Confirmed Supply from Supplier (cpvmi0105m000)

Use this session to enter the confirmed-supply data received from your supplier.

Electronic messaging is the recommended method to exchange forecast and confirmed-supply data. If electronic messaging is not available, you can resort to this session to enter data received by fax or other methods.

Note
  • After you set a revision of the confirmed supply to Accepted, you can no longer change that confirmed-supply record.
  • The possibility to change confirmed-supply data is intended only to correct data-entry errors. If you make other changes, you may cause deviations between your version of the data and the supplier's version.
  • The data you enter must be in accordance with the applicable terms and conditions agreement.

 

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.

Buy-from BP
The business partner from whom you order goods or services; this usually represents a supplier's sales department. The definition includes the default price and discount agreements, purchase-order defaults, delivery terms, and the related ship-from and invoice-from business partner.
Revision
The revision number linked to the messages that communicate demand and supply data between customer and supplier.

A business partner can send multiple revised versions of messages with demand and supply data. Each revised version gets a revision number that has been incremented by one.

The customer generates the revision numbers. The supplier uses the same revision to mark a corresponding message to the customer.

Accepted
If this check box is selected, you accepted the confirmed supply.

The planning process only uses the confirmed supply that has been accepted.

After the confirmed supply has been accepted for a particular revision, you can no longer change the confirmed-supply record for that revision.

Note

The Automatic Accept Confirmed Supply field in the EP Parameters (cprpd0100m000) session does not affect the records you entered in this session. You must accept this confirmed supply manually.

Planned Receipt Date
The date on which the goods are expected to arrive in the destination warehouse.

A terms and conditions agreement must exist that is valid for this date.

Order Type
The type of order displayed on this line.
Supply
The quantity of the supply.
Specification
If this check box is selected, a specification is present.

To display or enter the specification, in the appropriate menu, click Specification.

Allocated to Reference
The reference code to which this supply object was 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.

If you enter a value here, you must also have communicated this reference with the supplier.
