Purchase Contract Line Logistic Detail Line (tdpur3102m100)

Use this session to view, enter, and maintain logistic agreements for a purchase contract line detail.

The purchase contract line logistic detail data provides default values to the purchase schedule that is linked to the purchase contract line detail.

You can only change logistic agreements with the Free status. A purchase contract line logistic detail line has the same status as its parent purchase contract line logistic data for which the status can be changed in the Purchase Contract Line Logistic Data (tdpur3102m000) session.

Note

This session is only applicable for corporate purchase contracts.

 

Contract

The number of the corporate purchase contract.

The status of the logistic record, which can be Free, or Active.

Note

A purchase contract line logistic detail line has the same status as its parent purchase contract line logistic data for which the status can be changed in the Purchase Contract Line Logistic Data (tdpur3102m000) session.

Position

The number of the purchase contract line.

Purchase Office

A department in your organization that is responsible for buying the materials and services needed by your organization. You assign number groups to the purchase office.

In this way, you can assign serial numbers to:

  • Purchase orders
  • Purchase schedules
  • Requests for quotations
  • Purchase contracts

You can also define a default warehouse where goods ordered by the purchase office must be delivered.

Sequence
Item

In LN, the raw materials, subassemblies, finished products, and tools that can be purchased, stored, manufactured, sold, and so on.

An item can also represent a set of items handled as one kit, or exist in multiple product variants.

You can also define nonphysical items, which are not held in inventory but can be used to post costs or to invoice services to customers. The following are examples of nonphysical items:

  • Cost items (for example, electricity)
  • Service items
  • Subcontracting services
  • List items (menus/options)
Carrier/LSP

An organization that provides transport services. You can link a default carrier to both ship-to and ship-from business partners. In addition, you can print sales and purchase orders on a packing list, sorted by carrier.

For ordering and invoicing, you must define a carrier as a business partner.

Internal Processing Time

The time required between the recognition of needs and the release of the purchase order. Internal processing time includes document preparation and sourcing.

Note

If purchase schedules are automatically generated by Enterprise Planning, this field is used in the supplier selection process. Enterprise Planning uses this field, together with the Safety Time and Supply Time fields, to assign a priority to suppliers who can deliver the required item.

Internal Processing Time Unit

The unit in which the internal processing time is expressed.

Safety Time

The time that you can add to the normal lead time to protect delivery of goods against fluctuations in the lead time so that an order can be completed before the order's real need date.

Note

If purchase schedules are automatically generated by Enterprise Planning, this field is used in the supplier selection process. Enterprise Planning uses this field, together with the Internal Processing Time and Supply Time fields, to assign a priority to suppliers who can deliver the required item.

Safety Time Unit

The unit in which the safety time is expressed.

Supply Time

The total time required to obtain an item that is forecasted. This time is used to calculate an item's order lead time, based on which a company takes commitment decisions and executes capacity planning and order management.

Example

For item A, the supplier communicated a supply time of 50 days. This is in fact a reduced lead time and is only possible because a three year forecast is sent to the supplier for this item. If additional quantities are needed, which are not included in the forecast, the supplier needs the full supply time, which is 300 days.

Note

If purchase schedules are automatically generated by Enterprise Planning, this field is used in the supplier selection process. Enterprise Planning uses this field, together with the Internal Processing Time and Safety Time fields, to assign a priority to suppliers who can deliver the required item.

Supply Time Unit

The unit in which the supply time is expressed.

Transportation Time (Days)

The transportation time in days, which can be calculated in two ways.

LN retrieves the transportation time as follows:

  • If Freight is implemented, which you can define in the Implemented Software Components (tccom0500m000) session, calculation of the transportation time is based on carrier, and routes. Route plans and service levels are not known at this point in time.

    LN performs the following steps to retrieve the transportation time.

    1. If the route, the carrier, the origin, and the destination addresses are known, LN first searches for route plans and then for standard routes with matching routes, carriers, and addresses.
    2. If more than one matching route plan or standard route is found, LN selects the route plan or standard route with a transport means group that matches the transport means group of the carrier.
    3. If LN still finds more than one route plan or standard route, route plans have priority over standard routes. If only standard routes are found, the standard route is selected following the settings of the Carrier/LSP Selection Criterion parameter in the Freight Planning Parameters (fmlbd0100m000) session.
    4. If LN still finds more than one route plan, it selects the first one it encounters in the database.
  • If Freight is not implemented, LN takes the transportation time between the ship-from business partner's address and the receiving warehouse's address, based on a relevant distance table (if available) in the Distance Table by City (tccom4137s000) session or in the Distance Table by ZIP Code/Postal Code (tccom4138s000) session. From which of these two sessions the transportation time is retrieved, depends on the value of the Usage Distance Tables field in the COM Parameters (tccom0000s000) session.
Calculated Lead Time (Days)

The rough purchase item lead time expressed in days. The calculated lead time is only used to determine the planned receipt date of forecast demand for which no accurate determination of the planned receipt date is yet required.

