Reviewing the CUM Information field set

On the Combined Plan tab, you can view the current status of the current shipped CUM, the current received CUM, and the in-transit quantity. These fields represent the latest CUM status of current plans. On the Shipment Schedule and Planning Schedule tabs, the same fields are part of the CUM Information field set, but have a different meaning. They show the CUM situation at the time of the release order import of the last single plan that changes the CUMs.

The CUM Information field set on the Combined Plan tab shows a reduced number of CUM fields.

To review the CUM Information field set:

  1. Select Release Management > View Plans.
  2. Click the Drill down button of an active plan.
  3. On the Combined Plan tab, expand the CUM Information field set. Review this information:
    Total Received CUM
    The total cumulative quantity of goods that is received and confirmed by the customer. The total cumulative received quantity is based on the contract duration, for example, several years.
    Total Shipped CUM
    The total shipped cumulative quantity of goods that is sent by the supplier. The total shipped cumulative quantity is based on the contract duration, for example, several years.
    Total Shipped CUM of LSP
    The total cumulative quantity of goods under consignment that is shipped to an external logistics service provider's (LSP) stock. See Current Shipped CUM of LSP. The field is only shown, if LSP processing is active for the contract line.
    Current Shipped CUM of LSP
    The current cumulative quantity of goods under consignment that is shipped to an external LSP's stock. CUMs under consignment are required to calculate the exact in-transit quantity of goods if the external LSP and the customer are separated. The customer is not yet informed about the quantity of goods that has been shipped to the external LSP and his goods receipt. Therefore, the shipped CUMs are increased when shipping the goods from the external LSP to the customer. Release Management processes a confirmed inventory consumption message. To check the inventory consumption, click View Shipments in the detail view of the View Plans, Manage Planning Schedules, or Manage Shipment Schedules pages. The field is only shown, if LSP processing is active for the contract line.
