Hi Gurus,

We have a requirement from our users that if a particular Sales Order type (ZEX) gets confirmed once, then it should not loose its confirmation during a BOP run for any other (even Higher Delivery Priority Orders)

So we tried to tweak with our FILTER/SORT in our APO BOP JOB.

Current Scenario

Scenario 1-A

Total Stock = 10 EA

SO1 = ZEX = 10 EA – Confirmed – Delivery Priority = 7

SO2 = ZOR = 10  EA– Unconfirmed – Delivery Priority= 3

BOP runs with Current FILTER

BOP Outcome:

SO1 = ZEX = 10 EA– Unconfirmed

SO2 = ZOR = 10 EA– Confirmed

Working Successfully : an open sales order (any order type) with a higher DP gets the stock & confirmed at the cost of another open sales order (any order type) with lower DP.

Desired Scenario

Scenario 1-B

Total Stock =  10

SO1 = ZEX = 10 – Confirmed

SO2 = ZOR = 10 – Unconfirmed

BOP runs (with NEW FILTER)

BOP Outcome:

SO1 = ZEX = 10 – Confirmed (ZEX order types should not loose it's confirmation)

SO2 = ZOR = 10 – Unconfirmed

SUCCESS

So we changed the BOP FILTER to make this happen. But the problem is now the next few scenarios are not working at all.

That is any new open Sales Order of ZOR type is not getting confirmed even if there is ample stock.

Scenario 2

Total Stock =  5 EA

SO1 = ZEX = 5 – Confirmed 5 - Unconfirmed

SO2 = ZOR = 10 – Unconfirmed

Stock = +10 arrives

BOP runs (with NEW FILTER)

Desired BOP Outcome:

SO1 = ZEX = 5 – Confirmed

SO2 = ZOR = 10 – Confirmed

FAILED!

Actual Output

SO1 = ZEX = 10 confirmed

SO2= ZOR = 10 (all still in unconfirmed status, even though we have 5 available stocks)

Please Gurus have a look & advise if you could understand the problem.

We need to understand if the NEW REQUIREMENTS could be achieved by configuration alone?
