Demand Pegging Relationships (tcibd4520m000)

Use this session to display the demand pegging relationships between combinations of Parent Business Object Type, Parent Business Object, and Parent Business Object Reference.

In this session, all business object combinations are displayed with the same specification (demand pegging data) as is linked to the parent business object combination from the header. The specification is displayed in the Allocated to group box.

On the appropriate menu, you can click Only Purchase Order Lines and Production Orders to only display purchase orders and production orders with the same specification as the parent business object combination from the header.

Note

This session enables you to view to which business objects a specification is transferred.

Parent Business Object Reference

Reference

The supply that fills the demand must have been 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.

Use Unallocated Inventory

If this check box is selected, unallocated inventory can be allocated and used to supply the demand order. First, allocated inventory is used, then unallocated inventory.

If this check box is cleared, only allocated inventory can be used.
