"ATP Categories" tab on the  CTM:Global Customizing Settings screen

Hi All,
I want to understand the usage of the "ATP Categories" tab on the  CTM:Global Customizing Settings screen (/SAPAPO/CTMCUST).
Where do we make use of the settings on this screen for the CTM run. The screen talks about the "Subsititute categories for PP/DS with" , "Planning are for SNP categories", "Subsitute categories for SNP with", etc. Pls elaborate the functionalities of these parameters. Any document on the same will be highly appreciated.

Based on my understanding the ATP tab does the equivalent of key figure function in a planning book for Heuristics. It helps CTM identify the various types of demand and receipt categories - to give a differential treatment to the same. It gives ability to also leverage many business-rule specific features/functionalities like substitution.CTM can be run for PPDS detailed planning and rought cut bucket planning for SNP. The planning functions of PPDS and SNP thus require different ATP categories for being able to discriminate between the two.

  • CTM - Global customizing settings - Best practices

    Colleagues
    We are in the process of optimizing the performance of our CTM engine. We are using SAP recommended standard settings for live cache accesses. Currently we are operating in asynchronous mode with packet size of 1000.
    Here are other settings we have
    Packet size for creating orders = 500
    Packet size for creating pegging relationships = 5000
    Packet sie for order selection = 500
    Please advice if you have experimented with any other settings for improved performance of CTM engine.
    Also, if you can provide any other suggestions that can help in improving performance of CTM, it would be appreciated.
    REgards,
    Pavan

    Hi pavan,
    The setting for creating orders and creating pegging relationships
    is found Ok as per Standard.
    But in our engagement, we used 50 for order selection which gave
    good results.  The value indicates for how many location products a
    liveCache request can be started at one time. The default value is
    50 location products as per SAP recommendation.

  • My Apple tv is stuck on the home sharing and settings screen

    For some reason my apple tv is stuck on the home sharing and settings screen. Ive already unplugged it and let it reset but its not even giving me the option to go to the home scene..HELP!!?

    That is the main menu, however you are not properly connected to the network so that is why the other apps are not appearing.
    Make sure DNS is set to auto (settings - general - network)
    Check that location is set correctly via settings
    If on wifi try ethernet
    Make sure router is up to date and has port 123 open (refer to manual if unsure)

  • Where are the Optimize PDF custom settings in Acrobat Standard XI?

    I can't seem to find where to adjust the settings of the PDF Optimizer (reduce file size) in Acrobat XI.  Can anyone point me in the right direction?  The image below shows where they were in version X.

    That screen shot, I believe, is of Acrobat Pro. Acrobat Standard does not have custom settings, just the single fixed and unknown "reduce file size" setting.

  • What is the differance betn CUSTOMIZING & SETTINGS

    hi folks ,
    is thr any differance betn CUSTOMIZING & SETTINGS ?
    and is thr any full form of SPRO ?
    regards

    Dear Ajay,
    SPRO - SAP Project Reference Object. It is also called as IMG (Implementation Guide).
    Re: sap general
    The difference between cutomizing and configuration is:
    - CONFIGURATION: we will configure the system to meet the needs of your business by using the existing data.
    - CUSTOMIZING: we will customise or adapt the system to your business requirements, which is the process of mapping SAP to your business process.
    Configuration vs. Customization
    When considering enterprise software of any type, it is important to understand the difference between configuration and customization.The crux of the difference is complexity. Configuration uses the inherent flexibility of the enterprise software to add fields, change field names,modify drop-down lists, or add buttons. Configurations are made using powerful built-in tool sets. Customization involves code changes to create functionality that is not available through configuration. Customization can be costly and can complicate future upgrades to the software because the code changes may not easily migrate to the new version.Wherever possible, governments should avoid customization by using configuration to meet their goals.Governments also should understand their vendor's particular terminology with regard to this issue since words like "modifications" or "extensions" often mean different things to different vendors.
    Hope this will help.
    Regards,
    Naveen.

  • I cannot get Options to accept change to 'use custom settings in history', it only accepts other 2 choices.

    I can't log in to sites that require cookies saved. I followed instructions to set tools: options to use custom history option. If I hit 'okay', it doesn't keep it set to this choice. If I set it to 'Remember history' or 'Never remember history', it keeps those choices. I started in Safe Mode with add-ons disabled and nothing changed. Please help, I don't want to use Internet Explorer.

