Item Order Plan (cprrp0520m000)

Use this session to get a time-phased overview of your order planning, which lists overview values for demand and forecast on the one hand, and scheduled receipts (actual orders) and planned supply (planned orders) on the other. Select the Simulate field to change the above values and see what the results are for the projected inventory.

The order quantities of the orders that fall in one period are added up. You can select one of several sets of predefined period lengths. Instead of selecting a time period, you can also choose to display a detailed overview in which each order is listed separately.

If you click the Change Company command, you zoom to the Change Company (cpcom1200s000) session. Here you can switch to a different logistical company.

Note
  • If you have started this session by zooming, you can only find and select a record.
  • The horizon of the item order plan is equal to the planning horizon, because you must be able to see an order when it is moved from the item master plan to a planned order before you release it.
  • If the planned item with supply source Repetitive includes demand with different project pegs (different customers or locations), you must generate different production schedules for each peg.

If you move the production plan or the purchase plan to planned orders with the Convert Master Plan to Planned Orders (cprmp2240m000) session, the resulting orders have the order type Production Plan and Purchase Plan in the current session.

 

Scenario

This code indicates that LN displays the item order plan for the actual scenario.

Plan Item

An item with the order system Planned.

The production, distribution, or purchase of these items is planned in Enterprise Planning based on the forecast or the actual demand.

You can plan these items by means of the following:

  • Master-based planning, which is similar to master production scheduling techniques.
  • Order-based planning, which is similar to material-requirements planning techniques.
  • A combination of master-based planning and order-based planning.

Plan items can be one of the following:

  • An actual manufactured or purchased item.
  • A product family.
  • A basic model, that is, a defined product variant of a generic item.

A group of similar plan items or families is called a product family. The items are aggregated to give a more general plan than the one devised for individual items. A code displayed by the item code's cluster segment shows that the plan item is a clustered item that is used for distribution planning.

Project
Element
Activity
Horizons
Order Horizon

The date to which the order horizon extends.

You can specify the order horizon in the Items - Planning (cprpd1100m000) session.

Planning Horizon

The date to which the planning horizon extends.

You can specify the planning horizon in the Items - Planning (cprpd1100m000) session.

Whenever you move a plan to planned orders, you must be able to see the orders before you transfer them to execution level. This is why the item order plan uses the planning horizon. If the item does not have an item master plan, the planning horizon is equal to the order horizon.

CTP Horizon

The date until which LN performs ATP and CTP checks.

The ATP horizon is expressed as a number of working days during which LN can carry out ATP and CTP checks. Beyond the ATP/CTP horizon, LN does not check ATP or CTP: all customer orders are accepted.

Time Fence

The date to which the time fence extends.

You can specify the time fence in the Items - Planning (cprpd1100m000) session.

Forecast Time Fence

The date to which the forecast time fence extends.

You can specify the forecast time fence in the Items - Planning (cprpd1100m000) session.

Note

The forecast time fence is only used if the item has an item master plan.

Net Change Date

The net change date for order planning (see the Items - Planning (cprpd1100m000) session).

General
Planner

The employee or department responsible for planning the production, purchase and distribution of items. The planner takes into account the inventory levels, availability of materials, and capacities of resources, and reacts on signals such as rescheduling messages that LN generates.

Actual Supply Source

The actual supply source of the item.

If you define a date effectivity line in the Date-Effective Supply Source (tcibd0510m000) session, the actual source can be time-dependent.

Inventory on Hand

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

Standard Cost

The sum of the following item costs as calculated by the standard cost calculation code:

  • Material costs
  • Operational costs
  • Surcharges

Prices that are calculated against other price simulation codes are simulated prices. The standard cost is used for simulation purposes and in transactions when no actual price is available.

Standard cost is also an inventory valuation method for accounting purposes.

Note

LN retrieves the value of the current field from the Standard Cost field in the Item - Costing (ticpr0107m000) session.

Overview
Date

The end date and time of the period.

The displayed periods are defined by the period length (specified in the Scenario field) and the start date of the scenario. The first displayed period starts on the start date of the scenario. The last displayed period is determined by the planning horizon. The period in which the planning horizon falls is the last displayed period.

Note

If you chose the Detail option in the Scenario field, the last displayed line is the last order that occurs in the order horizon.

Simulate

You can use this field to enter additional demand or an additional supply of the selected plan item.

  • You can simulate an additional demand by entering a negative quantity.
  • You can simulate an additional scheduled receipt or an additional planned supply by entering a positive quantity.

If you want to see the results of the simulation, click the Initialize, Roll, and Update Scenario button.

Note

During simulation the fields Planned Available and ATP are updated.

Order Type

The order type of the order involved.

Allowed values

Kind of Order

Order Number

This field is filled when you choose a detailed overview, or the period of the planned inventory movements contains only one order. This field contains the order number.

Order Status

The status assigned to a planned order in Enterprise Planning.

The order status can either be:

  • Planned
  • Firm Planned
  • Confirmed

Allowed values

Order Status

Demand

The demand for the plan item expressed in the number of items.

Note

If the Scenario field has the value Detail, you can see where the demand originates in the Order Number field and the Order Type field on the Detail tab.

Supply

The sum of the scheduled receipts and the planned receipt.

Planned Available

The expected inventory level at the end of a plan period.

Note that the projected inventory of plan periods that are entirely in the past equals the inventory on hand.

ATP

Available-to-promise (ATP) calculated based on the content Planned Available field in this session.

Note

The calculation of ATP in this session does not take into account:

  • The Total Demand field content in the calculation outright. The forecast content can be added to the Planned Available content.
  • The ATP value for a specific period in the item order plan is the minimum value of the Planned Available and Total Demand fields for that specific period and all the next periods.
  • The available-to-promise values in the item order plan are dependant on the level of detail provided. When viewing the item order plan in detail mode, each change in the Planned Available quantity has an impact on the available-to-promise in the previous periods, even if the change is temporary.

In this session a limited version of the ATP calculation is implemented based on the data in the Planned Available field. The calculation logic:

  • Available to promise does not include forecast data, however this data is included in the Planned Available quantities.
  • The ATP value of a specific period in the item order plan is the minimum value of Planned Available and forecast for that specific periods and all the next periods.

The values of the ATP in the Item Order Plan (cprrp0520m000) session are not always equal to the quantities that are calculated during the ATP check executed during the sales order entry, or reported by the ATP Handling (cprrp4800m000) session. The difference can be due to:

  • The Item Order Plan (cprrp0520m000) session uses different time periods (daily time buckets) compared to those defined for the ATP check.
  • The Item Order Plan (cprrp0520m000) session shows the combined ATP of both the item and its derivative.
  • The order horizon is different from the item ATP horizon.
  • The Item Order Plan (cprrp0520m000) session is used to simulate additional supply quantities, which are reflected in the ATP results.
  • The item order plan defined in the Item Order Plan (cprrp0520m000) session doesn't use CTP options, which are used during the ATP check performed in the ATP Handling (cprrp4800m000) session.
