| | Confirm Order Planning (cprrp1200m000)Use this session to confirm planned orders. The result
is that planned orders with the Planned or Firm Planned order status get the Confirmed order status.
You can transfer confirmed planned orders to the execution level. During the next
planning run, confirmed orders are not moved or removed, only replanned and
updated in case something changes in the lead times or in the routing. If you select EP Order Group Selection, you can confirm planned or firm planned order for an entire order group. Selection Actual Scenario The identification of an overall planning solution. Each scenario represents one overall planning solution, and
involves particular settings for the planning of items and resources. You can
use scenarios to analyze and compare various planning options and to find the
best planning solution. For example, you can vary demand forecasts or sourcing
strategies. One of the scenarios is the actual scenario, which
corresponds with the actual planning situation. You can only transfer planned
orders and production plans from the actual scenario to the execution level of LN. Confirm Planned Orders If this check box is selected, planned orders will be approved and
transferred to the execution level. Planned Cost Peg Transfers If this check box is selected, planned cost peg transfers will be
approved. EP Order Groups If this check box is selected, LN confirms planned orders for an order group, which you can
define in the EP Order Group field. Planned Orders Planned Order Selection Planned Order A supply order in Enterprise Planning that is created for planning
purposes, but which is not an actual order yet. Enterprise Planning works with planned orders of the following types: Planned orders are generated in the context of a particular
scenario. The planned orders of the actual scenario can be transferred to the
execution level, where they become actual supply orders. Order Type Select the type or order for confirmation. Item Group Group of items with similar characteristics. Each item belongs
to a particular item group. The item group is used in combination with the item
type to set up item defaults. Planner The employee or department responsible for planning the
production, purchase and distribution of items. The planner takes into account
the inventory levels, availability of materials, and capacities of resources,
and reacts on signals such as rescheduling messages that LN generates. Buyer The employee of your company who is the contact to the
concerned buy-from business partner. The buyer is also known as the purchasing
agent. Shop Floor Planner The person responsible for printing, (re)scheduling and
releasing production orders and managing workloads. Routing Group A group of items with similar routing attributes, for example,
the same work center, routing operation, BOM, and so on. A routing group is
defined by the user as a selection criterion for production
orders. 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. Warehouse A place for storing goods. For each warehouse, you can enter
address data and data relating to its type. From 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. Planned Order Options Include Orders with Release status 'Not to be Released' If this check box is selected, orders with the status 'Not to be Released'
will be inculded in the transfer. Within Order Lead Time Only If this check box is selected, you can restrict the selection of planned
orders to those orders that have a planned start date within a particular
period in the near future. The period ends at the following moment: Current date + (Order lead time x order lead-time multiplier) The value of the order lead time depends on several
factors. For more information, refer to Confirm planned orders based on lead time. . Planned Production Orders If this check box is selected, the order-lead-time restriction is
applied to planned production orders. Planned Purchase Orders If this check box is selected, the order-lead-time restriction is
applied to planned purchase orders. Planned Distribution Orders The method to determine the order lead time for planned
distribution orders. For planned distribution orders, you can choose the
following methods to determine the order lead time: Supplying Item The order lead time is defined as the time to
manufacture or purchase the supplying item. This order lead time is defined in
the Items - Production (tiipd0101m000) or Items - Purchase (tdipu0101m000) sessions respectively. The supplying item can be defined in another
company, the supplying site. Supply Lead Time
Order Lead-Time Multiplier The factor used to multiply the order lead-time to calculate
the period for which you want to confirm planned orders. You can enter a value between 0.00 and 999999.00. The
default value is 1.00 EP Order Groups EP Order Group Specify a range of order groups that you created in the Create Order Group for Planned Orders (cppat3250m000) session.
