| | Convert Planned and Scheduled Supply to Confirmed Supply (cpvmi1210m000)To define confirmed supply To define the confirmed supply manually, use the Item Customer Plan (cpvmi0520m000) session. To generate confirmed supply based on planned orders and
scheduled receipts, use this session. After LN generates confirmed supply, you can view and optionally modify the
confirmed supply in the Confirmed Supply to Customer (cpvmi0108m000) session, before sending the infomation to the
customer. Note If the confirmed supply has been approved, you can no longer
modify the confirmed supply of the current revision. After you receive the next forecast revision
from your customer, you can also create a new version of the confirmed supply. Scenario The identification of an overall planning solution. Each scenario represents one overall planning solution, and
involves particular settings for the planning of items and resources. You can
use scenarios to analyze and compare various planning options and to find the
best planning solution. For example, you can vary demand forecasts or sourcing
strategies. One of the scenarios is the actual scenario, which
corresponds with the actual planning situation. You can only transfer planned
orders and production plans from the actual scenario to the execution level of LN. From Plan Item An item with the order system Planned. The production, distribution, or purchase of these items is
planned in Enterprise Planning based on the forecast or the actual demand. You can plan these items by means of the following: - Master-based planning, which is similar to master production
scheduling techniques.
- Order-based planning, which is similar to
material-requirements planning techniques.
- A combination of master-based planning and order-based
planning.
Plan items can be one of the following: - An actual manufactured or purchased item.
- A product family.
- A basic model, that is, a defined product variant of a
generic item.
A group of similar plan items or families is called a product
family. The items are aggregated to give a more general plan than the one
devised for individual items. A code displayed by the item code's cluster
segment shows that the plan item is a clustered item that is used for
distribution planning. Planner ID The planner that is entered for the item in the Planner field of the Items - Planning (cprpd1100m000) session. Default Warehouse The warehouse that is entered for the item in the Default Warehouse field of the Items - Planning (cprpd1100m000) session. Simulation If this check box is selected, the session does not
actually generate confirmed supply, but only prints the requested reports. Replan Forward If this check box is selected, and the replenishment
method is based on Inventory Level and the actual stock drops below the agreed minimum inventory
level, the session generates a planned order for which the Order Release field is set to To be released. Update Pegging Forecast - Confirmed Supply If this check box is selected, the session creates and updates soft pegs to link the generated confirmed supply to the forecast that caused the demand. Generate Only Confirmed Supply Type 'Stock' If this check box is selected, only generates confirmed
supply of confirmed supply type Stock. This setting can be useful if you manually define
the confirmed supply, because you cannot manually enter confirmed supply of
confirmed supply type Stock. Print Differences If this check box is selected, the session reports the
differences between the new values and the previous values of the confirmed
supply. If no differences are found, no report is printed. Print Results If this check box is selected, the session reports the
calculated confirmed supply. | |
