End Planning Run After Order Selection - issue not clearing down all plans

Question

Hi,
We are using the CTM Profile with "End Planning Run After Order Selection" ticked in the basic settings tab in order to clear down previous CTM runs. So we have a CTM deletion profile.
The issue is that it requires more than one execution to clear down the Planned Orders / Purchase Requisitions. You execute the Deletion CTM Profile once and it will clear down some of the Purchase Requisitions and Planned Orders and leave some still in place. You then have to execute the deletion CTM profile one or two more times in order to delete the remaining Planned Orders / Purchase Requisitions.
This is clearly not realiable for a batch process to clear down plans. Has anyone else experienced this and does anyone have a solution. The solution cannot be based on RLCDELETE or /SAPAPO/DELETE_PP_ORDER

Answer 1

Hi,
Can you check your planning mode and deletion mode combination defined in the ctm profile.
Prerequisties for deleting the orders:
u2022 They are within the planning and deletion periods
u2022 They do not have pegging relationships with demands outside of the planning period
They lie outside of the production horizon, stock transfer horizon and the planned delivery time
In addition, all location products of an order must be included in the Master Data Selection so that CTM can
delete the order. Also, CTM cannot delete any manually fixed orders.
If you have selected the SNP Order order type in the CTM profile, CTM cannot delete any PP/DS orders. This
restriction is also valid the other way round for the PP/DS Order order type. If you select this order type, CTM also
deletes SNP orders.
