Transfer Order Planning (cppat1210m000)

Use this session to to transfer planned orders from Enterprise Planning to the execution level. You can also transfer production plan and purchase plan.

General procedure

Origin of the transferred orders

You can transfer order from the actual scenario only. The types of planned supply that can be transferred:

  • Planned production orders
  • Production plan
  • Purchase plan
  • Planned purchase orders
  • Planned distribution orders
  • Planned cost peg transfers (as in session Planned Cost Peg Transfers (cprrp0130m000))

Destination of the transferred orders

  • Planned production orders and production plans are translated to production order in the Job Shop Control module in Manufacturing.
  • Planned purchase orders and purchase plans are translated to purchase orders in Procurement.
  • Planned distribution orders for single-company distribution are translated to warehouse orders in the Warehouse Orders module in Warehousing.
  • Planned distribution orders for multicompany distribution are translated to purchase orders in Procurement.
  • Cost Peg Transfers (as in session Project Cost Peg Transfers (whinh1140m000))

 

Actual Scenario

The scenario that contains the operational master plan or order plan, as opposed to scenarios used only for simulation, that is, what-if analysis.

The actual scenario is the only scenario from which you can transfer planned orders to the execution level.

LN only transfers planned orders for the actual scenario.

Selection
Transfer
Planned Order Group

If this check box is selected, Enterprise Planning transfers the production-order group that you specify in the Planned Order Group field, which is one of the Production data.

If you select this check box, the other options in the order selection group become unavailable.

Note

You can create a production-order group in the Create Order Group for Planned Orders (cppat3250m000) session.

Purchase

If this check box is selected, LN transfers the planned purchase orders for the selected plan items to the Purchase Control module.

Cost Peg Transfers

If this check box is selected, LN transfers the cost peg transfers for the selected items with the status Planned.

Job Shop

If this check box is selected, LN transfers the selected range of planned production orders (for the selected items) to the Job Shop Control module.

Note

If this check box is selected, LN does not transfer planned production orders that belong to an order group.

Purchase Plan

If this check box is selected, LN converts the purchase plan of the specified plan item range to planned purchase orders, and transfers these purchase orders to Procurement.

The order quantity of the planned purchase orders that LN creates depends on the values you defined in the Maximum Order Quantity field and the Minimum Order Quantity field in the Item - Ordering (tcibd2100m000) session, and the planned requirement date of the purchase order is equal to the start date of the plan period in which the purchase plan is defined.

Although the planned purchase orders that LN creates have the order status Planned, you do not have to check the Transfer Status Planned as Well check box to transfer planned purchase orders derived from a purchase plan to execution level.

Note

If the transfer process of the planned purchase orders fails, LN does not convert the planned purchase orders back into a purchase plan. The planned purchase orders that LN was able to create remain to exist.

Production Plan

If this check box is selected, LN converts the production plan of the specified plan item range to planned production orders, and transfers these production orders to the Job Shop Control module of Manufacturing.

The planned requirement date of the planned production orders that LN creates is equal to the start date of the plan period in which the production plan is defined.

Although the planned production orders that LN creates have the order status Planned, you do not have to check the Transfer Status Planned as Well check box to transfer planned production orders derived from a production plan to execution level.

Note

If the transfer process of the planned production orders fails, LN does not convert the planned production orders back into a production plan. The planned production orders that LN was able to create remain to exist.

Distribution

If this check box is selected, LN transfers the planned distribution orders for the selected plan items to purchase orders in Procurement, or to warehousing order in the Warehouse Orders module in Warehousing.

You can specify a range of planned orders and a range of supplying companies.

On the Purchase/Distribute tab, you can:

  • Define a range of planned distribution orders.
  • Specify a range of logistical companies that are involved in multicompany transactions in the Supply Chain Relationships From and To field.
  • Specify the purchase order type and the production order series for multicompany distribution orders that LN transfers to purchase orders.

