| # Aggregate Channel, Plans & Orders Use this session to aggregate planning data to item master plans or channel master plans, according to the aggregation relationships that you defined in the Aggregation Relationships (cprpd3110m000) session, or that LN generated in the Generate Aggregation Relationships (cprpd3211m000) session. Note You enter a range of plan items to which LN aggregates the data, which means that the plan items from which the data originates need not be in the plan item selection range. Usually, the aggregated data overwrites the current plans of the parent item. If you want to have the data added to the existing plans, set the Update Mode field to Add To. If you want to aggregate data from channel master plans to item master plans, without using the aggregation relationships that you defined in the Aggregation Relationships (cprpd3110m000) session, you can use the Aggregate Channel to Item Master Plan (cpdsp5210m000) session. You can use the following check boxes to select the type of planning data that you want aggregate: Production Plan Purchase Plan Demand Forecast Inventory Plan Extra Demand Note Enterprise Planning only aggregates the selected type(s) of planning data if you defined an aggregation relationship in the Aggregation Relationships (cprpd3110m000) session, and you also selected the check box for the corresponding type(s) of planning data in that session. Related topics Aggregated planning Aggregation of planning data Plan levels and product families Scenario Specify the scenario for which LN must aggregate planning data to item master plans or channel master plans. If the item master plans or the channel master plans to which LN aggregates the selected planning data belong to the same scenario as the sub-scenario from which the data are aggregated and, you must enter the same scenario in the Sub Scenario From and To fields. If not, you must define a different scenario in the Sub Scenario From and To fields. The status of the scenario in the Scenarios (cprpd4100m000) session must be Open. Planner Specify the first of a range of planners that LN must use as a criterion to select plan items for which the specified data must be aggregated to item master plans or channel master plans. Planner Specify the last of a range of planners that LN must use as a criterion to select plan items for which the specified data must be aggregated to item master plans or channel master plans. Plan Level Specify the first of the range of plan levels of the plan items to which LN must aggregate the planning data. Note The specified range of plan levels concerns the plan items to which LN aggregates the planning data, not the plan items from which the planning data originates. Plan Level Specify the last of the range of plan levels of the plan items to which LN must aggregate the planning data. Note The specified range of plan levels concerns the plan items to which LN aggregates the planning data, not the plan items from which the planning data originates. Period Specify the first of a range of plan periods for which LN must aggregate the planning data to the item master plans and the channel master plans. Period The end date of the specified plan period. Period Specify the last of a range of plan periods for which LN must aggregate the planning data to the item master plans and the channel master plans. Period The end date of the specified plan period. Channel Specify the first of a range of channels that LN must use as a criterion to select channeled plan items on a higher level, and for which you defined aggregate-to relations in the Aggregation Relationships (cprpd3110m000) session, or for which LN generated aggregation relationships in the Generate Aggregation Relationships (cprpd3211m000) session. Note For channel master plans, LN can only aggregate demand forecast and extra demand. Use the Aggregate Channel to Item Master Plan (cpdsp5210m000) session to directly aggregate planning data from channel master plans to item master plans. Channel Specify the last of a range of channels that LN must use as a criterion to select channeled plan items on a higher level, and for which you defined aggregate-to relations in the Aggregation Relationships (cprpd3110m000) session, or for which LN generated aggregation relationships in the Generate Aggregation Relationships (cprpd3211m000) session. Note For channel master plans, LN can only aggregate demand forecast and extra demand. Use the Aggregate Channel to Item Master Plan (cpdsp5210m000) session to directly aggregate planning data from channel master plans to item master plans. From Plan Item Specify the first of a range of plan items to which LN must aggregate the specified planning data. To Plan Item Specify the last of a range of plan items to which LN must aggregate the specified planning data. Company Specify the first of a range of companies from which Enterprise Planning must aggregate the selected planning data, which is the company of the sub-plan item. You can set up aggregation relationships between two different companies. Company Specify the last of a range of companies from which Enterprise Planning must aggregate the selected planning data, which is the company of the sub-plan item. You can set up aggregation relationships between two different companies. Sub Scenario Specify the first of a range of scenarios from which Enterprise Planning must aggregate the selected planning data. This field makes it possible to have aggregation relationships between multiple scenario’s and especially between multi-site and a local scenario this can be useful. Specify the scenario you also defined in the Scenario field, if the sub-scenario from which the data are aggregated belongs to the same scenario as the scenario of the item master plans or the channel master plans to which LN aggregates the selected planning data. Sub Scenario Specify the last of a range of scenarios from which Enterprise Planning must aggregate the selected planning data. This field makes it possible to have aggregation relationships between multiple scenario’s and especially between multi-site and a local scenario this can be useful. Specify the scenario you also defined in the Scenario field, if the sub-scenario from which the data are aggregated belongs to the same scenario as the scenario of the item master plans or the channel master plans to which LN aggregates the selected planning data. Update Mode The update mode determines whether LN does one of the following: Select Overwrite if LN must use the data from the originating plan item to overwrite the existing data in the master plan to which LN aggregates the data. Select Add To if LN must add the values of the originating plan item to values in the master plan to which LN aggregates the data. Production Plan If this check box is selected, LN aggregates the production plans of the child items to those of the parent items. Note LN carries out this aggregation only for those parent items for which the Production Plan field in the Items - Planning (cprpd1100m000) session is set to (Dis)aggregate or Always Update. Purchase Plan If this check box is selected, LN aggregates the purchase plans of the child items to those of the parent items. Note LN carries out this aggregation only for those parent items for which the Purchase Plan field in the Items - Planning (cprpd1100m000) session is set to (Dis)aggregate or Always Update. Demand Forecast If this check box is selected, LN aggregates the demand forecast of the child items to those of the parent items. Note LN carries out this aggregation only for those parent items for which the Demand Forecast field in the Items - Planning (cprpd1100m000) session is set to (Dis)aggregate or Always Update. Inventory Plan If this check box is selected, LN aggregates the inventory plans of the child items to the parent items. Note LN carries out this aggregation only for those parent items for which the Inventory Plan field in the Items - Planning (cprpd1100m000) session is set to (Dis)aggregate or Always Update. Extra Demand If this check box is selected, LN aggregates the extra demand of the child items to the parent items. Note LN carries out this aggregation only for those parent items for which the Demand Forecast field in the Items - Planning (cprpd1100m000) session is set to (Dis)aggregate or Always Update. Aggregate Starts the aggregation process. |
