| | Business Partners per Item (tdipu0110m300)Use this session to view the approved
business partners for an item. This session can be referenced from the Subcontracting Model (tisub1600m000) session, where it is displayed as a tab. The following
fields in the Subcontracting Model (tisub1600m000) session are used
to filter the appropriate selection of item-business partner combinations in
the current session: - Product (item), Subcontractor (buy-from business partner), and Ship-from Business Partner.
- Effective Date and Expiry Date; only combinations that are (partly)
valid within this period are displayed.
When you double-click a line, the Item - Purchase Business Partner (tdipu0110m000) session is started. Item The raw materials, subassemblies, finished products, and tools
that can be purchased, stored, manufactured, and sold. An item can also represent a set of items handled as one kit,
or which exist in multiple product variants. You can also define nonphysical items, which are not
retained in inventory but can be used to post costs or to invoice services to
customers. The examples of nonphysical items: - Cost items (for example, electricity)
- Service items
- Subcontracting services
- List items (menus/options)
Note In the Items (tcibd0501m000) session, you can define whether orders are issued for
an item according to a purchase schedule, and you can define a purchase
schedule type, based on which the orders are generated. If no purchase schedule
is in use for the item, you can still manually insert the item into a purchase push schedule. Buy-from Business Partner The business partner from whom you order goods or services;
this usually represents a supplier's sales department. The definition includes
the default price and discount agreements, purchase-order defaults, delivery
terms, and the related ship-from and invoice-from business partner. Default value When generating a purchase order, the searching logic LN uses to retrieve a
buy-from business partner is as follows: - From the Buy-from Business Partner field in the Items - Purchase (tdipu0101m000) session.
- From the Buy-from Business Partner in the Items - Purchase Business Partner (tdipu0110m000) session that is:
- Set to Single Source in the Items - Purchase Business Partner (tdipu0110m000) session.
- Linked to an Item in the Items - Purchase Business Partner (tdipu0110m000) session.
- From the Buy-from Business Partner in the Items - Purchase Business Partner (tdipu0110m000) session that is:
- Set to Preferred in the Preferred field of the Items - Purchase Business Partner (tdipu0110m000) session.
- Linked to an Item in the Items - Purchase Business Partner (tdipu0110m000) session.
- From the Buy-from Business Partner in the Items - Purchase Business Partner (tdipu0110m000) session that is:
- Set to Single Source in the Items - Purchase Business Partner (tdipu0110m000) session.
- Linked to an Item Group in the Items - Purchase Business Partner (tdipu0110m000) session.
- From the Buy-from Business Partner in the Items - Purchase Business Partner (tdipu0110m000) session that is:
- Set to Preferred in the Preferred field of the Items - Purchase Business Partner (tdipu0110m000) session.
- Linked to an Item Group in the Items - Purchase Business Partner (tdipu0110m000) session.
Note When a purchase order is generated by Enterprise Planning, LN skips step one. Ship-from Business Partner The business partner who ships the ordered goods to your
organization. This usually represents a supplier's distribution center or
warehouse. The definition includes the default warehouse at which you want to
receive the goods and if you want to inspect the goods, the carrier that takes
care of the transport, and the related buy-from business partner. Effective Date The first day on which a record or a setting is valid. The
effective date often includes the effective time. Expiry Date The last day on which a record is valid. If you do not specify
an expiry time, the validity expires at the end of the expiry date, at 24:00
hours. Preferred Use this field to indicate whether the business partner is
preferred or fixed for the item. Note When generating orders, LN first searches for
fixed purchase business partners and then for preferred purchase business
partners by the purchase business partners' priority, as defined in the Priority field of the current session. If you set the
current field to Single Source, and the single source purchase business
partner is not valid at the moment of planned delivery, or cannot deliver the
required demand, LN tries
to fulfill the demand with planned production orders or planned distribution
orders, following the strategy that you defined for the plan item. If you set
the current field to Preferred, and none of the buy-from business partners is
valid at the moment of planned delivery, or cannot deliver the required demand, LN generates a planned
purchase order for an empty purchase business partner. Item - Buy-from Business Partner status The status of the item - purchase business partner
combination. FAB Period The time period during which the supplier is authorized to
manufacture the goods required on a schedule, calculated from the schedule
issue date on for push schedules, and from the current date on for pull
forecast schedules. The fab period is expressed in a number of days. Example - CUM start quantity: 10000
- Schedule issue date/current date: 05.07.99
- Fab period: 20 days
| Issue/current date | Quantity | | 05.07.99 | 100 | | 12.07.99 | 100 | | 19.07.99 | 100 | | 26.07.99 | 100 |
Fab time fence : 05.07.99 (+ 20 days) = 25.07.99.
