The supply source that is used to replenish the inventory on hand for the current date as defined in the Date-Effective Supply Source (tcibd0510m000) session.

Allowed values

Supply Source

Search Key
The search keys that are used to retrieve items from various sessions.
Inventory Unit
The unit of measure in which the inventory of the item is recorded.
Default Supply Source
The source that supplies an item by default. You can use purchase orders or schedules, production orders or schedules, assembly orders, or warehousing orders to supply an item.

The default supply source determines what type of order is used to supply the item, but in general, you can override the default and specify an alternate source.

You can use this field to determine the type of supply order LN must create, when you specify a sales order for this item and the item's inventory on hand is not sufficient.

Note

If the item type is Manufactured or Generic, the supply source can be Job Shop or Assembly.

If the item type is Engineering Module, the supply source is Assembly and cannot be modified.

If the item type is Purchased, the supply source is Purchase and cannot be modified.

Allowed values

Source

BOM Quantity
The number of manufactured items on which the item's bill of material is based. The BOM quantity enables you to specify very small item quantities as bill of material components.

Scrap Percentage
The scrap quantity defined as a percentage or as a fixed quantity.

The scrap percentage is calculated using this formula:

Gross requirement = (scrap factor/100% + 1) * net quantity

Related topics

Scrap Quantity
The quantity used to estimate the fixed loss of quantity in the manufacturing process.

A fixed quantity scrap is calculated using this formula:

Gross requirement = net quantity + scrap quantity

Warehouse is Mandatory on BOM Line
If this check box is selected, for the item used as a component in the bill of material, you must specify the warehouse for this component item on the BOM line in the Bill of Material (tibom1110m000) details session.
Note

If you do not specify a warehouse on the BOM line, the warehouse specified in the Items - Ordering (tcibd2100m000) session is used for the production order material line.

Phantom
If this check box is selected, the item is a phantom.

You can overrule the Phantom check box in the Bill of Material (tibom1110m000) session.

Related topics

Use Phantom Inventory
If this check box is selected, LN checks if any phantom inventory is available.

If the phantom item is available in inventory, and the quantity is sufficient, this inventory is used as a component in the production order.

If phantom inventory is not available, or the quantity is insufficient, the inventory is not used. LN considers the component a normal phantom item, so the phantom is exploded for the total quantity in the BOM.

Turn Operation 0 into First of
If material of a phantom item is not linked to a specific operation, this field is used to determine the time when the material must be issued.
Note

This field is only relevant if the operations of the production order originate partly from the routing of the phantom items.

For a material's operated item, see the Operated Item field in the Estimated Materials (ticst0101m000) session.

Performance aspects

For performance reasons, it is recommended to set this field to Order. For more information, refer to Material for multiple operations.

Order Lead Time
The production time of an item expressed in hours or days, based on the lead time elements as defined in the routing operations.

The order lead time is determined when you click Update Order Lead Time in this session.

Select Hours or Days as the time unit in which you want to express the order lead time.

Routing Unit
The quantity of the manufactured item based on which the routing is planned. You can use this unit to include short operation times in the routing of an item.
Quantity-dependent Routing
If this check box is selected, LN, by default, selects a particular routing. The selection is based on the order quantity.

Therefore, the order quantity of an item affects the:

  • Operation times
  • Work centers
  • Machines
  • Other routing-related data
Derived from Item
The item from which the item, in the Item field, is derived.
Note

If a standard item is copied to a customized item using the Copy Standard Product Structure to Customized Structure (tipcs2230m000) session, LN displays the standard item code in the customized item's Derived from Item field.

Backflush Materials
If this check box is selected, you can backflush the material that is required to produce the item.

Serialized items

Serialized items can only be backflushed if in the Items - Warehousing (whwmd4500m000) details session the Serials in Inventory check box is cleared, and the Register Serial Issue During As Built field is Yes.

If the serialized item is lot-controlled, the lot from which the items are backflushed is based on the outbound method ( Last In First Out (LIFO) or First In First Out (FIFO)) as is specified in the Items - Warehousing (whwmd4500m000) details session.

Backflush Hours
If this check box is selected, you can backflush the hours spent to manufacture the item to the related employee.

Related topics

Backflush if Material
If this check box is selected, the item is backflushed when used as a component in the product structure of another item.

