Configure Exception Sets

Use the Configure Exception Sets page to create, modify, or copy an exception set.

The set of exceptions and their scope that's calculated by the plan is configured on the Create or Edit Exception Set page. When creating an exception set, you must first specify the exceptions to include in the set, which can include user-defined exceptions. User-defined exceptions aren't available in Planning Central.

The exception set also enables you to restrict the generation of exceptions for specific organizations, categories, suppliers, and customers. You can then point to the exception set on the Plan Options page for a plan.

When you create a constrained supply plan in Supply Planning, the Exception Set plan option defaults to the Constrained Supply Planning Default exception set.

Use the following steps to configure exception sets:

  1. In a Supply Chain Planning work area, click the Tasks panel drawer and click Configure Exception Sets.

  2. On the Configure Exception Sets page, select an existing exception set. Next, click Actions and select Duplicate.

  3. In the Create Exception Sets dialog box:

    1. Expand the group of exceptions in the Available Exceptions section. For example, expand Supply Planning Exceptions.

    2. Select the exception from the Available Exceptions section and move it to the Selected Exceptions section.

  4. Click Save and Close to return to your plan.

Note:

To generate exceptions, you must include the exception set in the plan options for your plan.