Fab authorization: 10000 + 100 + 100 + 100 = 10300.
RAW Period The time period during which the supplier is authorized to
procure the raw materials required on a schedule, calculated from the schedule
issue date on for push schedules, and from the current date on for pull
forecast schedules. The raw period is expressed in a number of days. Example - CUM start quantity: 10000
- Schedule issue date/current date: 05.07.99
- Raw period: 20 days
| Issue/current date | Quantity |
|---|
| 05.07.99 | 100 | | 12.07.99 | 100 | | 19.07.99 | 100 | | 26.07.99 | 100 |
Raw time fence : 05.07.99 (+ 20 days) = 25.07.99.
Raw authorization: 10000 + 100 + 100 + 100 = 10300.
Shipment or Receipt Based Specify on what date and time (schedule) requirements are
based. Note This field is defaulted to the Shipment/Receipt Based field of the Purchase Schedules (tdpur3110m000) session. Capacity Time Unit The time unit in which the ship-from business partner capacity
is expressed. Minimum Capacity Tolerance The minimum percentage that can stay below ship-from business
partner capacity. Priority An option that enables you to add a certain rating for
suppliers. If the priority is defined, the item/supplier combinations are
sorted according to descending priority. Allowed values The allowed values range from 1 (= highest priority) to 999
(= lowest priority). Maximum Capacity Tolerance The maximum percentage that can exceed ship-from business
partner capacity. Note Enterprise Planning uses this field when generating planned orders for a purchase
business partner. The maximum capacity tolerance is calculated as
follows: Maximum Capacity Tolerance * Supplier Capacity + Supplier Capacity Example - Supplier capacity: 100 pieces.
- Maximum capacity tolerance: 20 (percent).
- Capacity time unit: week.
Enterprise Planning takes into account that the purchase business partner can
only deliver a maximum number of 120 pieces a week. Business Partner Status The status assigned to the business partner, which determines
the actions that can be carried out for the business partner. For example, you cannot specify a sales order for a business
partner with status Prospect, or ship goods
to a business partner with status Inactive. Item Purchase Text If this check box is selected, a text is added that is
printed on external documents. Item Purchase Text (Internal) If this check box is selected, a text is added for
internal purposes only. Sourcing Percentage A percentage used to calculate how orders are divided among
suppliers. Calculated Lead Time (Days) The rough purchase item lead time expressed in days. The
calculated lead time is only used to determine the planned receipt date of
forecast demand for which no accurate determination of the planned receipt date
is yet required. The calculated lead time is based on the availability
type and calendar template that are linked to the following fields: - Supply Time
- Internal Processing Time
- Safety Time
- Transportation Time (Days)
Item Group A group of items with similar characteristics. Each item
belongs to a particular item group. The item group is used in combination with
the item type to set up item defaults. Blocking Reason The code that can be linked to the item - purchase business
partner combination to describe the reason for blocking. Invoice by Stage Payments If this check box is selected, stage payments must be used for the item-purchase business
partner combination. Default value The setting of this check box is defaulted to the Invoice by Stage Payments check box in the RFQ Responses (tdpur1506m000) and Purchase Order Lines (tdpur4101m000) sessions. Stage Payment Schedule Set If you use stage payments for the item-purchase business partner
combination, you can specify a default stage payment schedule in this field. If this field is specified, stage payment lines are
automatically generated when a record is saved in the RFQ Responses (tdpur1506m000) or Purchase Order Lines (tdpur4101m000) sessions that includes the item-purchase
business partner combination. Self-Billing If this check box is selected, you pay an invoice to
the purchase business partner without receiving an invoice for the item. As a
result the invoice for the item is self-billed by your company. Invoice after You can indicate when a self billed invoice can be generated. Self-Billing Date Type If the Self-Billing check box is selected, use this field to
define on which date the self-billing payments are based. Either the receipt date or the shipping date can be used as the invoice date on self-billed invoices. Self-Billing Method If the Self-Billing check box is selected, you must select a self-billing method, which determines how self-billing is
