What can min-max planning policy profiles be assigned to?

Min-max planning policy profiles are created to manage a common set of min-max planning attributes for a group of items. These profiles are then assigned to an Item Class. When a new item is created and assigned to this item class, it automatically inherits the planning attributes defined in the policy profile. This mechanism simplifies the management of replenishment policies for large numbers of similar items by applying a consistent set of rules at the item class level, rather than individually for each item.

A. Item subinventory: Policy profiles are not assigned at this level. Specific min-max levels are defined for an item at the subinventory or organization level, but the policy profile itself is assigned higher up.
C. Item classification: This is a general term. In the context of Oracle SCM Cloud, Item Class is the specific and correct entity to which min-max planning policy profiles are assigned for attribute inheritance.

Using Inventory Management

Release 24B

Chapter: Manage Inventory Planning

Section: Min-Max Planning Policy Profiles.

Quote: "You can create min-max planning policy profiles to manage min-max planning attributes for a group of items that belong to a specific item class." This directly confirms that profiles are associated with an item class.

Using Product Master Data Management

Release 24B

Chapter: Manage Item Classes

Section: Item Class Templates and Formats.

Paraphrased Content: This section explains that templates

which include policy profiles

can be associated with an item class. When an item is assigned to that class

it inherits the attributes from the associated templates

streamlining item creation and ensuring data consistency. This establishes the functional link between a policy profile and an item class.
