Overview of Interface
• The interface between CO-PA and LIS covers all the instances where data that exists in one application should be available in the other application. This allows the user to draw on the functions of both modules to achieve the maximum benefit.
• This interface is typically used to define a production plan iteratively.
• Quantities are entered into LIS/SOP where they are adjusted to fit capacities.
• The sales quantities are sent to CO-PA, where they are used as a basis for a revenue plan.
• Sales quantity plan is created in CO-PA from a revenue-oriented viewpoint.
• This cycle can be repeated as often as necessary.

Introduction to SOP
• Sales and Operations Planning Defined
• Sales and Operations Planning is the management process for developing a company game plan that ensures resource capability meets market demand. Representing "management's handle on the business", Sales and Operations Planning integrates all functions of the business through a "single set of numbers" from which all other detailed plans and schedules can be derived.
• Sales and operations planning – a flexible forecasting and planning tool that can set targets in sales, production, and other parts of the logistics chain. It is particularly well-suited to long and middle-term planning.

CO-PA Transfer Definition
• All SOP data is stored in LIS info-structures
• Transfer rules are defined to transfer planned quantity data from SOP info-structures to CO-PA• A separate process can be defined to transfer data from CO-PA
into SOP to complete the iterative process
• Some of the CO-PA transfer steps need to be defined as prerequisites for the LIS configuration and vice-verse.

CO-PA Configuration DetailsValuation Strategy
• Revenue value calculation• COPA defined costing sheet (price determination)• Integration with SD pricing procedure
• Same access sequence used in price determination in the billing process
• Can only be used for planned values, not actuals• Fields used in the access sequences MUST be defined as
characteristics in your operating concern for the integration to be successful
![Page 25: Integrated Copa Planning Leveraging Your Sop Forecast 3259](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061302/54e8480e4a7959d76d8b4cc9/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
CO-PA Configuration DetailsValuation Strategy

CO-PA Configuration
• Material Costing• Direct material costs can be determined using the stored material
cost estimate from the material master• As defined from your standard cost setting process• Can leverage the same valuation strategy used in transferring actual
cost component details to CO-PA during the billing process.
• Configuration of planning “costing key”
![Page 29: Integrated Copa Planning Leveraging Your Sop Forecast 3259](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061302/54e8480e4a7959d76d8b4cc9/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)

Planning Framework Tips
• Characteristics defined in the planning framework must be consistent between each of the steps• CO-PA planning level must include the key characteristics used in
the planning process• The planning layout defined for
the planning method must have consistent characteristics

Execution of Integrated Planning
• Due to integrated nature of this process, the sales and operations departments will work closely with the finance department during this planning process.
![Page 39: Integrated Copa Planning Leveraging Your Sop Forecast 3259](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061302/54e8480e4a7959d76d8b4cc9/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Execution of Integrated Planning
• 3 step process will be demonstrated1. Enter SOP Unit Plans
2. Transfer SOP Plan Data to COPA
3. Run CO-PA valuation routine
• The integrated planning process results in two planning documents recorded in CO-PA
• One record for quantity
• One record for values
• If quantity changes are recorded in SOP unit planning, the process is repeated and only changed quantity & valuation is recorded in COPA
• Can perform “what if” analysis by using planning simulation
![Page 40: Integrated Copa Planning Leveraging Your Sop Forecast 3259](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061302/54e8480e4a7959d76d8b4cc9/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Execution of Integrated Planning Step 1: Enter SOP Unit Plans
• Flexible planning is used – MC93/MC94• Ensure planning hierarchy is completely defined• Monthly quantities are entered by customer / material
![Page 41: Integrated Copa Planning Leveraging Your Sop Forecast 3259](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061302/54e8480e4a7959d76d8b4cc9/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Execution of Integrated Planning Step 2: Transfer SOP Plan data to CO-PA
• Use mass processing functionality in flexible planning• Similar to transferring data to demand management (MRP)
• Create and schedule the transfer job• MC8D / MC8E / MC8G
• Monitor transfer results in post processing• MC8J
Key Point:
Check Status & monitor messages
![Page 42: Integrated Copa Planning Leveraging Your Sop Forecast 3259](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061302/54e8480e4a7959d76d8b4cc9/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Execution of Integrated PlanningStep 2: Transfer SOP Plan data to CO-PA
Key Point:
Aggregation level must be consistent with the characteristic transfer rules
• Mass Processing Settings
![Page 43: Integrated Copa Planning Leveraging Your Sop Forecast 3259](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061302/54e8480e4a7959d76d8b4cc9/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Execution of Integrated PlanningResults transferred to CO-PA
• View results of planning data in CO-PA• Only incremental quantities are transferred with this step
![Page 44: Integrated Copa Planning Leveraging Your Sop Forecast 3259](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061302/54e8480e4a7959d76d8b4cc9/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Execution of Integrated PlanningStep 3: Run CO-PA Valuation Routine
• Pre-Requisites for running the valuation routine• SD Pricing maintenance for planning period
• Valuation reads valid pricing data from SD pricing tables
• Current material cost standards• Cost portion of planning data is driven from saved material cost
estimates.
![Page 45: Integrated Copa Planning Leveraging Your Sop Forecast 3259](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061302/54e8480e4a7959d76d8b4cc9/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Execution of Integrated PlanningStep 3: Run CO-PA Valuation Routine
• A key Step to be executed in the planning framework• KEPM – CO-PA Planning Framework• Step found in the planning method
![Page 46: Integrated Copa Planning Leveraging Your Sop Forecast 3259](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061302/54e8480e4a7959d76d8b4cc9/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Execution of Integrated PlanningStep 3: Run CO-PA Valuation Routine
• Analyze planning results• A second plan document is created that includes the revenue
(pricing) value and the Cost of materials value
![Page 47: Integrated Copa Planning Leveraging Your Sop Forecast 3259](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061302/54e8480e4a7959d76d8b4cc9/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Execution of Integrated PlanningResults transferred to CO-PA – Additional Quantity
• Quantity has been updated in SOP
• Recorded results in CO-PA
Additional 250 units entered.
New total = 1250

Testing of Valuation in CO-PAValuation Simulation
• Testing & Simulation can be performed to validate CO-PA plan definition settings
• Transaction code KE21S – Simulate Valuation
• Enter Qty and characteristics found in data transfer
![Page 49: Integrated Copa Planning Leveraging Your Sop Forecast 3259](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061302/54e8480e4a7959d76d8b4cc9/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