carried out. The self-billing method is used to determine the criteria
for composing the invoice, the invoicing interval, the output medium, etc. Item applicable for Retro-Billing If this check box is selected, retrobilling can be applied
to the item and purchase business partner. Default value The Retro-Billing Applicable check box in the Buy-from Business Partners (tccom4520m000) session. Standard Configuration If this check box is selected, the item - purchase
business partner combination is valid unless it has exceptions attached that define the
combination as not valid. If this check box is selected, and the purchase order
has no effectivity unit linked to it, the purchase business partner is
considered as valid. If this check box is cleared, Enterprise Planning considers the item - purchase business partner combination as not valid, unless
it has exceptions attached that define the combination as valid for the
effectivity unit of the purchase order. Note This check box is used to: - Determine whether an item - purchase business partner
combination is valid or not. However, the standard configuration can be
overruled by exceptions.
- Retrieve valid business partners to return them to Enterprise Planning during
the approved business partner selection process of order planning. During this
process, Enterprise Planning communicates the effectivity unit from the Sales Order Lines (tdsls4101m000) session or the Sales Quotation Lines (tdsls1501m000) session to Purchase Control (PUR). PUR then uses this check box to determine which purchase
business partners are valid for the item and can be returned to Enterprise Planning.
- Check the validity of the item - purchase business partner
combination when you manually insert a purchase order line to which an
effectivity unit is linked in the Purchase Order Lines (tdpur4101m000) session.
Default value By default, LN selects this check box if no exceptions are
attached to this item - purchase business partner combination. However, you can
manually select or clear this check box. Exceptions present If this check box is selected, the item - purchase
business partner combination has exceptions attached that can overrule the
standard configuration settings. Note This check box is used to: - Retrieve valid business partners to return them to Enterprise Planning during
the approved business partner selection process of order planning. During this
process, Enterprise Planning communicates the effectivity unit that is entered in the Sales Order Lines (tdsls4101m000), or the Sales Quotation Lines (tdsls1501m000) to Purchase Control (PUR). PUR then uses this check box to determine which purchase
business partners are valid for the item and can be returned to Enterprise Planning.
- Check the validity of the item - purchase business partner
combination when you manually insert a purchase order line to which an
effectivity unit is linked in the Purchase Order Lines (tdpur4101m000) session.
Default value LN selects this check box if exceptions are linked to this item - purchase
business partner combination in the Exceptions (tcuef0105m000) session. Purchase Office A department in your organization that is responsible for
buying the materials and services required by your organization. You assign
number groups to the purchase office. Manufacturer The default manufacturer for the item - business partner
combination. Note If the item is an MPN item, which you can define in the MPN Item field of the Items - Purchase (tdipu0101m000) session, this field is empty and disabled. For Commingling If this check box is selected, and the Commingling for check box is also selected for the relevant origin in the Purchase Order Parameters (tdpur0100m400) session, the item can be commingled for this buy-from
business partner. Base Unit The unit of measure in which the inventory of an item is
recorded, such as piece, kilogram, box of 12, or meter. The inventory unit is also used as the base unit in measure
conversions, especially for conversions that concern the order unit and the
price unit on a purchase order or a sales order. These conversions always use
the inventory unit as the base unit. An inventory unit therefore applies to all
item types, also to item types that cannot be kept in stock. Fixed Order Quantity The fixed order quantity expressed in the inventory unit. If an item's order method is Fixed Order Quantity, which you can define in the Method field of the Item - Ordering (tcibd2100m000) session, the value of the session's Fixed Order Quantity field is defaulted to the current field. If item
ordering data is not present, the default value is 1. Note - The value of this field must be a multiple of the Order Increment field.
