	<GeneralSection><Paragraph>In a <Link href="/baanerp/cp/glossary/glossary#000035" role="glossary">component CTP check</Link> for an item, SSA ERP checks whether a sufficient quantity of the components of the item is available to produce that item.</Paragraph>
		<List><ListIntro>As a rule, a component CTP check is carried out in the following situation:</ListIntro>
			<ListItem>The ATP of an item is checked.</ListItem>
			<ListItem>The item's ATP value is insufficient to cover the demand involved.</ListItem>
			<ListItem>Component CTP checks are enabled for the item involved (see the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp/rpd/cprpd1100m000" role="session">Items - Planning (cprpd1100m000)</GUIRef> session).</ListItem>
		</List>
		<Paragraph>A component CTP check is performed on the items <Link href="/baanerp/ti/glossary/glossary#BillOfMateri.ti" role="glossary">bill of material (BOM)</Link>, on its <Link href="/baanerp/ti/glossary/glossary#000081" role="glossary" Update="No">bill of critical materials (BCM)</Link>, or on its <Link href="/baanerp/cf/glossary/glossary#000020" role="glossary">generic BOM</Link> if the items customized. In all situation, you must select the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp/rpd/cprpd1100m000#cprpd100.cria" role="formfield">Critical in CTP</GUIRef> check box in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp/rpd/cprpd1100m000" role="session">Items - Planning (cprpd1100m000)</GUIRef> session of the component items that SSA ERP must take into account during a component CTP check, so that SSA ERP recognizes them as <Link href="/baanerp/cp/glossary/glossary#000039" role="glossary">critical in CTP</Link>.</Paragraph>
		<Paragraph>For each CTP-critical component, SSA ERP carries out a full CTP check. This check can consist of various types of ATP and CTP checks, based on the settings in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp/rpd/cprpd1100m000" role="session">Items - Planning (cprpd1100m000)</GUIRef> session. Note that this can result in a multilevel component check, in which SSA ERP also checks lower-level components.</Paragraph>

				<ListItem>D is a critical component of C</ListItem>

			<List><ListIntro>SSA ERP starts a CTP check for item A with a standard ATP check. If the ATP of item A is insufficient, SSA ERP carries out a full multilevel CTP check for item B. This means that the following data is checked:</ListIntro>

				<ListItem>The ATP of item C, plus the volume that can be produced based on the ATP of item D</ListItem>
