Item Order Plan (cprrp0520m000)

Use this session to get a time-phased overview of your order planning, which lists overview values for demand and forecast on the one hand, and scheduled receipts (actual orders) and planned supply (planned orders) on the other. Select the Simulate field to change the above values and see what the results are for the projected inventory.

The order quantities of the orders that fall in one period are added up. Click the Find button to choose one of a set of predefined period lengths. Instead of selecting a time period, you can also choose to display a detailed overview in which each order is listed separately.

You can select Change Company on the appropriate menu, to zoom to the Change Company (cpcom1200s000) session. Here you can switch to a different logistical company.

Note
  • The Group commands are disabled in this session, because the displayed data is not read directly from a database, but is computed (aggregated) online. If you want to view other data, click Find.
  • If you have started this session by zooming, you can only find and select a record.
Note

The horizon of the item order plan is equal to the planning horizon, because you must be able to see an order when it is moved from the item master plan to a planned order before you release it.

If you move the production plan or the purchase plan to planned orders with the Convert Master Plan to Planned Orders (cprmp2240m000) session, the resulting orders have the order type Production Plan and Purchase Plan in the Item Order Plan (cprrp0520m000) session.

Scenario
This code indicates that LN displays the item order plan for the actual scenario.
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.

Time Fence
The date to which the time fence extends.

You can specify the time fence in the Items - Planning (cprpd1100m000) session.

Forecast Time Fence
The date to which the forecast time fence extends.

You can specify the forecast time fence in the Items - Planning (cprpd1100m000) session.

Note

The forecast time fence is only used if the item has an item master plan.

Order Horizon
The date to which the order horizon extends.

You can specify the order horizon in the Items - Planning (cprpd1100m000) session.

Planning Horizon
The date to which the planning horizon extends.

You can specify the planning horizon in the Items - Planning (cprpd1100m000) session.

Whenever you move a plan to planned orders, you must be able to see the orders before you transfer them to execution level. This is why the item order plan uses the planning horizon. If the item does not have an item master plan, the planning horizon is equal to the order horizon.

ATP Horizon
Net Change Date
The net change date for order planning (see the Items - Planning (cprpd1100m000) session).
General
Planner
The employee or department responsible for planning the production, purchase and distribution of items. The planner takes into account the inventory levels, availability of materials, and capacities of resources, and reacts on signals such as rescheduling messages that LN generates.
Cost Price
The cost incurred by manufacturing or purchasing a single item (inventory valuation).
Note

LN retrieves the value of the current field from the Standard Cost field in the Items - Costing (ticpr0107m000) session.

Actual Supply Source
The actual supply source of the item.

If you define a date effectivity line in the Date-Effective Item Data (tcibd0510m000) session, the actual source can be time-dependent.

Inventory on Hand
The physical quantity of goods in one or more warehouses (including the inventory on hold).

 

Overview
Date
The end date and time of the period.

The displayed periods are defined by the period length (specified in the Scenario field) and the start date of the scenario. The first displayed period starts on the start date of the scenario. The last displayed period is determined by the planning horizon. The period in which the planning horizon falls is the last displayed period.

Note

If you chose the Detail option in the Scenario field, the last displayed line is the last order that occurs in the order horizon.

Simulate
You can use this field to enter additional demand or an additional supply of the plan item.

You can simulate an additional demand by entering a negative quantity. You can simulate an additional scheduled receipt or an additional planned supply by entering a positive quantity.

If you want to see the results of the simulation, click the Update icon.

Supply
The sum of the scheduled receipts and the planned receipt.
Planned Available
The expected inventory level at the end of a plan period.

Note that the projected inventory of plan periods that are entirely in the past equals the inventory on hand.

ATP
The item quantity that is still available to be promised to a customer.

In LN, available-to-promise (ATP) is part of a more extended framework of order promising techniques called capable-to-promise (CTP). If an item's ATP is insufficient, CTP goes beyond ATP in that it also considers the possibility of producing more than was initially planned.

In addition to the standard ATP functionality, LN also uses channel ATP. This term refers to the availability of an item for a certain sales channel, taking into account the sales limits for that channel.

For all other types of order promising functionality used in LN, the term CTP is used.

A reference number, for example a sales order line or a project deliverable line, that is used to model deviations for a unit effective item.
Order Status
The status assigned to a planned order in Enterprise Planning.

The order status can either be:

  • Planned
  • Firm Planned
  • Confirmed
Project
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.

