Functionality
You can use this method to perform a requirements planning for amaterial.
Depending on the properties of the material and the control parametersof the method, the following planning functions are supported:

• Single- and multi-level single-item planning for requirements planning
materials

• Single- and multi-level single-item planning for master schedule items


• Single- and multi-level single-item planning for materials in the
long-term planning
The method executes the respective planning function in the system andreturns a list of all the planned materials. The list contains thefundamental basic planning parameters (exception messages, ranges ofcoverage, and so on) for each planned material.

COMMIT control
For the single- and multi-level planning, the planning results areposted by materials. The COMMIT WORK command is executed afterevery planned material.

Parameter dependencies


• In systems with inactive MRP areas, you must specify the plant
parameter as well as the material parameter.

• In systems with active MRP areas, you can specify the plant and
MRP_Area parameters as you choose.

• If only the Plant parameter is filled, then the material is
planned in the plant MRP area. If only the MRP_Area istransferred, then the planning is carried out in the specified MRP area.If both parameters are filled, then a compatibility test is performed,which can lead to a corresponding error message.

Additional methods
To select the detailed planning results of the planned materials, youcan use the following methods:


• Material.GetMRPList


• Material.GetStockRequirementsList

Description
This structure contains specifications related to the databaseand runtime statistic of material planning.
The parameter NO_MATERIAL contains the number of plannedmaterials.
The parameters in the form NO_

_<(>
<<)>INS|UPD|DEL|LOG> contain information about the number oftimes the database was accessed.
The following tables may have been accessed:

• Table PLAF: Planned orders


• Table EBAN: Purchase requisitions


• Table RESB: Dependent requirements, dependent reservations,
stock transfer reservations

• Tabelle MDSM: Simulated dependent requirements


• View MDLP: Scheduling agreement schedule line


• Tabelle KBED: Capacity requirements records


• Tabelle KBKO: Header records for capacity requirements


• Tabelle RQIT: Total requirement records

The type of database access is indicated by the followingsuffixes:

• INS: Number of added data records


• UPD: Number of changed data records


• DEL: Number of deleted data records


• LOG: Number of logically deleted data objects (deletion flag)

The parameters related to the runtime of Business Add-In methodswithin planning are related to the following planning steps orBusiness Add-Ins (BAdI):

• BADIT_LIST: BAdI for updating MRP list


• BADIT_READ: BAdIs for reading the initial situation for planning


• BADIT_BOM: BAdI for determination of the production version


• BADIT_SOURCE: BAdI for determination of the source of supply


• BADIT_PURPL: BAdIs for changing and updating planned orders
and purchase requisitions

• BADIT_IPPE: BAdI for explosion of alternative BOM structures
(IPPE)

• BADIT_CUOBJ: BAdI for determination of alternative
configuration valuations
