Cost Peg Transfers in Enterprise Planning

Enterprise Planning has two types of cost peg transfers:

  • Manual cost peg transfer

    Orders for this type of transfer are retrieved from Warehousing and are considered firm planned demand. These orders cannot be created, updated, or deleted in order planning.

    Displayed in the Item Order Plan (cprrp0520m000) session.

  • Planned cost peg transfer

    Orders created based on the available excess on hand and excess on order.

    Displayed in the Item Order Plan (cprrp0520m000) session. The transfer out of a project peg is shown as a demand transaction and the transfer into a project peg is shown as a supply transaction.

    Planned cost peg transfers can also be viewed in the Planned Cost Peg Transfers (cprrp0130m000) session, which shows detailed information about the transfer.

Cost peg transfers in order planning

Order planning takes both manual cost peg transfers and planning cost peg transfers into account. The manual cost peg transfers are treated as demand orders and the excess on hand and excess on order are used to supply these transfers. In case of lack of excess on hand or on order, a cancel exception message is logged.

Planned cost peg transfers are created, updated, or deleted during the demand/supply matching of the order planning run. The planned cost peg transfers are maintained by the order planning process and cannot be manually changed.

Creating planned cost peg transfers

When excess on hand or excess on order is available that can be assigned to another cost peg, a planned cost peg transfer is created to show the transfer of the cost peg. Transfer rules that apply to the excess are checked in the Cost Peg Transfer Rules (tcpeg1100m000) session.

Updating and deleting planned cost peg transfers

Planned cost peg transfers with the status Planned cannot be changed. Before the planning of a plan item starts, all planned cost peg transfers with the status Planned are deleted.

Planned cost peg transfers with the statuses Firm Planned and Confirmed cannot be changed by order planning. They follow the same procedure as manual cost peg transfers.

The default status of a cost peg transfer is Planned. The statuses Firm Planned and Confirmed are maintained by the user.

Cost peg transfer exception messages

Cancellation exception messages are logged for cost peg transfers. These exception messages can be automatically processed in the Update Exception Messages (cprao1210m000) session.

Temporary cost peg transfers

Inventory can physically be transferred between two projects. If the Borrow/Loan and Payback check box is selected in the Project Pegging Parameters (tcpeg0100m000) session, there is no cost or billing impact.

The borrow/loan functionality allows the physical transfer of materials between projects for a limited amount of time. The borrowing projects remain responsible for any additional costs incurred during the time the loan is active.

Selecting the Aging check box allows you to set specific time limits for the return of the borrowed inventory. If the loaned inventory cannot be replenished on time by the borrowing project, the loan is converted into a permanent transfer.
