Besides the planning strategy, what order field must be set to use strategy 70 - Planning At Assembly Level?

To use strategy 70 - Planning At Assembly Level, it is essential to set the Individual/Collective Indicator field correctly. This field determines how the system processes the planning of various components and finished goods. When this indicator is configured to allow individual planning, it enables the system to consider each assembly’s unique requirements, supporting the planning process at the assembly level effectively.

The Individual/Collective Indicator field interacts closely with strategy 70 since this strategy relies on aggregating demand at the assembly level before breaking it down to component levels. This ensures that planning is synchronized throughout the production process, allowing for better management of inventory and component availability.

Correctly managing this field underpins the success of strategy 70 in ensuring that assemblies are planned in a way that reflects actual demand, optimizing production schedules and resource allocation.
