Define a unit of measure group that converts pounds to kilograms in the basic data customizing and assign it to the material master on basic data view 1.

Add a conversion factor for converting pounds to kilograms on basic data view 1 in the material master.

Create a new material with a reference to the original material and assign the metric unit of measure to the new material master.

There is no need to take any action. In this scenario, the conversion of units of measurements is done automatically.

You can enter the strategy group 40 in the material master, but the requirement type is not changed automatically for existing requirements.

You must change the requirement type for planning strategy 10 to VSF in Customizing. The requirement type for all existing requirements is then changed by the next planning run.

You can change the strategy group from 10 to 40 for the existing production plan in the material master, and the requirement type for all requirements is changed automatically.

You can enter the strategy group 40 in the material master and change the present requirement for the product manually in the production plan.

If the ATP check determines non-availability, it then checks in the next step whether timely procurement or production is possible.

The ATP quantity is the available quantity that can be used to confirm incoming customer orders.

An ATP check creates fixed links between customer orders and their confirmed receipts.

The ATP check does not take stocks and receipts into account. It checks consumption of planned independent requirements.
