Dependend Demand, did not been supplied by other location

Question

Hello,
Would like to ask help on our issue in our product, we have a product on a location which has dep demand, and it was not been supplied by the other location which supposedly to supply it. Below are the details of the issue.
Plant on the Tlane;
From: 0001 to 0010
From: 0010 to 0020
we have dep demand on plant 0020 for 1200 PC, it must be supplied by plant 0010 but the stock on hand on it was 100, so in planing book in plant 0020 distreceipt (confirmed) 100 from 0010 and distreceipt (planned) 1100. so since plant 0010 was not enough to accomodate the depdemand of 0020, we expect that plant 0010 stock deficieny to supply the dep demand will order take stock on the next plant 0001 but in the planning book for plant 0010 no distreceipt (confirmed) and distreceipt (planned) that comes from plant 0001 for the dep demand. what are the possible root cause of this? and where should we look to.
Thanks

Hi,
1. 0001 plant is supposed to be supplying to plant 0010 some products.
This means, that procurement type of the product at location 0010 is X or F( as it is getting supplied from 0001).
Now you may first check if the souring hapening correctly from 0001 to 0010.
You may enter a forecast of say 500 for the product at lcoation 0010, and then run SNP heuristcs( or PPDS heuristcis) to see if the purchase requisition is created from 001 to 0010 or not. The Distr. receipt (planned) created must have source as 0001.
There may be blank source in the PR, and in that case you need to check IMG and set not to create PR if source not found,
2.  If demand at 0010 is getting covered from 0001 after running heuristics, then it means the supply is occuring.
     Therefore, in your scenario, you need to check if heuristics run is properly occuring at 0010 to create PR to source from 0001.
