When we run a CTM run, what are the outputs? just demand transfer or creation of planned orders corresponding to the demand at plant too?
Example:
I have demand of 100 PCs at a DC which is sourced by two plants P1 and P2. I setup the quotas to have the plant P1 source product to DC. There is no stock at either P1 or P2.
I know if I run a Heuristic, the system creates just a purchase requisition at DC and purchase req. release (demand) at P1 and stops and I have to run another run at the plant P1 to generate a planned orders. I also have to deploy the stock from plant to DC in a deployment run.
My question is, when I run CTM, does the system just create a stock transfer at DC and purchase req. release (demand)at P1 or the system goes ahead and creates a planned order at P1 ( provided there is enough capacity at P1 resource)? Does the system deploy the product from plant to DC as well or that needs to be done through a separate deployment run?
