Requirement Date

The date, or period for which the check is performed.

Regenerate Order Lists

When you run this session, lists of orders are created for each combination of the dates and assembly parts specified when shortages for his combination exist.

If this check box is selected, LN deletes any existing order list for each combination of day and assembly part, in the specified range, new lists replace the existing ones.

Note: If no new list can be generated for a specific assembly part and requirement date combination, the old lists are still deleted.

If this check box is cleared, LN compares the new lists to the existing ones. Lists are replaced if new orders are found, and new lists are added if new dates and assembly part shortages are found. Orders on existing lists are not deleted, even when they are outdated, the updates are always partial. Use this option only for performance reasons, if you will be running checks one after another.

Select Orders Based On

Select the set of criteria LN has to consider, if it has to choose out of several orders which to add to the list. The orders with the lowest priority are selected first.

There are two sets of criteria: Planned Offline Date and Assembly Order Status. Both sets consist of four criteria. All criteria are listed as fields in the Assembly Part Shortage - Assembly Orders (tiasc2545m000) session. The sets differ in the order of their second and third criterion. The criteria of these sets, in their order of priority are:

Planned Offline Date

  1. Blocked (Yes has priority over No)
  2. Planned offline date (an earlier date has priority over a later date)
  3. Status (Sequenced has priority over Planned)
  4. Demand type (Sales Order has priority over Pseudo Order)

Assembly Order Status

  1. Blocked (Yes has priority over No)
  2. Status (Sequenced has priority over Planned)
  3. Planned offline date (an earlier date has priority over a later date)
  4. Demand type (Sales Order has priority over Pseudo Order)

Note

  • The first criterion is used differently from the other three. All blocked orders, for a certain combination of requirement date and assembly part, are always selected. If this is not sufficient to meet the total shortage quantity, the other three criteria are used to select other orders, until the shortage quantity is reached.
  • The planned offline date relates the offline date of the parent order.
  • The criteria are listed in sequence of their priority, but the list of orders is displayed in reverse order: The lowest priority orders first, because they are the best candidates to block. However, the exact order in which the orders are listed depends not on these criteria, but on the view that is selected in the Assembly Part Shortage - Assembly Orders (tiasc2545m000) session.
Number of Extra Orders

For each combination of date and assembly part, LN generates a list of orders that together contain the amount of assembly parts that are lacking for that day. If you want a longer list, specify a number of extra orders to be added. These orders are also selected according to the set of criteria you specified.
