Accept Confirmed Supply from Supplier (cpvmi0205m000)

Use this session to set the confirmed supply you received from your VMI supplier to Accepted.

If the confirmed supply has not been accepted, LN does not take this confirmed supply into account.

If the Automatic Accept Confirmed Supply field in the EP Parameters (cprpd0100m000) session has been selected, the confirmed supply is automatically accepted upon receipt.

Note

If you accept confirmed supply, you accept the most recently received revision of confirmed-supply data for each selected combination of buy-from business partner and plan item.

 

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.
Planner
The planner responsible for planning this plan item.

You define a plan item's planner in the Planner field in the Items - Planning (cprpd1100m000) session.

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.

Accept planned Receipt Dates before current Date
If this check box is selected, you also accept the confirmed supply if the confirmed-supply records contain dates that lie in the past.
Accept non-Pattern Planned Receipt Dates
If this check box is selected, you also accept the confirmed supply with planned receipt dates that do not match the dates and times you agreed with your supplier.

The agreed dates and times are specified in the pattern defined in the Delivery Moments field in the Planning Terms and Conditions (tctrm1135m000) session.
