Copying Master Plan to Scenario

In addition to copying the various plan values, you can also modify these values by a certain percentage. For example, you can use this to analyze what happens if the demand is 10% higher and the inventory plan is 20% lower.

Note

LN only takes those items into account for which the Maintain Master Plans check box in the Items - Planning (cprpd1100m000) session is selected.

To copy plan data between scenarios:

  1. A master plan must already exist in the target scenario for each plan item and plan period involved. You can check this in the Item Master Plan (cprmp2101m000) session. If the master plans do not exist yet, you must first create them in the Initialize, Roll, and Update Scenario (cprpd4200m000) session.
  2. Specify the source scenario.
  3. Specify the plan level of the items for which the plan data must be copied. You can only copy data for one plan level at a time.
  4. You can specify a planner (optional). If you do so, LN only considers items that belong to this planner.
  5. Select a range of plan items.
  6. You can specify a range of channels (optional). If you do not specify such a range, LN will not copy (demand plan) data for channels.
  7. Select a range of plan periods for which you want to copy plan data.
  8. Enter a percentage for each type of plan that you want to copy.
  9. Specify the target scenario.
  10. Select the update mode ( Overwrite or Add To.
  11. Optionally, select the Pro Rate check box.
  12. Click Copy.
Note

The source scenario and the target scenario do not need to have identical plan period definitions. If necessary, LN redistributes the source plan period quantities over the target plan periods.
