Summary :
The SAP Note discusses issues related to the availability checks for components in subcontracting scenarios using SAP ERP system. Key issues include manual initiation of checks in purchase requisitions or orders, duplication of requirement data during creation of deliveries, and transfer postings that fail to consider existing reservations, leading to unnecessary additional requirements. Solutions proposed include manual starting of availability checks and temporary adjustments in purchase orders to reset confirmed quantities. Existing system functions, such cleansing in Release 4.5 using MRP areas, help segregate requirements but still have limitations in earlier versions like 4.0 where recommended workarounds involve adjusting delivery inspection scopes or requirement relevance.
