When testing requirements planning in plant 1000, you receive the error message displayed below. Large numbers of materials are already available in plant 1000. As a first step in solving the problem, you activate requirements planning in the Customizing for plant 1000.

What further tasks do you perform before you can use requirements planning in plant 1000 in SAP ECC?

A. Set up the planning file in Customizing and specify the plant parameters for plant 1000 in Customizing.

B. Set up the planning files in Customizing and specify the plant parameters for plant 1000 in Customizing of the MRP group.

C. Set up the planning file in Customizing and specify the plant parameters for plant 1000 in the MRP views in material master.

D. Activate requirements planning in Customizing for MRP areas in plant 1000 and specify the plant parameters for plant 1000 in the MRP views in material master.

What could be a consequence of the confirmation of an operation?

A. Settlement of the actual costs

B. Reduction of capacity requirements

C. Rescheduling of the production order

D. Update of the planned costs

A user you advise wishes to transfer variable process instructions for automated processing directly to certain work centers and machines in the production department (for example, feed speed, pressing pressure, dry temperature). The user also wishes to receive variable as-is messages (such as actual quantities, actual times) from these work centers and machines and to process these messages for feedback concerning production orders. Which of the following options would you recommend to implement these requirements?

A. Execution Steps (XSteps) and process messages

B. SAP Business Intelligence (BI)

C. Plant data collection (PP-PDC) interface

D. SAP Application Link Enabling (ALE)

In which of the following objects can you activate backflushing of components if you want to use this functionality during order confirmation? (Choose three.)

A. Work Center

B. Production Scheduling Profile

C. Material Master (Finished Product)

D. Routing

E. Material Master (Component)

An enterprise wants to use SAP ECC requirements planning together with the NETPL procedure (net change planning in the planning horizon). The planning horizon should be set equally for all materials by default. However, some materials need to have a different planning horizon.

Which procedure do you recommend for setting the planning horizon?

A. Set the planning horizon in the MRP groups in Customizing and store deviant entries in the material masters for the corresponding materials.

B. Set the planning horizon in the plant parameters in Customizing and store deviant entries in the material masters for corresponding materials.

C. Set the planning horizon in the MRP groups and assign deviant entries via the plant parameter settings in Customizing.

D. Set the planning horizon in the plant parameters in Customizing and assign deviant entries via the MRP groups for the corresponding materials.
