	<HelpTopic><AimSection><Paragraph>Use this session to convert a plan item's <Link href="/baanerp/cp/glossary/glossary#000018" role="glossary">production plan</Link> and/or <Link href="/baanerp/cp/glossary/glossary#000023" role="glossary">purchase plan</Link> to planned orders.</Paragraph>
		</AimSection>
		<GeneralSection><Paragraph>This is especially helpful, if you manually entered plan quantities and want to retain these plan quantities within the <Link href="/baanerp/cp/glossary/glossary#000065" role="glossary">order horizon</Link>, or if the order horizon is set to zero, for example, if you use <Link href="/baanerp/cp/glossary/glossary#000013" role="glossary">workload control</Link>. If you select the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp/rmp/cprmp2240m000#set.firm" role="formfield">Order Status to Firm-Planned</GUIRef> check box, the generated orders are immediately set to <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp/domains/rrp.osta#firmplanned" role="enum">Firm Planned</GUIRef>, which prevents SSA ERP from removing these orders during a normal order planning run.</Paragraph>
			<ProcedureList><ListIntro>To convert a plan to planned orders:</ListIntro>
				<ListItem>Specify a scenario and a plan level.</ListItem>
				<ListItem>Select a range of plan items.</ListItem>
				<ListItem>Select a range of planners. Of the selected item range, SSA ERP only takes the items assigned to these planners into account. If you do not want to constrain your item selection by selecting planners, set the planner range to maximum.</ListItem>
				<ListItem>Select the range of plan periods for which SSA ERP must convert the production plan and/or purchase plan to planned orders.</ListItem>
				<ListItem>Select the appropriate check boxes.</ListItem>
				<ListItem>Click <GUIRef href="" role="manual">Continue</GUIRef>.</ListItem>
			</ProcedureList>
			<Paragraph>The <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp/rmp/cprmp2240m000" role="session">Convert Master Plan to Planned Orders (cprmp2240m000)</GUIRef> session is multi-site enabled. This means that you can use the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp/rmp/cprmp2240m000#move.multi" role="formfield">Move in Multi-site</GUIRef> check box and define a range of plan sites in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp/rmp/cprmp2240m000#multi.site.from" role="formfield">From</GUIRef> field and the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp/rmp/cprmp2240m000#multi.site.to" role="formfield">To</GUIRef> field that SSA ERP takes into account to support multi-site relations in planning.</Paragraph>
			<Note><SectionTitle>Note</SectionTitle>
				<List><ListItem>For each planned order that is generated, SSA ERP uses the end date of the originating plan period as the requirement date.</ListItem>
					<ListItem>If you define more than one supplier, SSA ERP splits purchase plan quantities over multiple suppliers in the usual way.</ListItem>
					<ListItem>Lot sizing rules are taken into account. As a result, the plan quantities and the generated order quantities do not always match exactly. If for one plan period the total order quantity exceeds the original plan quantity, SSA ERP reduces the order quantity for the next plan period accordingly.</ListItem>
				</List>
			</Note>
			<Paragraph>You do not need to convert production plan quantities and purchase plan quantities to planned orders before SSA ERP can transfer them to the <Link href="/baanerp/cp/glossary/glossary#000027" role="glossary">execution level</Link>. In the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp/pat/cppat1210m000" role="session">Transfer Planned Orders (cppat1210m000)</GUIRef> session, you can also directly transfer production plans and purchase plans.</Paragraph>
			<Note><SectionTitle>Note</SectionTitle>
				<Paragraph>SSA ERP only moves purchase plans to planned orders, and not to purchase schedule quantities. See also <Link href="/baanerp/cp/onlinemanual/000078" role="manual">Purchase schedules and Enterprise Planning</Link>.</Paragraph>