The calculated lead time is based on the availability type and calendar template that are linked to the following fields:

  • Supply Time
  • Internal Processing Time
  • Safety Time
  • Transportation Time (Days)
Note

Each time you open or close the current session, LN (re)calculates the calculated lead time.

Full Supply Time

The total time required to obtain an item that is not forecasted. This time is used to calculate the full cumulative order lead time for an item, which includes the cumulative lead time of purchased parts.

Example

For item A, the supplier communicated a supply time of 50 days. This is in fact a reduced lead time and is only possible because a three year forecast is sent to the supplier for this item. If additional quantities are needed, which are not included in the forecast, the supplier needs the full supply time, which is 300 days.

Note

This field is visible only if the Use Full Supply Time check box is selected in the Purchase Parameters (tdpur0100m000) session.

Full Supply Time Unit

The unit in which the full supply time is expressed.

Note

This field is visible only if the Use Full Supply Time check box is selected in the Purchase Parameters (tdpur0100m000) session.

Calculated Full Lead Time (Days)

The rough purchase full item lead time expressed in days.

The calculated full lead time is based on the availability type and calendar template that are linked to the following fields:

  • Full Supply Time
  • Internal Processing Time
  • Safety Time
  • Transportation Time (Days)
Note
  • This field is visible only if the Use Full Supply Time check box is selected in the Purchase Parameters (tdpur0100m000) session.
  • Each time you open or close the current session, LN (re)calculates the calculated full lead time.
Inbound Lead Time

The time interval between the arrival of the items and the actual storage in the warehouse.

In this session, this field is displayed for information purposes only.

Inbound Lead Time Unit

The unit in which the inbound lead time is expressed.

Lead Time Horizon

The number of days that, together with the current date/generation date, determines whether:

  • LN uses the calculated lead time to determine the planned receipt date. LN uses this calculation when the date for which the lead time is calculated, falls outside the lead time horizon. Planned dates are calculated using the value from the Calculated Lead Time (Days) field, which is derived from the company's calendar.
  • LN determines the planned receipt date, taking into account the calendars that are related to the lead time components. LN uses this calculation when the date for which the lead time is calculated, lies between the current date and the lead time horizon. Planned dates are calculated using the individual lead time components with the components' respective calendars.
Issue Pattern for Shipping Schedule

The pattern used to determine the issue date for shipping schedules.

Note
  • An issue pattern for shipping schedule is only used in push schedules. In case of pull schedules, this issue pattern is not used.
  • If the Use Material Release for Firm Requirements check box is selected in the Purchase Contract Line Logistic Data (tdpur3102m000), you cannot enter an issue pattern in this field.
Schedule Type

The type of purchase schedule, which is always push schedule in this session.

Shipment or Receipt Based

Specify on what date and time (schedule) requirements are based.

Note

The value of this field is defaulted to the Shipment/Receipt Based field of the Purchase Schedules (tdpur3110m000) session.

Freezing Time Increase

The number of days, calculated from the current date, for which you can no longer increase the quantity of required items.

If the purchase schedule is Shipment Based, which you can define in the Shipment or Receipt Based field of the current session, frozen time limits are based on planned shipment dates. If the schedule is Receipt Based, frozen time limits are based on planned receipt dates.

Frozen Period (-)

The number of days, calculated from the current date, for which you can no longer reduce the quantity of required items.

If the purchase schedule is Shipment Based, which you can define in the Shipment or Receipt Based field of the current session, frozen time limits are based on planned shipment dates. If the schedule is Receipt Based, frozen time limits are based on planned receipt dates.

Use Working Days for Frozen Period

If this check box is selected, only working days are used when calculating frozen periods.

If this check box is cleared, calendar days are used when calculating frozen periods.

Note

If this check box is selected, the specified number of working days is added to the current date. The working days are retrieved from the calendar that is linked to the ship-from business partner, the buy-from business partner, or the company.

If this check box is cleared, the specified number of calendar days is added to the current date.

When planning the dates, the availability type from the Purchase Parameters (tdpur0100m000) session is used.

Delete Past Schedule Lines

This check box determines how to handle undelivered and redundant quantities on schedule lines with dates in the past.

If this check box is selected, the schedule lines are deleted by Enterprise Planning.

If this check box is cleared, planning messages are generated informing a planner to manually delete the schedule lines.

Note

This check box can be selected only if the Frozen Period for Decreasing Qty is zero in the current session.

Package Definition

The package definition for the item.
