| Convert Master Plan to Planned Orders (cprmp2240m000) |  |
| Use this session to convert a plan item's production plan and/or purchase plan to planned orders. This is especially helpful, if you manually entered plan quantities and want to retain these plan quantities within the order horizon, or if the order horizon is set to zero, for example, if you use workload control. If you select the Order Status to Firm-Planned check box, the generated orders are immediately set to Firm Planned, which prevents ERP LN from removing these orders during a normal order planning run. To convert a plan to planned orders: Specify a scenario and a plan level. Select a range of plan items. Select a range of planners. Of the selected item range, ERP LN 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. Select the range of plan periods for which ERP LN must convert the production plan and/or purchase plan to planned orders. Select the appropriate check boxes. Click Continue. The Convert Master Plan to Planned Orders (cprmp2240m000) session is multi-site enabled. This means that you can use the Move in Multi-site check box and define a range of plan sites in the From field and the To field that ERP LN takes into account to support multi-site relations in planning. Note For each planned order that is generated, ERP LN uses the end date of the originating plan period as the requirement date. If you define more than one supplier, ERP LN splits purchase plan quantities over multiple suppliers in the usual way. 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, ERP LN reduces the order quantity for the next plan period accordingly. You do not need to convert production plan quantities and purchase plan quantities to planned orders before ERP LN can transfer them to the execution level. In the Transfer Planned Orders (cppat1210m000) session, you can also directly transfer production plans and purchase plans. Note ERP LN only moves purchase plans to planned orders, and not to purchase schedule quantities. See also Purchase schedules and Enterprise Planning.

Fields | Description
Scenario | Specify the scenario for which ERP LN must move item master plans to planned orders. If a scenario's plan status is Closed, you can no longer modify the data that is related to this scenario. Related topics Scenarios in Enterprise Planning
Plan Level | Define the plan level of the plan items of which ERP LN must move the purchase plan and/or the production plan to planned orders. Related topics Plan levels and product families
From Plan Item | Specify the first of a range of plan items of which ERP LN must move the purchase plan and/or the production plan to planned orders.
To Plan Item | Specify the last of a range of plan items of which ERP LN must move the purchase plan and/or the production plan to planned orders.
Planner | Specify the first of a range of planners that ERP LN must use as a criterion to select plan items of which it must move purchase plans or production plans to planned orders. Set the Planner selection range to maximum, if you do not want to constrain your item selection by selecting planners.
Planner | Specify the last of a range of planners that ERP LN must use as a criterion to select plan items of which it must move purchase plans or production plans to planned orders. Set the Planner selection range to maximum, if you do not want to constrain your item selection by selecting planners.
Period | Specify the first of a range of plan periods for which ERP LN must move production plans or purchase plans to planned orders.
Period | Specify the last of a range of plan periods for which ERP LN must move production plans or purchase plans to planned orders.
Generate Planned Production Orders | If this check box is selected, ERP LN converts the production plan for the selected plan periods to planned production orders.
Only in Order Horizon | If this check box is selected, ERP LN only generates planned orders within the order horizon. If this check box is cleared, ERP LN also generates planned orders beyond the order horizon. Related topics Horizons and time fences
Generate Planned Purchase Orders | If this check box is selected, ERP LN converts the purchase plan for the selected plan periods to planned purchase orders. Note ERP LN only moves the purchase plan to planned purchase orders, and not to purchase schedule quantities. Related topics Purchase schedules and Enterprise Planning.
Order Status to Firm-Planned | If this check box is selected, the planned orders that ERP LN automatically generated get the Firm Planned order status. This prevents ERP LN from removing these orders during a normal order planning run. If this check box is cleared, the generated planned orders get the Planned order status. Related topics Order planning, an overview
Generate Report | If this check box is selected, ERP LN creates a report that contains the signals and error messages that are generated during the process of generating planned orders.
Move in Multi-site | If this check box is selected, ERP LN also moves master plans to planned orders in each plan site that falls in the specified range of sites. The following conditions apply: This option is only available if the specified scenario is a central multisite scenario. ERP LN only takes into account the plan sites that are linked to the central multisite scenario involved. In each plan site involved, ERP LN only takes into account the master plans that exist in the plan site's local scenario. Note You can designate a scenario as a central multisite scenario in the Scenarios (cprpd4100m000) session. You can specify plan sites for a central multisite scenario (and a local scenario for each plan site) in the Scenario - Sites (cprpd4140m000) session. Related topics Multisite planning

Update Master Plans | If this check box is selected, ERP LN automatically updates the item master plan and the resource master plan after ERP LN moved the purchase plan and/or the production plan to planned orders.