- The value of this field must lie between the values of the Minimum and Maximum fields.
Performance aspects The setting of this field could affect system performance and database growth. For more information, refer to Fixed order quantity. Economic Order Quantity The economic order quantity expressed in the inventory unit. Note If the order method is Economic Order Quantity, the
economic order quantity is the most favourable quantity for planned purchase
orders. This order method is defined in the Item - Ordering (tcibd2100m000) session. Date Tolerance (-) The number of days early that a supplier can make a delivery. This tolerance is used only for pull call-off schedules. Date Tolerance (+) The number of days late that a supplier can make a delivery. This tolerance is used only for pull call-off schedules. Quantity Tolerance (-) The percentage that the received quantity may be less than the
ordered quantity. Default value LN retrieves the default value from the Quantity Tolerance (-) field of the Items - Purchase (tdipu0101m000) session. LN uses the Quantity Tolerance (-) to determine the default value of the Minimum Quantity Tolerance field in the Warehousing Orders (whinh2100m000) session as follows: Minimum Quantity Tolerance = 100 - Quantity Tolerance (-) Example| Quantity Tolerance (-) | = 10% | | Minimum Quantity Tolerance | = 100% - 10% = 90% | | Ordered quantity | 200 | In this case you do not accept receipts with a quantity less
than 180. Note This tolerance is used only for pull call-off schedules. Quantity Tolerance (+) The percentage that the received quantity is allowed to be more
than the ordered quantity. Default value LN retrieves the default value from the Quantity Tolerance (+) field of the Items - Purchase (tdipu0101m000) session. LN uses the Quantity Tolerance (+) to determine the default value of the Maximum Quantity Tolerance field in the Warehousing Orders (whinh2100m000) session as follows: Max. Quantity Tolerance = 100 + Quantity Tolerance (+) Example| Quantity Tolerance (-) | = 10% | | Minimum Quantity Tolerance | = 100% + 10% = 110% | | Ordered quantity | 200 | In this case you do not accept receipts with a quantity over
220. Note For push schedules, the tolerated over-receipt quantity is calculated as
follows: - If blanket warehouse orders are used, the ordered quantity of the entire schedule
is used for the calculation.
- If receipts are made in Purchase Control, the
ordered quantity of the schedule line yet to be received, is used for the
calculation.
The receipt quantity that exceeds the ordered quantity is
added to the last schedule line. Hard Stop on Quantity The way in which LN must react to a receipt that does not meet
the quantity tolerances. This field is defaulted to the Hard Stop on Quantity field of the Inbound Order Lines (whinh2110m000) session. Hard Stop on Date The way in which LN must react to a receipt that does not meet
the time tolerances. This field is defaulted to the Hard Stop on Time field of the Inbound Order Lines (whinh2110m000) session. Inspection If this check box is selected, actual deliveries must
be inspected. Note When you create a purchase order line for the item, by
default, the Inspection check
box in the Purchase Order Lines (tdpur4101m000) session receives the same value as the Inspection check box in the Items - Purchase Business Partner (tdipu0110m000) session. If no combination of item
and business partner is specified in the Items - Purchase Business Partner (tdipu0110m000) session, the Inspection check
box in the Purchase Order Lines (tdpur4101m000) session is selected only if the same check
box is also selected in the Ship-from Business Partner (tccom4121s000) and Item - Purchase (tdipu0601m000) sessions. Conformance Reporting The conformance reporting code linked to this combination of item and purchase business
partner. Note You can specify a conformance reporting code only if the Inspection check box is selected in this
session. Consigned If this check box is selected, the item on the purchase
schedule is consignment inventory. Note If you want to link the payment for a consumption of
consignment inventory directly to the replenishment schedule, do not select
this check box. Generate Freight Orders from Purchase If this check box is selected, freight orders must be
generated for purchase orders that contain this item - purchase business
partner combination. Default value The value of this check box is defaulted to the Generate Freight Orders from Purchase check box in
the Purchase Order Lines (tdpur4101m000) session and the Purchase Order Line Details (tdpur4101m200), but can be overwritten in these
sessions. Generate Order for Unexpected Warehouse Receipt If this check box is selected, and a warehouse receipt
has no corresponding inbound order, LN automatically creates a purchase order against
which the items are received for the purchase business partner. LN automatically: - Approves and releases the generated purchase order to Warehousing.