    Firefox shows the "(Never) Remember history" setting if all the history and cookie setting are the default.
    Make at least one change to the default setting if you want "Use custom settings for history" to stay selected.
    Otherwise Firefox will revert to "(Never) Remember history" if you return to the Privacy tab.
    The choice "Use custom settings for history" will stay selected as long as not all settings are the default to make you aware that you made changes.
    You enter Private Browsing mode if you select: Tools > Options > Privacy > History: Firefox will: "Never Remember History"<br />
    In Private Browsing mode some menu items are disabled (grayed) and features like visited links are disabled and not showing.<br />

  • Figuring out "Relevant" ATP Categories

    Hi,
    If I want to "pick" the right/relevant ATP categories for a new check control in a already productive system (in which I havent worked hands on), in which direction should I start thinking / exploring to narrow down on the correct ATP categories. A couple of them are evident by cateory description and its relevant MRP element and type (Stock, receipts, requirement)
    e.g. say the context is to have "Subcontrator Orders" in the check control. Now there are 2 evident ATP categories on this BA (requirements)  and BB (receipts).. both with exactly the same text and they both correspond to same MRP element BB.
    - First I am not sure which one of these would make "sense" to be included in the check control.
    -Second I am not sure if there are any additional ATP categories that should be included to lend sense.
    If you could guide. I know its an open ended question but just wanted to know the thought process around this. 
    Regards,
    Loknath

    Thanks Mohan,
    I have to read whole of ECC Logistics to figure all about ATP categories..
    The more specific question is below
    The need is to create a new check control with some additional ATP categories in which one of the category is
    "Stock Transfer Reservation" (Category BC). There already exists a category "Order reservation withdrawable  (category AV) along with several other categories
    Now category BC corresponds to MRP element UL and the invoking tcodes are are MB22/MB23 (change/display reservation)
    But AV corresponds to MRP element AR and the invoking tcode is CO03 (production order display ! )
    Questions:
    - Why is a reservation document referring a production order.
    - Do I need to activate the integration model for Manual Reservations to CIF stock transfer reservations given that Order reservations are CIF'd to APO with basic material model. I could have tested but now I dont know how to create a stock transfer reservation.. It is just a reservation. Isnt it ? or am I missing anything.
    Please give some directions.
    Regards,
    Loknath

  • How do I get the search here tab off the top of my screen?

    All of the sudden I have a new tab at the top of my Firefox screen for searching. It says "search here" with a colorful little pinwheel. There is no where I can find to take this whole thing off. I've tried uninstalling it on my computer, but it still shows up. I want to have it off completely!

    See image below. If that is the item, follow these instructions.
    Exit from Firefox, then try locating and removing from your installed programs in Windows Control Panel (see article below for instructions to get there depending on your version of Windows). Look for and remove '''''"Default Tab (version #)"'''''

  • SOAMANAGER "Global System Settings" link not found

    Dear Sirs,
    We are trying to integrate SRM 7.01 with ECC 6.0 EhP 6 using Web Services without using PI.
    We have come accross blog "Transfer of central contract from SRM to ECC using Web Services without PI"
    by Naveen Rajan.
    However we cannot find the link "Global System Settings". Is there any certain configuration we have missed?
    Could it be the SLD (taken from the business system name) ?
    Where do we set this up?
    Thank you in advance for your help.
    Marios.

    Hi Bala,
    Are you putting anything in the Global SNP Setting Profile field. If Yes, you have to define the profile in <b><i>SNP Customizing under Maintain Global SNP Settings</i></b>. After defining, anyone of these is to be activated.

  • ARD 3 : Custom "Lock Screen Picture" not functional?

    It seems as though things have changed with the way that the Lock Screen Picture feature is handled from ARD 2, whereas now the only working solution I have found is to swap out the Lock.jpg file located in "/System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/AppleVNCServer.bundle/Contents/S upport/LockScreen.app/Contents/Resources".
    Obviously this is not an elegant solution, but at the present it seems to be the only approach I have found that works.
    Has anyone been able to get the documented approach to work? Is there a different way that is easier to deploy?

    As per the subject of this post, that technique does not seem to work now.
    I've attempted the following:
    - a custom "Lock Screen Picture" w/ and w/o an extension in /Library/Preferences
    - w/ Quicktime & Preview as the associated applications
    - a copy of the original Lock.jpg from the package as the file
    None of these things work, whereas the approach I mention earlier does.
    I guess I should have reiterated in the body of my message that the solution you point out is not working (at least for me).

    FYI - it is still page 139 in the final manual, but now part of Chapter 8.

  • How to assigned the ATP categories to supply categories

    Hello Everybody:
    I am trying to creat a supply categorization profile in Multilevel Supply and Demand Matching, I chose CATEGORIZATION USING ATP CATEGORIES in the categorization procedure. When I tried to save it, I am getting a warning with the following diagnosis:
    You have selected the categorization procedure Categorization via ATP Categories , but not assigned ATP categories to supply categories.
    How do I assign ATP categories to supply categories?
    Your input is indeed appreciated.
    Thank you
    Mono

    HI Mono,
    Supply Categorization means grouping  all receipts(Production/Purchase) and stocks that are available for CTM planning before each planning run.With this CTM search strategy,determine the sequence in which the individual supply categories for the fulfilment of demands are to be consumed .
    You can create Supply Categories in Tranaction /n/sapapo/supcat
    Menu Path is Multilevel Supply & Demand Matching -->Environment -->Current Settings -->Supply Categories
