Print Shortages by Production Order (tisfc0418m000)

Use this session to check whether the material that is required for a production order is available in time.

 

SFC Order Group
If this check box is selected, inventory shortages are printed for all production orders in the SFC order group that you select.
SFC Order Group
Enter the range of SFC order groups that contain the production orders whose inventory shortages you want to print.

You must first select the SFC Order Group check box.

SFC Order Group
Enter the range of SFC order groups that contain the production orders whose inventory shortages you want to print.

You must first select the SFC Order Group check box.

Date of Production
Production orders with a production start date that falls within this range are checked for material shortages.
Date of Production
Production orders with a production start date that falls within this range are checked for material shortages.
Print Planned Receipts
If this check box is selected, LN prints a list of planned purchase receipts, planned production receipts, and transfers with corresponding delivery dates, along with the shortage list. These lists help you to assess how serious the shortages are, and to set your priorities for material requisition.
Note

Although the calculation of the total shortage takes all firm-planned inventory transactions into account, this list only shows the planned transactions for production and purchase.

Print Total Warehouses in Cluster
If this check box is selected, all warehouses (normal and WIP) in a cluster are checked for inventory when analyzing material shortages. If a shortage occurs in a specific warehouse, the shortage can be solved by warehouse transfers.
Include Projected Inventory
If this check box is selected, the actual inventory that is physically present in the warehouse(s) as well as the inventory that will be consumed by planned production orders is taken into account when analyzing material shortages for the selected production orders.
Ignore Scheduled Receipts
If you expect your suppliers and/or forecasts to be unreliable you can best make a pessimistical analysis of the material supply. You can do this by selecting this check box.

If this check box is selected, the expected and planned material receipts and issues are not taken into account when analyzing material shortages. Select this check box if you expect materials to be late, or the quantities to be insufficient.

You can also use the Ignore Blocked Inventory check box to make a pessimistical analysis of the material supply. The inventory that is blocked for inspection is not taken into account for analyzing the production orders' material supply. Select the Ignore Blocked Inventory check box if you expect the material quality to be poor.

Note

You must select the Include Projected Inventory check box before you can select the Ignore Scheduled Receipts check box.

Ignore Blocked Inventory
If this check box is selected, the inventory that is blocked for inspection is not taken into account for analyzing the production orders' material supply. Select this check box if you expect the material quality to be poor.

If you expect your suppliers and/or forecasts to be unreliable you can best make a pessimistical analysis of the material supply. To make a pessimistic analysis select this check box.

You can also use the Ignore Scheduled Receipts check box to do a pessimistical analysis of the material supply. In that case, the expected and planned material receipts and issues are not taken into account when analyzing material shortages. Select this check box if you expect materials to be late or the quantities to be insufficient.

Simulate Upto Date
If this check box is selected, you can enter a date in the date field. This date determines up to which date the planned inventory is taken into account when analyzing material shortages.
Simulate Upto Date
The date up to which the planned inventory is taken into account when analyzing material shortages.
Note

You can only enter a date if you selected the Simulate Upto Date check box.

Min. Inventory
Usually, a material is in short supply if the material's inventory is less than 0 (zero).

Example

If you require four pieces of material for a production order, and you have four on hand, you have a sufficient amount of materials. If your requirements are five pieces of material, then you have a shortage of one, because 4 - 5 < 0.

However, if the inventory is inaccurate, the quantity of materials in inventory can be more or less than you expected.

Example

You require four pieces of material for a production order. You expect, after you run the Print Shortages by Production Order (tisfc0418m000) session, to have four pieces in inventory. However, because of inaccuracy only two pieces of material are available in inventory. You now have an unexpected shortage of two. This type of unexpected shortage can be very disruptive during production.

You can use the Min. Inventory field to enter a value that accounts for any inaccuracy in inventory. You can also enter a value in this field if you need a margin because you are not sure about the required quantity of materials.

Example

If you enter 2 in the Min. Inventory field, a shortage is already determined if the following is valid: Note Be cautious in entering a value in the Min. Inventory field because of the following:

  • The value in the Min. Inventory field applies to all materials of a specific production order. Therefore, the assumed inventory unit must be in line with the inventory units that are used for the materials in the production order.
  • The value in the Min. Inventory field must not be too big or too small. For example, you need 0.03 kg of material A, and 20 kg of material B for a specific production order. A value of 5 in the Min. Inventory field is useless if, for example, the maximum inventory of material A is 1 kg.
Upto Date
The date up to which the planned purchase and production receipts are printed.
Include Actual Shortages
If this check box is selected, only the inventory that is physically present in the warehouse(s) is taken into account when analyzing material shortages for the selected production orders. The material in inventory that will be consumed by planned production orders is not taken into account.
Sort by
The order in which production orders are printed on the report.
Sort by Warehouse
If this check box is selected, LN only checks the inventory in the warehouse that you specified for a material in the Warehouse field in the Estimated Materials (ticst0101m000) session.

If a production order has multiple material lines for the same material in various warehouses, the total demand is calculated by warehouse, and subsequently compared to the inventory for each warehouse.

If this check box is cleared, LN checks the total inventory in all warehouses. If a production order has multiple material lines for the same material in various warehouses, the total demand is calculated and subsequently compared to the total inventory.
