| | Consumption Percentages by Business Partner (whinr1135m000)Use this session to view consumptions per item and business partner.
For each item, this session shows the cumulative consumption quantities and
percentages by business partner. The business partners are the buy-from business partners who own the item inventory from which consumptions take place. In addition, the sourcing percentage of each business partner
is displayed. The sourcing percentages are taken from the Items - Purchase Business Partner (tdipu0110m000) session. LN uses the
consumption percentages and the sourcing percentages to determine from which
business partner's inventory the next consumption is to take place. For further
information, see Sourcing rules for consumptions. Note Consumption quantities and percentages that you delete are
subtracted from the total consumption quantities and percentages, and thus may
impact the result of the calculation that LN performs
to determine from which business partner's inventory the next consumption is to
take place. 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)
