Symptom
It is not clear how the requirement type of the sales order item is determined.
Environment
SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition
Resolution
The requirement type of the sales order item is determined following the below logic:
- Note down the item category of the sales order item.
- Check the corresponding entry of this item category in configuration activity 105120 - Determine Requirement Type by Item Category and MRP type.
- If the "Src" indicator is 1, the requirement type maintained here will be used.
- If the "Src" indicator is 0, go to step3.
*Note that only for some of the item categories, the "Src" indicator can be changed here.
- Check the material's planning strategy in the master data, under the MRP3 tab.
- Check in this Table of Planning Strategy Assignments page, the requirement type corresponding to the planning strategy will be used.
