Answer / ash1640

1. You can create the centrally contract (cross-plant) where
you can maintain different pricing conditions for each and
every plant
2. You have to create the Release Order with reference to
Outline Agreement.
3. No detailed delivery schedule can be made in the Release
Order.
4. No Release documentation is created.
5. Only time-dependent conditions can be created.
6. Some Item Category 'M' and 'W' can be used.
With regard to Scheduling Agreement:
1. The Plant Location must be entered in the Scheduling
Agreement.
2. We do not have to create any other purchasing document
except for delivery schedule line via Transaction ME38 or
MRP running (with the appropriate setting of Source List).
3. Delivery Schedule line items are created subject to your
specific requirement.
4. Can create both Scheduling Agreement with and without
Release Documentation (subject to the Document Type LP or
LPA) with the selection of either FRC or JIT delivery schedule.
5. Either time-dependent or time-independent conditions can
be created subject to the customizing in the Document Type
of the Scheduling Agreement.
6. Item Category 'M' and 'W' can not be used.
