Planning Inventory Levels (tctrm1136m000)

Use this session to define the minimum inventory level and maximum inventory level for a specific time period in the terms and conditions agreement.

Note

You can only define time-phased inventory levels in this session if the Min-Max Specification field is set to By Quantity in the Planning Terms and Conditions (tctrm1135m000) session.

Fixed inventory levels and time-phased inventory levels can be combined. For the periods for which time-phased levels are set up, these inventory levels are applicable. For the remaining periods, the fixed inventory levels from the Planning Terms and Conditions (tctrm1135m000) session are used.

Example
  • The terms and conditions agreement is effective from 1 January 2007 through 31 December 2007.
  • For this year, the fixed minimum inventory level is 100.
  • For this year, the fixed maximum inventory level is 500.
  • A time phased inventory level is set up for February with the following data:
    • Start date: 1 February 2007.
    • End date: 28 February 2007.
    • The minimum inventory level is 200.
    • The maximum inventory level is 800.

Therefore, the inventory quantities are as follows:

Time periodMinimum inventory levelMaximum inventory level

Inventory Unit

The unit of measure in which the inventory of an item is recorded, such as piece, kilogram, box of 12, or meter.

The inventory unit is also used as the base unit in measure conversions, especially for conversions that concern the order unit and the price unit on a purchase order or a sales order. These conversions always use the inventory unit as the base unit. An inventory unit therefore applies to all item types, also to item types that cannot be kept in stock.

Start Date

The first date and time the time phased inventory record is applicable.

End Date

The last date and time the time phased inventory record is applicable.

Minimum Inventory Level

Customs Authorizations are issued to allow duty free import of products, used to produce the export product (after making normal allowance for wastage). In addition, fuel, oil, energy catalysts, and so on, which are consumed to obtain the export product, are also allowed to be imported, free of import duties.

Maximum Inventory Level

The authorized value, beyond which import duties must be paid and cannot be claimed.
