Planning clusters and Planned itemsThe planning cluster concept allows you to perform integrated planning over one or multiple sites. A planning cluster represents one or more warehouses located near each other, typically at a particular location or the same country. You can define a plan item for each combination of planning cluster and item code, once the item is defined on company level. The plan item code includes these segments:
Therefore, the plan item represents the combination of item definition and site. When you use multiple clusters for one company, assigning all warehouses in a specific location to the same cluster is mandatory. When multiple planning clusters are used, all warehouses in a single location must be linked to a separate cluster for easier planning. The item groups, all inventory, and planned inventory transactions of all warehouses must be assigned to the same cluster for planning to be possible. To view the planned inventory transactions, use the Planned Inventory Transactions (whinp1500m000) session. Note
