Planning Optimization fit analysis helps you identify where the result might differ between the deprecated master planning engine and Planning Optimization. The system runs this analysis based on your current setup and data.
You should analyze the result from the Planning Optimization fit analysis as part of the migration process. The scope of Planning Optimization isn't equal to the deprecated master planning engine functionality. Work with your partner and read the documentation to prepare for the migration.
Note
- The Planning Optimization fit analysis can't identify some inconsistencies. For more information, see Differences between classic master planning and Planning Optimization.
- If the analysis finds inconsistencies, you can still use Planning Optimization. The results of the fit analysis just show places where the planning service doesn't honor your current setup. In other words, they show places where some processes might be ignored or aren't supported.
Run Planning Optimization fit analysis
To run the Planning Optimization fit analysis and view the results, follow these steps.
- Select a company (legal entity) from the company picker in the navigation bar.
- Go to Master planning > Setup > Planning Optimization fit analysis.
- On the Action Pane, select Run analysis.
- The system runs the analysis and then shows the results. For each result that shown, consult the table later in this article to see whether that feature is currently supported for Planning Optimization and, if it isn't yet supported, when support is expected to become available. If no issues exist for your selected company, the result list is blank, and you receive a "No issues found" message.
- Repeat this procedure for each company in your organization.
Possible results from the fit analysis
The following table shows the various results that can appear after a fit analysis. Number signs (#) are replaced with a number that indicates the number of records that have the listed issue.
Important
For features that aren't yet supported, the following table provides an availability estimate based on our current roadmap. These estimates are subject to change without notice.
| Feature | Listed issue | Explanation | Expected availability |
|---|---|---|---|
| Actions | Coverage groups with Actions calculation enabled: # | This feature is now supported. | Supported |
| Base calendars | Calendars using base calendar: # | This feature is now supported. | Supported |
| Batch disposition codes | Non-nettable batch disposition masters: # | This feature is now supported. Learn more in Use batch disposition codes to mark batches as available or unavailable | Supported |
| Capable to promise (CTP) | Default order settings with delivery date control set to CTP: # | In Supply Chain Management 10.0.28 and newer, a process called CTP for Planning Optimization makes confirmed ship and receipt dates available after the dynamic plan runs. For older versions of Supply Chain Management, the legacy CTP setting is ignored when Planning Optimization is enabled. | Supported |
| Firming | Coverage groups with auto firming time fence set: # | In version 10.0.7 and later, firming is supported as a separate firming batch job after master planning is completed. Auto firming for Planning Optimization is based on the order date (start date), not the requirement date (end date). This behavior ensures that firming of planned orders occurs in due time, without having to include lead time in the firming time fence. | Supported |
| Firming | Item coverage records with auto firming set: # | In version 10.0.7 and later, auto firming is supported as a separate firming batch job after master planning is completed. Auto firming for Planning Optimization is based on the order date (start date), not the requirement date (end date). This behavior ensures that firming of planned orders occurs in due time, without having to include lead time in the firming time fence. | Supported |
| Firming | Master plans with auto firming set: # | In version 10.0.7 and later, auto firming is supported as a separate firming batch job after master planning is completed. Auto firming for Planning Optimization is based on the order date (start date), not the requirement date (end date). This behavior ensures that firming of planned orders occurs in due time, without having to include lead time in the firming time fence. | Supported |
