Unit 7: Rules-Based Availability Check in Global Available-to-Promise (Global ATP)

Available-to-Promise (ATP) Rules

Figure 81: ATP Rules

You have defined several different rules. The conditions under which rules are used to check
availability can be dependent on any criteria. These conditions are controlled on a
transaction-specific basis. Use the condition technique to control these conditions.
Different transactions can require different rules. For example, identical orders are placed
simultaneously by the same customer. However, one of the orders is a rush order, requiring a
different checking rule to the other order.
It may be necessary to apply more than one of the rules you previously defined. A flexible
sequence of rules provides the required result—to appropriately select a combination of
location and product.
