Pegging signals

Pegging signals are generated as part of an order simulation or separately in the Generate Pegging Relations (cprrp0240m000) session.

Pegging signals are based upon pegging relations.

A required supply, for example, a sales order or a production-order requirement, is not available on stock. The required supply has not yet been delivered by, for example, a particular purchase order. This situation is a potential problem, because you have no guarantee that the required items will be available on time.

The current order requires a material that is supplied by another order. In this situation, LN also gives a Pegging: Potential Stock Shortage signal for the item that the current order requires (as material).

A required supply, for example, a sales order or a production-order requirement, still has to come from a planned order. You have not yet transferred the planned order to an actual production order or actual purchase order.

The current order requires a material that is supplied by another planned order. In this situation, LN also gives a Pegging: No Projected Stock signal for the item that the current order requires.

A required supply is not pegged at all.

This situation is serious, because even if you execute all existing planned orders on time, this requirement is not filled. You must create an additional order to meet the supply, or take other actions.

The current order requires a material that is not in stock and not supplied by another planned order. In this situation, LN also gives a Pegging: No Planned Stock signal for the item that the current order requires.

This situation is a serious, because you will not be able to fill the current requirement, unless you order additional material, or take other actions.

The current order has a planned delivery date that is in the past. According to the system, the delivery is supposed to have been made already.

If you enter a tolerance in the Tolerance (Days) field in the Signal Types - by Planner (cprao1110m000) session, LN only logs signals that exceed the tolerance. For example, if the tolerance is 3, you only see supply that is more than 3 days in the past.

The current order requires a material that is supposed to have been delivered in the past. In this situation, LN also gives a Pegging: Supply in the Past signal for the item that the current order requires.

If you enter a tolerance in the Tolerance (Days) field in the Signal Types - by Planner (cprao1110m000) session, LN only logs signals that exceed the tolerance. For example, if the tolerance is 3, you only see supply that is more than 3 days in the past.

The supply is expected after the demand. In other words, the current order has a planned delivery date that is later than the moment that the item is required. If you do not shift the supply order to an earlier date, the required item will not be supplied in time.

If you enter a tolerance in the Tolerance (Days) field in the Signal Types - by Planner (cprao1110m000) session, LN only logs signals that exceed the tolerance. For example, if the tolerance is 3, you only see supply that is more than 3 days later than the demand.

The current order requires a material that is planned to be delivered after you require the item. In this situation, LN also gives a Pegging: Supply in the Past signal for the item that the current order requires.

If you want the system to log less of these signals, you can define a tolerance in days.

The supply is expected before the item is required. In other words, the current order has a planned delivery date that is earlier than the moment that the item is required. The required item must be stored for some time, before the item is actually used.

In general, this situation is not serious, but the situation can lead to undesirably high inventory levels in your warehouse. To resolve this situation, you can shift this order to a later date.

If you enter a tolerance in the Tolerance (Days) field in the Signal Types - by Planner (cprao1110m000) session, LN only logs signals that exceed the tolerance. For example, if the tolerance is three, you only see supply that is more than three days earlier than the demand.

The current order requires a material that is planned to be delivered before you require the item. In this situation, LN also gives a Pegging: Supply is too early signal for the item that the current order requires.

If you want the system to log fewer of these signals, you can define a tolerance in days.
