| | Inventory Consumption Lines (tdsls4141m000)Use this session to view, enter, and
maintain the individual consumptions for a combination of item,
sold-to business partner, ship-to business partner, and warehouse. These are
the consumption issues of a specific item from
the customer's or the subcontractor's warehouse. Consumption lines can be created as a result of: Note - Consumption lines are linked to a consumption header in the Inventory Consumptions (tdsls4140m000) session. If a consumption line is added for
which no consumption header record is available yet, this consumption is
automatically created in the Inventory Consumptions (tdsls4140m000) session.
- You can delete registered consumption headers if no related
consumption lines exist.
Sold-to Business Partner Usually a customer's purchase department, the business partner
who orders goods or services from your organization, that owns the
configurations you maintain, or for whom you perform a project. The agreement with the sold-to business partner can include
the following: - Default price and discount agreements
- Sales order defaults
- Delivery terms
- The related ship-to and invoice-to business partner
- In a vendor managed inventory (VMI) context, this is the customer who performs the
consumption or for whom the consumption is performed.
- In a subcontracting context, this is the subcontractor who
consumes the materials supplied by the manufacturer to produce the items for
the manufacturer.
Item In LN,
the raw materials, subassemblies, finished products, and tools that can be
purchased, stored, manufactured, sold, and so on. An item can also represent a set of items handled as one kit,
or exist in multiple product variants. You can also define nonphysical items, which are not held
in inventory but can be used to post costs or to invoice services to customers.
The following are examples of nonphysical items: - Cost items (for example, electricity)
- Service items
- Subcontracting services
- List items (menus/options)
Consumption Date The date and time the consumption is issued in the customer's
or the subcontractor's warehouse. The date can be in the past or in the
future. Consumed Quantity The quantity actually consumed by the customer, expressed in
the consumption unit. Consumed Quantity The unit in which the consumed quantity is
expressed. Price The price the customer expects to pay. This informational field
can be especially helpful in case of self-billing, when misunderstandings about the price can
be detected at an early stage. Price A generally accepted medium of exchange such as coins, treasury
notes, and banknotes. The following currency types are available in LN: - Home currency, which is used internally by companies to
calculate costs, record budgets, and register tax amounts
- Transaction currency, which is used in transactions with
business partners, such as orders and invoices
Price The unit to which the (sales/purchase) price applies. Customer Order In a vendor managed inventory (VMI) context, the customer's purchase order ID is
used to search for the supplier's sales order/schedule with which the VMI
warehouse was replenished. The payment type in the Payment field of the sales order/schedule is used to
determine whether invoicing is required for the consumption. This field is empty if the supplier performs supply planning
and creates sales orders/schedules to replenish the customer's inventory before
the customer sends a purchase order. For example, this occurs in the Supply
planning by supplier scenario. For more information, refer to Overview of VMI business scenarios. In a vendor managed inventory (VMI) context, the customer's purchase order line ID
is used to search for the supplier's sales order/schedule line with which the
VMI warehouse is replenished. The sales order/schedule is used to determine
whether invoicing is required for the consumption. In a vendor managed inventory (VMI) context, the customer's purchase order sequence
ID is used to search for the supplier's sales order/schedule line with which
the VMI warehouse is replenished. The sales order/schedule is used to determine
whether invoicing is required for the consumption. Packing Slip An order document that shows in detail the contents of a
particular package for shipment. The details include a description of the
items, the shippers or customers item number, the quantity shipped, and the
inventory unit of the shipped items. In a vendor managed inventory (VMI) context, this is the packing slip used for the
shipment to the VMI warehouse. This field is used to search for the corresponding sales
schedule shipment and to post it to Invoicing. Packing Slip (external) Note This field must be specified if the External Packing Slip is Mandatory check box is
selected for the applicable terms and conditions in the Schedule Terms and Conditions (tctrm1131m000) session. Subcontracting Reference The reference that the manufacturer sent to the subcontractor
through the subcontracting purchase order. The subcontractor used this
reference when reporting the consumption to the manufacturer. Allocated-to Reference The reference of the consumed inventory originating from the
customer. The reference is one of the attributes that you can define for a specification. LN can attach specifications to
order/schedule lines and inventory if the applicable terms and conditions
determine that the allocation and hard pegging functionality is used. If inventory is received in the customer's warehouse based
on an order/schedule with a reference, the reference is passed on to the
inventory. The inventory is then available for consumption issues made for
demand orders/schedules with matching references. Consumption Reference Informational reference to the customer's consumption ID. Return If this check box is selected, the consumed quantity on
the consumption line is returned, and is therefore not invoiced. Note If applicable, credit notes are handled by manually created return orders. Invoicing Required If this check box is selected, the consumed quantity
must be invoiced. Therefore, the company owned inventory is reduced and invoicing is performed. LN clears this check box if a subcontracting reference is present in the Subcontracting Reference field for the current
consumption line because typically, the subcontractor is not invoiced for
materials supplied by the manufacturer that the subcontractor consumes to
produce the items for the manufacturer. If no subcontracting reference is present on the consumption
line, and no sales order/schedule is found using the Customer Order field, LN checks the Payment field of the Order Terms and Conditions (tctrm1130m000) session for the relevant terms and
conditions. If payment is Pay on Use or payment is not defined, invoicing is required. If this check box is cleared, invoicing is not required.
Therefore, only the customer owned inventory is reduced and no invoicing is performed. Note The consumption line is not invoiced if: - The Return check box is selected.
- The Packaging Item check box is selected for the item in
the Inventory Consumptions (tdsls4140m000) session.
Processed If this check box is selected, the consumption line is
processed. This means that the related sales orders/schedules, warehouse
orders, production order, and purchase orders are updated to decrease inventory
in the administrative warehouse and to create invoicing lines if
required. Ship-to Business Partner The business partner to which you ship the ordered goods. This
usually represents a customer's distribution center or warehouse. The
definition includes the default warehouse from which you send the goods, the
carrier who carries out the transport, and the related sold-to business
partner. - In a vendor managed inventory (VMI) context, this is the distribution center or
warehouse of the customer who performs the consumption or for whom the
consumption is performed.
- In a subcontracting context, this is the distribution center
or warehouse of the subcontractor who consumes the materials supplied by the
manufacturer to produce the items for the manufacturer.
Allocated to Business Partner LN uses this characteristic to find a matching supply for this demand. Allocated to Business Object Type The supply that fills this demand must have been allocated or hard pegged to the type of order displayed in this field. LN uses this characteristic to find a matching supply for this demand. Note The following fields are always used in combination;
together, they identify the relevant order or order line: - Business Object Type
- Business Object
- Business Object Reference
Allocated to Business Object The supply that fills this demand must have been allocated or hard pegged to the order, or order line, displayed in this field. LN uses this characteristic to find a matching supply for this demand. Note The following fields are always used in combination;
together, they identify the relevant order or order line: - Business Object Type
- Business Object
- Business Object Reference
Allocated to Business Object Reference LN can use this characteristic to find a matching supply for this
demand. Note The combination of the following fields identifies the
order or order line to which the ordered items were allocated: - Business Object Type
- Business Object
- Business Object Reference
Allocated to Reference The supply that fills this demand is allocated or hard pegged to the reference code displayed in this
field. LN uses this characteristic to find a matching supply for this demand. LN can use this field in two ways: - If the Business Partner field is filled, LN uses the Reference field to record a reference code defined by
a customer.
- If the Business Partner field is empty, LN uses the 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. | |
