Requirements in the system? I just want to know the
process.Thanks in advance.

Availability Check and Transfer of Requirements
Depending on the system configuration, the SAP System can
check availability for every item in a sales document or
delivery. Furthermore, it creates MRP records and passes
them on to materials planning. The availbility check is
carried out at plant level.
Control elements in Customizing
In addition to other settings, the following control
elements are of particular significance in SD-Customizing:
• In general, the requirements class determines the
requirements classes for which the availability check
and/or transfer of requirements should be carried out. The
global settings at requirements class level can be
differentiated at schedule line level.
• The checking group determines the standard
replenishment lead time and (together with the MRP group)
the type of requirement records (e.g. individual records,
summarized records per day) to be created.
• Checking rule
The checking rule determines the scope of the availability
check and whether or not the replenishment lead time should
be taken into account.
The MRP groups are defined in materials planning in PP
Customizing.
• The system uses the MRP group to determine the
relevant requirements type for a transaction. The
requirements type defines whether the transfer of
requirements or availability check should be carried out
for the respective transaction. The MRP groups must be
defined in collaboration with SD.
• In Release 3.0, you can enter the strategy group
directly into the material master record. It is usually
determined using the MRP group.
Note
The control of the check's scope and the type of
requirements records are interdependent.
Specifications in the material master record
You make two particularly significant specifications in the
material master record for the availability check and
transfer of requirements:
• Checking group (material master record: Sales/plant
data or MRP 2): basically defines whether the availability
check should be carried out for a particular material and
the type of requirements record to be created.
• MRP group (material master record: MRP 1): the
system uses this group to determine the requirements type
relevant for a transaction.
• Strategy group: is an alternative to determining
requirements using the MRP group. You can maintain this
group directly in the material master record.
The following further control elements in the material
master record can also influence the result of the
availability check:
• Planned delivery (MRP 1)
• GR processing time (MRP 1)
• Total replenishment lead time (MRP 2)
Further possibilities for controlling the availability
check and transfer of requirements
The availability check and transfer of requirements can in
principle be controlled independently of one another.
When you create a sales document, the transfer of
requirements and availability check can be carried out
independently. The way in which these are controlled is
dependent on th requirements class and schedule line
category.
When you create a delivery, the availability check can only
be carried out in combination with the transfer of
requirements. Requirements, however, can be transferred
without the availability check being carried out.
These control elements apply to sales documents and
deliveries alike. The procedure and scope of the check can,
however, be controlled separately for sales documents and
deliveries, so that a different type of availability check
is carried out in delivery processing as in sales order
processing, for example. In sales documents, you can block
order quantity confirmation (for certain delivery blocks),
for instance.