- Links the unexpected receipt line to the inbound order line
and confirms it.
Note You cannot select this check box if: Carrier/LSP An organization that provides transport services. You can link
a default carrier to both ship-to and ship-from business partners. In addition,
you can print sales and purchase orders on a packing list, sorted by
carrier. For ordering and invoicing, you must define a carrier as a
business partner. Subject to Trade Compliance If this check box is selected, global trade compliance applies to the item and purchase business partner. Note This field is available only if the Import Compliance check box is selected in the Global Trade Compliance Parameters (tcgtc0100m000) session. Internal Processing Time The time required between the recognition of needs and the
release of the purchase order. Internal processing time includes document
preparation and sourcing. If purchase schedules are automatically generated by Enterprise Planning for an
internal business partner, this field is used in the purchase business partner
selection process. Enterprise Planning uses this field, together with the Safety Time field and the Supply Time field, to assign a priority to purchase business partners who can
deliver the required item. Safety Time The time that you can add to the normal lead time to protect
delivery of goods against fluctuations in the lead time so that an order can be
completed before the order's real need date. If purchase schedules are automatically generated by Enterprise Planning for an
internal business partner, this field is used in the purchase business partner
selection process. Enterprise Planning uses this field, together with the Internal Processing Time field and the Supply Time field, to assign a priority to purchase business partners who can
deliver the required item. Safety Time Unit The unit in which the safety time is expressed. Supply Time The total time required to obtain an item that is forecasted.
This time is used to calculate an item's order lead time, based on which a
company takes commitment decisions and executes capacity planning and order
management. Example For item A, the supplier communicated a supply
time of 50 days. This is in fact a reduced lead time and is only
possible because a three year forecast is sent to the supplier for this item.
If additional quantities are needed, which are not included in the forecast,
the supplier needs the full supply time, which is 300
days. If purchase schedules are automatically generated by Enterprise Planning for an
internal business partner, this field is used in the purchase business partner
selection process. Enterprise Planning uses this field, together with the Internal Processing Time field and the Safety Time field, to assign a priority to purchase business partners who can
deliver the required item. Supply Time Unit The unit in which the supply time is expressed. Full Supply Time The total time required to obtain an item that is not
forecasted. This time is used to calculate the full cumulative order lead time
for an item, which includes the cumulative lead time of purchased
parts. Example For item A, the supplier communicated a supply
time of 50 days. This is in fact a reduced lead time and is only
possible because a three year forecast is sent to the supplier for this item.
If additional quantities are needed, which are not included in the forecast,
the supplier needs the full supply time, which is 300
days. Full Supply Time Unit The unit in which the full supply time is expressed. Note This field is only visible if the Use Full Supply Time check box is selected in the Procurement Parameters (tdpur0100m000) session. Transportation Time (Days) The transportation time in days, which can be calculated in two
ways. LN retrieves the transportation time as follows: - If Freight is implemented, which you can define in the Implemented Software Components (tccom0500m000) session, calculation of the
transportation time is based on carrier, and routes. Route plans and service levels are not known at this point in time.
