ASCP Not Exploding The Components In a BOM - Looping in Source Data Found In MSCNSW - Snapshot Worker (Doc ID 1083422.1)

Users run unconstrained plan with many organizations. However they have run into a problem we believe is a data issue and not a code issue and we need help finding the problem. They have a 25 level bill of material for a particular item and this was planning just fine until this past Saturday, 20-MAR-2010, all the way down. Then at this point, about 10 levels down there's a Make subassembly that stopped planning at that level and the balance of the BOM for 15 levels below it does not explode/plan. All the other parts at the same level as the problem sub assembly plan as expected.

If they release a wip discrete job for the next higher assembly above the problem sub assembly, then they do get wip discrete job demand for the problem item and all the way down the BOM to satisfy that particular WIP job. However there are many more planned orders for the next assembly that have not yet been released.

We found in the MSCNSW - Memory Based Snapshot Worker log a huge loop that's probably 10 pages long and includes the problem subassembly in the looping. 

Please note that profile option MSC:Prevent Loops when pegging Non-Standard Jobs = Yes


STEPS:
1. Responsibility : Advanced supply chain planning
2. Responsibility : Supply chain planning  Workbench
3. One of the child item is not planned in parent items bill