Workload Control
Transfer Until Workload

This field determines whether LN must apply workload constraints that limit the order transfer.

Yes

LN transfers a limited number of production orders, to ensure that the workload of the selected resources does not exceed certain limits.

No

The set of transferred orders is not limited by workload constraints or by a selection of resources.

Only

LN transfers a limited number of production orders, to ensure that the workload of the selected resources does not exceed certain limits.

In addition, LN transfers only those production orders that utilize the capacity of the resources in the selection range. You can use this value when the workload of certain resources is too low.

Resource

If you selected Yes or Only in the Transfer Until Workload field, you can specify a range of resources in the Resource From and To field.

LN only transfers planned production orders that use the specified resources.

In addition, for each resource in the specified range, LN takes into account workload constraints, such as:

  • The planned order data that you select in the Priority Rule field.
  • The percentage that you specify in the Workload Norm Perc. field.
Priority Rule

If the workload is too high, LN cannot transfer all production orders.

This field determines which criterion LN uses to select production orders for transfer if the workload is too high.

Priority Rule

Workload Norm Perc.

Specify the percentage to modify the effective workload norm for the specified range of resources.

You can define the workload norm and the workload tolerance of a resource in the Resources (cprpd2100m000) session.

Example

Workload Norm: 50 hours Workload Tolerance: 20% Workload Norm Percentage : 90%

A workload of 20% in excess of 50 hours is 60 hours.

LN will transfer production orders until a workload of 54 hours (90% of 60).

Note

The workload tolerance is not relevant for the transfer of planned orders.

Purchase
Planned Purchase Orders

Specify the first of a range of planned purchase orders that LN must transfer to the execution level.

Purchase Order Type

The purchase-order type for the multicompany distribution orders.

Specify the order type of the purchase orders to which LN transfers multicompany distribution orders.

Note

When the field is blank, LN gives an error message.

Procurement uses the first free number from this series.

Retain Buyer

If this check box is selected, they buyer code is active and will be retained through transfer to order management.

Note

Only visible when the Allow Buyer Assignment on Planned Purchase Order parameter is checked.

Generate Request for Quotation

This check box determines what happens if LN is unable to generate an actual purchase order for a particular planned purchase order.

If this check box is selected, LN transfers such a planned purchase order to a request for quotation (RFQ).

If this check box is cleared, LN does not transfer the planned purchase order in question. This means that it remains a planned purchase order.

RFQ Series

View which series the request for quotation belongs to.

Distribution
Planned Distribution Orders

Specify the first of a range of planned distribution orders that LN must transfer to the execution level.

Supply Chain Relationships

Specify the first of a range of logistical companies that are involved in a multicompany supply structure.

LN takes into account the specified companies to transfer multicompany distribution orders.

The type of order that LN generates depends on the setting of the Default Order Type Multi Company Supply field in the Intercompany Trade Parameters (tcitr0100m000) session.

Transfer Multicompany Distribution Order

Select the type of multicompany distribution order.

Allowed values

  • Purchase Order
  • Warehouse Transfer
Purchase Order Type

The purchase order type of the purchase orders to which the multicompany distribution orders are transferred.

When the field is empty, LN gives an error message.

Purchase Order Series

The purchase order series for the purchase orders to which LN transfers multi company distribution orders.

Warehouse Order Type

Use this field to specify the Warehouse Order Type (as in session Warehousing Order Types (whinh0110m000)) for the Warehousing order that will be created.

Note

This field is only visible when this session is started via appropriate menu for one selected planned distribution order. This is because when multiple orders are selected, they can have different warehouses, which makes it unlikely that one warehouse order type is a good choice for all the selected planned orders.

When multiple planned distribution order are selected, one of the following applies:

  • The session is started stand-alone.
  • The field is left empty.

    The system will take a default Warehouse Order Type, as defined in session Default Order Types by Origin (whinh0120m000).

Different from/to warehouses lead to different defaults for different planned orders.