Serialized items

Serialized items can only be backflushed if in the Items - Warehousing (whwmd4500m000) details session the Serials in Inventory check box is cleared, and the Register Serial Issue During As Built field is Yes.

If the serialized item is lot-controlled, the lot from which the items are backflushed is based on the outbound method ( Last In First Out (LIFO), First In First Out (FIFO)) as is defined in the Items - Warehousing (whwmd4500m000) details session.

Direct Initiate Inventory Issue
If this check box is selected,, the warehouse order line for the material is automatically unblocked during production order release. Consequently, you are not required to run the Initiate Inventory Issue (tisfc0207m000) session to unblock the material.

If this check box is cleared,, and if the material is not backflushed, you must use the Initiate Inventory Issue (tisfc0207m000) session to unblock the material's warehouse order line.

Direct Proc Wh Order Line
If this check box is selected, the warehouse outbound procedure is automatically initiated, after material is unblocked in the warehouse.

If this check box is cleared, and you unblock warehouse order lines using the Initiate Inventory Issue (tisfc0207m000) session, the quantity to issue is added to the value specified in the To Issue by Warehousing field in the Material to Issue for Production Orders (ticst0101m100) details session. You must manually carry out the remainder of the warehousing procedure.

If you use the Initiate Inventory Issue (tisfc0207m000) session, warehouse order lines for the materials to issue are unblocked. You can also select the Direct Initiate Inventory Issue check box for the materials. Consequently, warehouse order lines are automatically unblocked when the production order is released.

Note

If the current item must be a low volume serialized item, this check box must be cleared.

Receipt Inspection
If this check box is selected, and the item produced is the end item, an inspection must be performed when the item is received in the warehouse.
Outbound Inspection
If this check box is selected, material is inspected when issued from a warehouse.
Critical for Inventory
If this check box is selected, you can check the availability of the item if used as material for the production order.
Standard To Order Item
The item that originates from a standard-to-order (STO) item. The bill of material and the routing are also derived from the original item.
Net Change JSC
If this check box is selected, a partial explosion and netting is defined during the regenerative replanning process. LN only replans the parts of scheduled JSC orders affected by the change in the bill of material and routing.
Item Production Text
If this check box is selected, item production text is present.
Subcontracting with Material Flow
If this check box is selected, only subcontracting with material flow is used to produce the item.
Note

This check box is displayed only if the Subcontracting with Material Flow check box is selected in the Implemented Software Components (tccom0100s000) session.

If the default supply source of the item is Assembly, this check box is unavailable.

Job Shop BOM
Customized
If this check box is selected, a standard item is configured or customized. The customized item either references a product variant, or a project code as part of the item code in case of standard-to-order (STO)/ engineered-to-order customization. By default, this check box is selected automatically for these configurations:

Job Shop Production Schedules
The production schedule of the job shop related repetitive items.

The item is a repetitive item if:

  • Produced in relatively large quantities.
  • Subject to repetitive demand.
  • The production is based on a rate.
  • The production is controlled through schedules.
  • The lead time is relatively short.

Anonymous items and to-order items can be repetitive. However, only to-order items that are standard-to-order (STO) can be used in RPT schedules. You cannot use generic item or engineering items in an RPT schedule.

Schedule Code
The code used to schedule the production of the repetitive item.
Note

The schedule code is mandatory. You can define schedule codes in the details session.

Rate Percentage for Enterprise Planning
The percentage that indicates the productivity of a work center on an assembly line. A work center cannot be fully productive, for instance, if the people for the assembly line are not available.

The rate factor for planning the estimated production rate per routing or a specific work center is calculated using this value. After the production rate is calculated for all operations, the operation with the lowest production rate is identified and the corresponding work center is the bottleneck work center.

This value is used to indicate how many units of a repetitive item must be planned for one planned production order in Enterprise Planning. For quantity that exceeds the original planned production order, a new planned production order is generated on the same date as the original.

Example

The rate of the work center is 80 pieces, and you receive a demand (such as a sales order) for 100 pieces. Enterprise Planning generates a planned purchase order for 80 pieces, and a second planned purchase order for 20 pieces. Both orders are assigned the same finish date.

Note

The rate percentage for planning must be greater than zero.
