SAP Note 217210 - Mapping of alternative sequences in APO System

Component : Production Process Model -

Solution : https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/217210 (SAP Service marketplace login required)

Summary :
This SAP note provides guidance on mapping alternative sequence operations as alternative modes in APO during the PPM transfer. It includes sample source code for a user exit that facilitates this mapping manually in APO or automatically upon deinstallation of the user exit. Restrictions are outlined, such as the maximum number of alternative sequences (15), the necessity for identical operations across sequences, and specific conditions on operation segments and measuring units. The note emphasizes using alternative modes solely for capacity reasons and advises maintaining sequence integrity in R/3 for other considerations.
