Multicompany Enterprise Planning
To consolidate local demand and supply data to a central company level, aggregation relationships
must be defined in the Aggregation Relationships (cprpd3110m000) session. The aggregation
relationship makes explicit between which items/companies the data must be aggregated. In addition
to the aggregating data, you can also use the aggregation relationships for disaggregation of demand
and supply data.
Note: The planning percentage in the aggregation relationship is used for aggregation, as well as for
disaggregation.
Aggregation
Using aggregation, you can update the central multisite plan with this local planning data:
• Production plan, purchase plan
• Planned production orders, purchase orders, and distribution orders
• Inventory plan
• Demand forecast
• Extra demand
The update of the central plan is performed when you run the Aggregate Channel, Plans & Orders
(cprmp2250m000) session.
In the Aggregate Channel, Plans & Orders (cprmp2250m000) session, you can select an update mode,
which can be Overwrite or Add To. If you select Overwrite, the original values in the target fields will
be deleted. Subsequently, the content of the origin fields, which is the scenario from which you aggregate,
fills the target fields of the scenario to which you aggregate.
Note: If you select Add To, the fields of origin will be added to the original value of the target fields.
The aggregation relations are scenario independent, while the aggregation/ disaggregation is performed
by scenario. At the same time, the central multisite scenario cannot have the same scenario code as
