This field is for information only.

Inventory on Hand

The physical quantity of goods in one or more warehouses (including the inventory on hold).

LN updates the inventory on hand if items are received or issued.

Note

LN automatically updates the overall inventory on hand for each item throughout all warehouses. The overall inventory on hand is displayed in the Item Inventory (whwmd4100m100) session.

Inventory Blocked

A quantity of goods that is blocked. On-hold inventory can arise when the location, the lot, the zone, or the stock point is blocked. You can block inventory for various reasons, for example, for inspection or cycle-counting.

If a location has been blocked for all transactions, the blocked quantity is equal to the inventory on hand. You cannot partially block the inventory at a location.

Inventory Blocked for Planning

The quantity excluded from planning. The items exist but are unavailable for planning.

Economic Stock

The economic stock of the item for the current warehouse.

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.

Inventory control is based on a number of decision rules, which determine when, and in what quantity an item is ordered. This depends on the order method and the values of the following fields in the current session:

  • Reorder Point
  • Economic Order Quantity
  • Fixed Order Quantity
  • Order Interval
  • Maximum Inventory

If the reorder point and the economic order quantity are specified, recommended orders to replenish the stock are generated as soon as the economic stock falls below the reorder point.

The order quantity can be fixed or variable, depending of the values specified for the Fixed Order Quantity and Maximum Inventory fields.

If you also specify an order interval, orders are not generated the moment the economic stock falls below the reorder point, but LN checks at fixed points in time whether the economic order quantity has fallen below the reorder point. If yes, LN generates a recommended order.

Note

The reorder point is updated in the Global Update of Inventory Parameters (whina2200m000) session. If the Update Inventory/Order Data check box in this session is selected for the item concerned, the reorder point is updated.

Inventory Unit

The inventory unit in which the item is stored.

Customer Owned Blocked

The quantity of blocked inventory that is customer owned.

Customer Owned Blocked for Planning

The total customer owned inventory quantity that is considered unavailable from Enterprise Planning perspective.
