If this check box is selected, inventory shortages are
printed for all production orders in the JSC order group that you select.
Print Shortages by Production Order (tisfc0418m000)Use this session to check whether the material that is required for a production order is available in time. Knowing whether sufficient material is available at the moment you start working on a production order is essential. An availability check is especially useful in production environments where material supply is a bottleneck. An availability check can help you to do the following:
The planned inventory transactions and the inventory data are the basis for the shortage report. For a production order that you want to start on a specific date, the inventory receipts and issues of the required material are taken into account. On the other hand, planned production orders that consume the same material are considered. To choose you can select the Include Projected Inventory check box, whether you only want to take the actual inventory into account or also the planned inventory receipts/issues. If multiple production orders require the same material, the orders will use up the available material in the order of the allocation dates. Only planned inventory transactions that are very likely to occur are taken into account. The following planned inventory transactions are ignored:
The following warehouses are taken into account:
Note The requirements of various effectivity units are not taken into account in this session. Ideally you do not have material shortages. However, shortages occur if the material supply does not go according to plan. Material shortages can be caused by the following reasons:
Pessimistic analysis of material supply If you expect your suppliers and/or MRP to be unreliable you can best make a pessimistic analysis of the material supply. To make a pessimistic analysis, select the following check boxes:
and issues are not taken into account when analyzing the production orders' material supply. Select this check box if you expect materials to be late, or the quantities to be insufficient. Note that you must select the Include Projected Inventory check box before you can select the Ignore Scheduled Receipts check box.
Optimistical analysis of material supply For a more optimistical analysis of the production orders' material supply, select the following check box:
Lots If you are using lot control, and you want to check if inventory is available for the same lot as your item you must:
If you use these settings and insufficient inventory of the lot item is available, the report shows the details of the inventory shortage. If you are not using lots, these settings generate a report with details for all inventory shortages. Note
Production Order Group If this check box is selected, inventory shortages are
printed for all production orders in the JSC order group that you select. Production Order Group Enter the range of JSC order groups that contain the production
orders whose inventory shortages you want to print. You must first select the Production Order Group check box. JSC Order Group Enter the range of JSC order groups that contain the production
orders whose inventory shortages you want to print. You must first select the Production Order Group check box. Date of Production Production orders with a production start date that falls
within this range are checked for material shortages. Date of Production Production orders with a production start date that falls
within this range are checked for material shortages. Print Planned Receipts If this check box is selected, LN prints a list of planned purchase receipts,
planned production receipts, and transfers with corresponding delivery dates,
along with the shortage list. These lists help you to assess how serious the
shortages are, and to set your priorities for material requisition. Note Although the calculation of the total shortage takes all firm-planned inventory transactions into account, this list only shows the planned transactions for production and purchase. Print Total Warehouses in Cluster If this check box is selected, all warehouses (normal
and WIP) in a cluster are checked for inventory when analyzing material
shortages. If a shortage occurs in a specific warehouse, the shortage can be
solved by warehouse transfers. Include Projected Inventory If this check box is selected, the actual inventory
that is physically present in the warehouse(s) as well as the inventory that
will be consumed by planned production orders is taken into account when
analyzing material shortages for the selected production orders. Ignore Scheduled Receipts If you expect your suppliers and/or forecasts to be unreliable
you can best make a pessimistical analysis of the material supply. You can do
this by selecting this check box. If this check box is selected, the expected and planned material receipts and issues are not taken into account when analyzing material shortages. Select this check box if you expect materials to be late, or the quantities to be insufficient. You can also use the Ignore Blocked Inventory check box to make a pessimistical analysis of the material supply. The inventory that is blocked for inspection is not taken into account for analyzing the production orders' material supply. Select the Ignore Blocked Inventory check box if you expect the material quality to be poor. Note You must select the Include Projected Inventory check box before you can select the Ignore Scheduled Receipts check box. Ignore Blocked Inventory If this check box is selected, the inventory that is
blocked for inspection is not taken into account for analyzing the production
orders' material supply. Select this check box if you expect the material
quality to be poor. If you expect your suppliers and/or forecasts to be unreliable you can best make a pessimistical analysis of the material supply. To make a pessimistic analysis select this check box. You can also use the Ignore Scheduled Receipts check box to do a pessimistical analysis of the material supply. In that case, the expected and planned material receipts and issues are not taken into account when analyzing material shortages. Select this check box if you expect materials to be late or the quantities to be insufficient. Simulate Upto Date If this check box is selected, you can enter a date in
the date field. This date determines up to which date the planned inventory is
taken into account when analyzing material shortages. Simulate Upto Date The date up to which the planned inventory is taken into
account when analyzing material shortages. Note You can only enter a date if you selected the Simulate Upto Date check box. Min. Inventory Usually, a material is in short supply if the material's
inventory is less than 0 (zero). Example If you require four pieces of material for a production order, and you have four on hand, you have a sufficient amount of materials. If your requirements are five pieces of material, then you have a shortage of one, because 4 - 5 < 0. However, if the inventory is inaccurate, the quantity of materials in inventory can be more or less than you expected. Example You require four pieces of material for a production order. You expect, after you run the Print Shortages by Production Order (tisfc0418m000) session, to have four pieces in inventory. However, because of inaccuracy only two pieces of material are available in inventory. You now have an unexpected shortage of two. This type of unexpected shortage can be very disruptive during production. You can use the Min. Inventory field to enter a value that accounts for any inaccuracy in inventory. You can also enter a value in this field if you need a margin because you are not sure about the required quantity of materials. Example If you enter 2 in the Min. Inventory field, a shortage is already determined if the following is valid: Note Be cautious in entering a value in the Min. Inventory field because of the following:
Upto Date The date up to which the planned purchase and production
receipts are printed. Include Actual Shortages If this check box is selected, only the inventory that
is physically present in the warehouse(s) is taken into account when analyzing
material shortages for the selected production orders. The material in
inventory that will be consumed by planned production orders is not taken into
account. Sort by The order in which production orders are printed on the report. Sort by Warehouse If this check box is selected, LN only checks the inventory in the warehouse
that you specified for a material in the Warehouse field in
the Estimated Materials (ticst0101m000) session. If a production order has multiple material lines for the same material in various warehouses, the total demand is calculated by warehouse, and subsequently compared to the inventory for each warehouse. If this check box is cleared, LN checks the total inventory in all warehouses. If a production order has multiple material lines for the same material in various warehouses, the total demand is calculated and subsequently compared to the total inventory.
