Open the 
Carry Out Action Msg. - Plan. window.
Creates supply orders according to the action messages that are proposed for the selected lines in the Planning Worksheet window.
When you run the batch job, the program carries out the proposed actions and changes the existing replenishment plan accordingly. This could result in any of the following situations (or a combination of them):
-
The program changes existing replenishment orders according to the action message proposal. This could be, for example, changing the quantity or rescheduling the due date.
-
The program deletes any existing replenishment orders that carry the action message Cancel.
Important Released production orders with no consumption or output posting may also be cancelled. To avoid this, set the Planning Flexibility field on the released production orders to None. -
The program converts planning lines with the action message New to new supply orders. This can be production, purchase, transfer, or assembly orders.
-
The program copies the planning line proposals for purchase and/or transfer orders to the requisition worksheet, where they can be processed further. This may be practical, for example, if one user is responsible for planning from the planning worksheet, and another user is responsible for planning from the requisition worksheet.
You can define what is included in the batch job by selecting the Accept Action Message field for the relevant lines. You can also remove the check mark if you want to. The program includes only those lines that have accepted action messages in the batch job.
The batch job deletes the lines in the planning worksheet after it has performed the action message. The other lines remain in the planning worksheet until they are either accepted at a later date or else deleted. You can also delete the lines manually.

Stop and Show First Error | Stops as soon as the batch job encounters an error. At the same time, a message is displayed with information about the (first) error. If an error exists, only the planning lines processed before the error was encountered will result in supply orders. If you do not select this field, then the batch job continues until it has completed, that is, errors will not interrupt the batch job. If one or more errors exist, the program will display a message after completion saying how many items are affected. |
