To update goods-flow data

You can update the goods-flow data in an item's master plan in one of the following ways:

  • Choose the Generate command in the Item Master Plan (cprmp2101m000) session.
  • Run the Initialize, Roll, and Update Scenario (cprpd4200m000) session, with the Update Goods Flow Data check box selected.
  • Run the Generate Master Planning (cprmp1202m000) session or the Generate Master Planning (Item) (cprmp1203m000) session, with the Update Goods Flow check box selected.
Retrieving goods-flow data for items

If the Plan Item Type field has the value Item, LN retrieves the goods-flow data from the inventory transactions and the planned inventory transactions in Warehousing.

The on-hand inventory of the current period is also retrieved.

LN sometimes adds the sales quotations to the customer orders. See To add quotations to customer orders.

Retrieving goods-flow data for product families

If the Plan Item Type field has the value Family, LN aggregates the goods-flow data from the item master plan of the child items to the item master plan of the family, based on the aggregation relationships.