LN performs the following steps to retrieve the
transportation time. - If the route, the carrier, the origin, and the
destination addresses are known, LN first searches for route plans and then for standard routes with matching routes, carriers, and
addresses.
- If more than one matching route plan or standard route
is found, LN selects the
route plan or standard route with a transport means group that matches the transport means
group of the carrier.
- If LN still finds more than one route plan or
standard route, route plans have priority over standard routes. If only
standard routes are found, the standard route is selected following the
settings of the Carrier/LSP Selection Criterion parameter in the Freight Planning Parameters (fmlbd0100m000) session.
- If LN still finds more than one route plan, it
selects the first one it encounters in the database.
- If Freight is not implemented, LN takes the
transportation time between the ship-from business partner's address and the
receiving warehouse's address, based on a relevant distance table (if
available) in the Distance Table by City (tccom4137s000) session or in the Distance Table by ZIP Code/Postal Code (tccom4138s000) session. From which of these two sessions the
transportation time is retrieved, depends on the value of the Usage Distance Tables field in the COM Parameters (tccom0000s000) session.
Calculated Full Lead Time (Days) The rough purchase item lead time expressed in days. The
calculated lead time is only used to determine the planned receipt date of
forecast demand for which no accurate determination of the planned receipt date
is yet required. The calculated lead time is based on the availability
type and calendar template that are linked to the following fields: - Supply Time
- Internal Processing Time
- Safety Time
- Transportation Time (Days)
Inbound Lead Time The time interval between the arrival of the items and the
actual storage in the warehouse. Default value This field is defaulted from the Inbound Lead Time field of the Item Data by Warehouse (whwmd2110s000) session. In this session, this field is displayed for information
purposes only. Inbound Lead Time Unit The unit in which the inbound lead time is expressed. Default value This field is defaulted from the Item Data by Warehouse (whwmd2110s000) session. Lead Time Horizon (Days) The number of days that, together with the current
date/generation date, determines whether: - LN uses the calculated lead time to determine the planned receipt date. LN uses this calculation
when the date for which the lead time is calculated, falls outside the lead
time horizon. Planned dates are calculated using the value from the Calculated Lead Time (Days) field, which is derived from
the company's calendar.
- LN determines the planned receipt date, taking into account the calendars that are
related to the lead time components. LN uses this calculation when the date for
which the lead time is calculated, lies between the current date and the lead
time horizon.
Schedule Type The type of purchase schedule, which can be push schedule or pull schedule. Default value This value is retrieved from the Items (tcibd0501m000) session. Transaction Time Fence This field indicates for which purchase schedule lines
inventory transactions must be logged in the Warehouse Orders module
of Warehousing, and
financial transactions must be logged in the General Ledger module,
and the Accounts Payable module of Financials. Irrespective of the chosen parameter: - Inventory transactions and financial transactions are
always logged for pull call-off schedules.
- No transactions are logged for pull forecast schedules. As
a result, this parameter is only related to push schedules and not to pull schedules.
Note Even if a purchase schedule line falls outside the FAB
period, transactions are still logged for the schedule line as soon as its
requirement type becomes Firm. Performance aspects The setting of this field could affect system performance and database growth. For more information, refer to Transaction time fence. Segment Set for Material Release The segment set that is related to a material release. Note - A segment set for material release is only used in push schedules and pull forecast schedules. For pull call-off schedules, no
segment sets are used ( pull schedules).
- If the value of the Release Type field is Shipping Schedule Only or Sequence Shipping Schedule Only, you cannot enter a segment set in this field.
Default value The Segment Set for Material Release from the Purchase Schedule Parameters (tdpur0100m500) session. Segment Set for Shipping Schedule The segment set that is related to a shipping schedule. Note - A segment set for shipping schedule is only used in push schedules. For pull schedules, this segment set is not used.
