purchasing information system using aspecial report and evaluate it there.
The principle of long-term planning is to simulate different versions of the demand program. Thesimulation can take into account operative data (for example, master data, sales orders, purchaseorders, production orders).
The simulation can be used to optimize the demand program and the production and procurementdata regarding material requirements planning, capacity planning, order volumes, purchasingbudget, cost center planning, and inventory controlling.
Long-term planning can also be executed based on operative master data: BoMs, routings, workcenters, and material masters. This means you do not have to create any new operative data.
4.2.1 Create Long Term Planning Scenario
Use
For simulation purposes, you set up LTP-Planning scenarios that represent planning areas you canuse independently from each other.
In this activity, you create the LTP Planning Scenario.
If the LTP planning scenario already exists, use transaction MS32 to make changes.
