The purpose of this blog post is to explain how to upload PIR in Maintain PIR Fiori app using the upload through Excel/CSV feature.

Step 1- Access the Fiori app- Maintain PIR.

Step 2- Assign yourself with an area of responsibility (AOR). The AOR is a combination of plant and MRP controllers. You can maintain this through app settings of Maintain PIR or My area of responsibility -Fiori app.

Step 3 – Access maintain PIR Fiori app and filter your materials as per various selection criteria .

You have the option to filter by Materials/Active version/Last modified date etc. Compare it with MD63 if you plan to change PIR for a material. Observe “Reach” is based on the number of periods for which data exists. If no data is maintained, the reach attribute will show zero.

Step 4 – Click Edit(1) button. The (X) depends on how many materials you want to edit/create PIRs. In the above example, I have chosen 1 material; hence it is showing Edit(1)

Step 5– Click the Excel download button, as highlighted below.

You can see that , CSV file with name Material_Details gets downloaded. This is is your input format. Even though you have downloaded just for a material, you can add more materials in the input file.
