The item type to which the default values apply.

Items - Ordering Defaults (tcibd2101m000)Use this session to view, specify, and maintain the default item ordering data for a combination of item type and item group. The item ordering data includes:
Note Before you can define the default ordering data in this session, you must first enter the default general item data for the item type and item group combination in the Items - Defaults (tcibd0102m000) session.
Item Type Item Group The item group to which the default values apply. Customize If this check box is selected, this is an item for
which a product structure and/or a project structure is generated per customer order (sales order or contract deliverable). The
setting of the With PCS check box determines whether a project structure is generated, and
consequently, a PCS project is linked to the customized items. This table shows when the Customize check box can be selected:
Note You can specify the Default Supply Source in the Items (tcibd0501m000) session. Order System The default order system for the item. Note The Planned order system only applies if the default supply source is Repetitive. With PCS If this check box is selected, for a main item, the item structure is generated by using a PCS project. This table shows when the With PCS check box can be selected:
Note
Order Method The item's default order method. Order Interval The number of workdays or working hours for which all the
requirements of a specific item are bundled in one (planned) order, during an
order planning run. LN calculates the order interval from the day when the first requirement occurs.
Order intervals are used to prevent an excessive number of planned orders in
one time period. ![[...]](../images/tr_graph_op_order_interval.png) Order Interval Unit Select Hours or Days as the
time unit in which you want to express the order interval. External Kanban Controlled If this check box is selected, the Kanban labels are controlled externally. Planned by Infor Planning If this check box is selected, planning is done by Infor SCM Planner. Safety Stock The safety stock for the item. The quantities are expressed in the item's inventory unit. Note The safety stock must be less than or equal to the maximum inventory or the re-order point. Seasonal Pattern for Safety Stock The default seasonal pattern for safety stock. 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. Time Unit Select Hours or Days as the
time unit in which you want to express the safety time. Warehouse The default warehouse in which the
item is stored. For example, LN uses the default item warehouse:
You must specify a default item warehouse for items of the following types:
Reorder Point A set inventory level where, if the total stock on-hand plus
total on-order falls below that point, action is taken to replenish the
stock. Planner The default planner. Economic Order Quantity The economic order quantity for the item. The order quantities are expressed in the item's inventory unit. Example LN generates a planned order for 20 units of an item with a SIC order system and the Economic Order Quantity order method.
As a result, the order is adjusted to 30 units. Order Quantity Increment The size of the step by which the order quantity can be
increased. The recommended order quantity must be a multiple of the quantity that you specify as the order quantity increment. LN verifies this when planned orders are generated. Example If the required order quantity is 62 and the order quantity increment is 8, then LN recommends an order quantity of 64. LN verifies this, when planned orders are generated. The order quantities are expressed in the item's inventory unit. Minimum Order Quantity The minimum order quantity for the item. The order quantities are expressed in the item's inventory unit. Note If you select the Lot Size Calculation Allowed check box, LN updates this field when you run the Global Update of Inventory Parameters (whina2200m000) session. Example
As a result, LN generates a planned order for 800 instead of an order for 130 (230-100). Maximum Order Quantity The maximum order quantity for the item. The order quantities are expressed in the item's inventory unit. Note If you select the Lot Size Calculation Allowed check box, LN updates this field when you run the Global Update of Inventory Parameters (whina2200m000) session. Example
As a result, LN generates two orders for 400 each instead of a single planned order for 430 (530-100). Fixed Order Quantity The fixed order quantity for the item. The order quantities are expressed in the item's inventory unit. Note If you select the Lot Size Calculation Allowed check box, LN updates this field when you run the Global Update of Inventory Parameters (whina2200m000) session. Example The order method is Fixed Order Quantity and the Fixed Order Quantity is 20. If you require 70 units, LN generates four orders for 20 units each (a total of 80 units). Lot Size Calculation Allowed If this check box is selected, LN automatically updates the item's inventory
and order data. The inventory data and order data in this session is automatically updated when you run the following sessions:
When you run the Global Update of Inventory Parameters (whina2200m000) session, the following fields are automatically updated:
When you run the Calculate Economic Order Quantity (Camp) (whina2201m000) session, the Economic Order Quantity field is automatically updated. When you run the Calculate Demand Forecast (whina2202m000) session, the following fields are automatically updated:
Maximum Inventory If the order method is Replenish to Maximum Inventory, LN generates purchase orders or production
orders for the quantities of the item that are required to reach this inventory
level. The quantities are expressed in the item's inventory unit. Seasonal Pattern for Forecast The seasonal demand pattern for the item. Number of Periods The number of days, weeks, or months (the selected period type)
in one period of the selected seasonal pattern. Period Type The unit of time for the period in the selected seasonal
pattern. Service Level The default service level percentage determines to what extent the item can be delivered
directly from inventory. Example A service level of 95% means that in 95% of all cases customer demand must be satisfied by an immediate delivery. In other words, No is accepted in 5% of the cases. Note A service level of 100% is not recommended, because it causes an infinitely high safety inventory. Update by Project Cost Calculation If this check box is selected, LN replaces the Order Quantity Project with the Recommended Order Quantity Project when you run one of the following sessions:
Critical in Master Planning If this check box is selected, this plan item is
critical in master planning. This means
that in the master-planning process in Enterprise Planning, this
item is treated as a critical component. If the item order system is Planned, you can select or clear this check box. In order planning, all components are taken into account. In master planning, only critical components are considered. Note Master planning uses an item's bill of critical materials (BCM) for production planning. As a rule, the BCM is derived from the BOM, and contains only those components that are designated as critical in master planning. You can generate a BCM for an item in the Generate Bill of Critical Materials (cprpd3220m000) session. Order Costs The (administrative) costs for placing an order. Order costs
include the handling and transportation costs. The costs of the purchasing
department, production planning department, and control department incurred by
a production order or a purchase order. The order costs are expressed in the default currency selected for the item group in the Item Groups (tcmcs0123m000) session. Currency The default currency selected for the item group in the Item Groups (tcmcs0123m000) session. Shop Floor Planner The default shop floor planner. Routing Group The default routing group.
