System Response

If you have specified in the planning version that the system can only
create a planned order with a source of supply, the system does not
create a planned order.
If you have specified in the planning version that the system can
create a planned order even without a source of supply, the system
creates a planned order.

supply, the following conditions must be fulfilled:
A source of supply exists for products produced in-house, that is,
a production data structure or an active plan.

planning version exists.
