View and analyze the interactive planning changes

Article • 6/18/2026 • 3 min read

The Interactive Planning Grid (PSPLNGRD) page lists all the planning changes done within a What-If session. You can set a scope and review the list of recommended planning changes related to your parts.

If you have set the new INI settingImmediatePersist4Purchasing in the [Plan] section of the SynchServ.ini file to Yes, the supply changes for purchased parts are immediately persisted and the updated transactions are immediately sent to the ERP data base. As the purchased parts do not have any pending changes, they are not shown in the Interactive Planning Grid (PSPLNGRD) page.

To analyze the interactive planning changes

  1. Open the Interactive Planning Grid (PSPLNGRD) page.

    • Select Planning > Interactive Planning Grid.

    Or

    • Search for PSPLNGRD or Interactive Planning Grid in the Navigation box and then select Interactive Planning Grid.

      The Interactive Planning Grid (PSPLNGRD) page appears.

  2. Specify the scope:

    • From the Planner list, select the planner to filter by the planner.

    • From the Product Class list, select the product class to filter by the product class.

    • In the Part No field, type the part number to view the interactive planning changes of a specific part.

    • In the Description field, type the part description to select parts that match the description.

    The parts that match the scoping parameters are listed in a grid in the Parts pane.

  3. In the Parts pane, select the part for which you want to modify the supplies.

  4. In the Supplies pane, edit the transactions in the grid :

    • In the Quantity column, change the quantity to be supplied.

    • In the Due Date column, change the due date.

    • In the Firm column, select the check box to firm the supply order.


    The Automatic Planning function cannot delete a firmed order nor can it modify its quantity.
    Based on the corresponding INI settings in the SynchServ.ini file, firming also disallows changing of the other supply due dates:

    - ModifyFirmedJobDueDates: Disallows the modification of the Job Due Date if set to “No”.

    - ModifyFirmedPPODueDates: Disallows the modification of the Planned Purchase Order Due Date if set to “No”.

    - ModifyFirmedISODueDates: Disallows the modification of the Supply Order Due Date if set to “No”.

    • In the Accept column, select the check box to approve the transaction.

  5. In the Scope pane, apply / persist the transactions:

    All non-accepted changes that have not been applied or persisted are reversed when you commit the changes done in the What-If session.

    • Click Apply to delete the transactions that were not accepted.

    After you clickApply, you can use the interactive planning tools such as the Material Availability window and the Supply/Demand by Part window. Select the part in the Parts pane and click Related on the grid toolbar to access these windows and review/analyze the supply and demand and projected inventory situation based on the decisions made.

    • Click Persist to delete the transactions that were not accepted and persist all the accepted transactions to the ERP database.

    The What-If session does not end and all changes that have been committed are visible in the ERP system.