Receiving Site
Receiving Item
The receiving plan item
Warehouse
The warehouse in which the items are received, or from which the items are issued.
Business Partner

If no ship-from business partner is known, the buy-from business partner is displayed instead.

Distribution Line
The number of the distribution line the order belongs to.
Supplying Site
Note

This field always contains a value. In case of planned production order or planned purchase order the value is set to the current company.

Supplying Item
The supplying plan item.
Date
The end date and time of the period.

The displayed periods are defined by the period length (specified in the Scenario field) and the start date of the scenario. The first displayed period starts on the start date of the scenario. The last displayed period is determined by the planning horizon. The period in which the planning horizon falls is the last displayed period.

Note

If you chose the Detail option in the Scenario field, the last displayed line is the last order that occurs in the order horizon.

Simulate
You can use this field to enter additional demand or an additional supply of the plan item.

You can simulate an additional demand by entering a negative quantity. You can simulate an additional scheduled receipt or an additional planned supply by entering a positive quantity.

If you want to see the results of the simulation, click the Update icon.

Scheduled Receipts
The number of items that you expect to receive according to the orders that are transferred to the execution level.

Transferred orders are, for example:

The number of items is displayed either:

  • By period, if a period is specified in the Scenario field.
  • By order, if the value of the Scenario field is Detail.

You cannot change the transferred orders in Enterprise Planning.

Note

LN retrieves the scheduled receipt data from the Planned Inventory Transactions (whinp1500m000) session.

ATP
The item quantity that is still available to be promised to a customer.

In LN, available-to-promise (ATP) is part of a more extended framework of order promising techniques called capable-to-promise (CTP). If an item's ATP is insufficient, CTP goes beyond ATP in that it also considers the possibility of producing more than was initially planned.

In addition to the standard ATP functionality, LN also uses channel ATP. This term refers to the availability of an item for a certain sales channel, taking into account the sales limits for that channel.

For all other types of order promising functionality used in LN, the term CTP is used.

Safety Stock
The buffer inventory necessary to meet fluctuations in demand and delivery lead time. In general, safety stock is a quantity of inventory planned to be in inventory to protect against fluctuations in demand or supply. In the context of master production scheduling, safety stock is the additional inventory and capacity planned as protection against forecast errors and short-term changes in the backlog.

Allocated to BP
If this record involves a supply, this field indicates the sold-to business partner to which this supply was allocated or demand pegged. If this record involves a demand, this field indicates the sold-to business partner to which the supply that can fill this demand must have been allocated or demand pegged.

LN uses this characteristic to match supply and demand.

Allocated to Business Object Type
If this record involves a supply, this field indicates the type of order to which the inventory was allocated or the supply object was demand pegged, such as, Sales Order, or Service Order. If this record involves a demand, this field indicates the type of order to which the supply that can fill this demand must have been allocated or demand pegged.

LN uses this characteristic to match supply and demand.

Note

The following fields are always used in combination; together, they identify the relevant order or order line:

  • Allocated to Business Object Type
  • Allocated to Business Object
  • Allocated to Business Object Reference
Allocated to Business Object
If this record involves a supply, this field indicates the order, or order line, to which the inventory was allocated or the supply object was demand pegged, such as, Sales Order, or Service Order. If this record involves a demand, this field indicates the order, or order line, to which the supply that can fill this demand must have been allocated or demand pegged.

LN uses this characteristic to match supply and demand.

Note

The following fields are always used in combination; together, they identify the relevant order or order line:

  • Allocated to Business Object Type
  • Allocated to Business Object
  • Allocated to Business Object Reference
Allocated to Reference
If this record involves a supply, this field indicates the reference code to which the inventory was allocated or the supply object was demand pegged. If this record involves a demand, this field indicates the reference code to which the supply that can fill this demand must have been allocated or demand pegged.

LN uses this characteristic to find a matching supply for this demand.

LN uses the Allocated to Reference field to record an internal reference.

You can use a reference code to keep a collection of parts linked together, even if they follow different routings, for example, if some of the parts are transported to a subcontractor to be returned later.

Use Unallocated Inventory
If this check box is selected, Enterprise Planning can use unallocated inventory to supply the demand. Enterprise Planning uses allocated inventory first. If there is not enough allocated inventory, Enterprise Planning also uses unallocated inventory.

If this check box is cleared, Enterprise Planning can use only allocated inventory to fill the demand.
