Decision Rules
This tabbed region is available as follows:
- Unconstrained plans: It is never available.
- Constrained plans: It is available only if profile option MSO: Enable Decision Rules is Yes.
- Optimized plans (Optimization tabbed region, Optimize is selected): It is always available. For buy items in unconstrained plans and constrained plans in which this tabbed region is not available, you can duplicate the functionality of this region’s Use Alternate Sources parameter; set profile option MSC: Enable Enhanced Sourcing to Yes. You cannot duplicate this functionality for transfers from other organizations.
When this tabbed region is enabled, the planning engine does not consider the profile option MSC: Enable Enhanced Sourcing.
