I love it when oracle support deems the solution to all your problems is simply upgrading to the latest CU patchset. Don't mind the fact that we just performed an upgrade from 11.5.10.2 to 12.1.1 less than two months ago, obviously our code level is extremely outaded already.
When we launch a plan from ASCP everything works fine except that the calculation for projected available balance isn't recognizing on hand inventory. Awesome! Because of this when we view the output of the plan in the workbench, we have a planned order for every item in our forecast for tomorrow regardless of whether there is sufficient onhand inventory to meet the next two months worth of demand or not.
We brought this up with support, we have Sev2 ticket open and they say they found the error in the code and have provided a one off patch to resolve the problem but.....we have to apply a 2.3GB Consolidated update patch as a pre-req for our little 28K one off.
I understand that its tough to provide fixes for all these different code levels, I guess I just assumed that by upgrading to 12.1.1 we would be on a pretty darn current version so we would be able to get fixes without having to go through a couple weeks of testing before we validate the affects of applying this huge CU3.
Anyway, hopefully by getting to CU3 and then applying this little one off we get the problem of unwanted planned orders resolved.