- If the value of the Release Type field is Material Release, you cannot enter a segment set in this field.
Default value The Segment Set for Shipping Schedule from the Purchase Schedule Parameters (tdpur0100m500) session. Issue Pattern for Material Release The pattern used to determine the issue date for material releases. Note - An issue pattern for material releases is only used in push schedules and pull forecast schedules. In case of pull call-off
schedules, no issue patterns are used ( pull schedules).
- If the value of the Release Type field is Shipping Schedule Only or Sequence Shipping Schedule Only, you cannot enter an issue pattern in this
field.
Default value The Issue Pattern for Material Release from the Purchase Schedule Parameters (tdpur0100m500) session. Issue Pattern for Shipping Schedule The pattern used to determine the issue date for shipping schedules. Note - An issue pattern for shipping schedules is only used for push schedules. In case of pull schedules, this issue pattern is not used.
- If the value of the Release Type field is Material Release, you cannot enter an issue pattern in this field.
Default value The Issue Pattern for Shipping Schedule from the Purchase Schedule Parameters (tdpur0100m500) session. Frozen Period for Increasing Quantity The number of days, calculated from the current date, for which
you can no longer increase the quantity of required items. If the purchase schedule is Shipment Based, which you can define in the Shipment or Receipt Based field of the current
session, frozen time limits are based on planned shipment dates. If the schedule is Receipt Based, frozen time limits are based on planned receipt dates. Frozen Period for Decreasing Quantity The number of days, calculated from the current date, for which
you can no longer reduce the quantity of required items. If the purchase schedule is Shipment Based, which you can define in the Shipment or Receipt Based field of the current session, frozen
time limits are based on planned shipment dates. If the schedule is Receipt Based, frozen time limits are based on planned receipt dates. Use Working Days for Frozen Period If this check box is selected, only working days are
used when calculating frozen periods. If this check box is cleared, calendar days are used
when calculating frozen periods. Note If this check box is selected, the specified number of
working days is added to the current date. The working days are retrieved from
the calendar that is linked to the ship-from business
partner, the buy-from business partner, or the company. If this check box is cleared, the specified number of
calendar days is added to the current date. When planning the dates, the availability type from the Procurement Parameters (tdpur0100m000) session is used. Delete Past Schedule Lines This check box determines how to handle undelivered and
redundant quantities on schedule lines with dates in the past. If this check box is selected, the schedule lines are
deleted by Enterprise Planning. If this check box is cleared, planning messages are
generated informing a planner to manually delete the schedule lines. Note This check box can be selected only if the Frozen Period for Decreasing Quantity is zero in the
current session. Release Type Use this field to indicate what schedule release type is used, based on which an EDI message is sent. This message is indicated by the used schedule. Note Sequence Shipping Schedule Only can only be selected if
the Preferred field is set to Single Source and the schedule is a pull schedule. Communication Channel The way in which purchase releases must be communicated to the business partner. Release EDI Message Directly If the Communication Channel field is set to EDI and this check
box is selected, EDI messages are prepared when a purchase release receives the status Scheduled in the Purchase Releases (tdpur3120m000) session. If this check box is cleared, you can prepare EDI
messages by selecting the Prepare EDI messages check box in the Print Purchase Releases (tdpur3422m000) session. Note - Electronic Commerce can only send the generated EDI messages to the purchase
business partner if the status of the purchase release in the Purchase Releases (tdpur3120m000) session is Scheduled. If the status is Created, the messages are not sent until the status
becomes Scheduled.
- At the moment Electronic Commerce sends the EDI messages to the
purchase business partner, a purchase release receives the status Sent.
Authorizations If this check box is selected, authorizations are used
and calculated. Authorizations for the schedule are updated in the FAB/RAW Authorizations (tdpur3534m000) session as soon as: - A purchase release gets the status Sent.
- The cumulatives are reset in the Reset Cumulatives (tdpur3230m000) session.
