|   | Item Supplier Plan (cpvmi0530m000) Use this session to display an item-business-partner plan You can use this session to
		  see how the planned inventory of an item that is supplied and planned by a
		  particular supplier develops over time. This session acts more or less like the Item Order Plan (cprrp0520m000) session with a filter that only displays the
		  transactions related to the selected supplier. If you start this session, LN first starts the Item Supplier Plan - Find (cpvmi0531s000) session,
		  in which you select the some parameters for this session. This session can display three types of
			 item-business-partner plan, depending on the value of the VMI requirement type that you select when you start this session. The VMI
			 requirement type can have the following values:  Actual and Planned Demand The item-business-partner plan is based upon the actual
			 demand data and planned demand data that you generated in the order-planning
			 process.  Calculated Forecast to Supplier The item-business-partner plan is based upon the demand data
			 from the  forecast that you have calculated in the most recent
			 order-planning run. (This calculated forecast may or may not yet have been sent
			 to your supplier).  Sent Forecast to Supplier The item-business-partner plan is based upon the demand data
			 from the most recent  revision of the  forecast sent to your supplier. (After LN calculates the
			 forecast, you can modify the forecast before you send the forecast to your
			 customer). 
   Settings Scenario The identification of an overall planning solution. Each scenario represents one overall planning solution, and
		  involves particular settings for the planning of items and resources. You can
		  use scenarios to analyze and compare various planning options and to find the
		  best planning solution. For example, you can vary demand forecasts or sourcing
		  strategies. One of the scenarios is the actual scenario, which
		  corresponds with the actual planning situation. You can only transfer planned
		  orders and production plans from the actual scenario to the execution level of LN. 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. 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. Requirement Type The type and origin of the requirements on which LN can base an item
		supplier plan or an item customer plan in a vendor-managed-inventory situation.
		Depending on the requirement type, LN uses different demand data to calculate how much
		of an the item is planned to be available in each period. The VMI requirement type can have the following
			 values: - Calculated Forecast to Supplier
 - Sent Forecast to Supplier
 - Received Forecast from Customer
 - Calculated Confirmed Supply
 - Sent Confirmed Supply
 - Actual and Planned Demand
 
 Planner ID The planner that is responsible for planning this plan item. Actual Stock The current inventory of the plan item. If the information about the actual stock
				is only available at the supplier that handles the supply planning for the plan
				item, this field displays the confirmed stock. Confirmed Stock The actual stock of a plan item in a VMI warehouse, as reported
		by the supplier to the customer. In a vendor-managed-inventory situation, where the supplier is
		  responsible for the supply planning of an item in a warehouse at the customer's
		  site, the supplier keeps track of the inventory levels. In that case, the
		  supplier informs the customer of the actual stock. Confirmed Stock 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. Delivery Moment The pattern code that determines the delivery moments on
			 which you supplier agreed to deliver the items. For example, you can specify
			 that the goods must always be delivered on Wednesdays at 8:00 AM.  Note This field displays the value of the Delivery Moments field in the Planning Terms and Conditions (tctrm1135m000) session. That field can be left empty. If this field is empty, your supplier is
				free to choose any moment to deliver the requested goods. If this field displays a pattern code, LN can shift the date
				of delivery backwards to match one of the agreed delivery moments in the
				delivery pattern. Date The date and time on which the items are supposed to be
		  received in or issued from the warehouse. The calculation of the date depends on the type of record: Confirmed Forecast The confirmed part of the demand. Unconfirmed Forecast The unconfirmed part of the demand. Scheduled Receipts The quantity of items that you expect to receive from your VMI supplier. These scheduled receipts based on the following
				information:  Note  LN retrieves the scheduled receipt data from
			 the Planned Inventory Transactions (whinp1500m000) session. Confirmed Supply/Expected Supply The quantity of item the supplier has confirmed or is expected
		  to be delivered to the customer on the planned delivery date. Planned Avail.(Total) The expected inventory level that will be reached after this
		  demand or supply and all preceding changes will have been realized, assuming
		  that not only the confirmed forecast but also the unconfirmed forecast will lead to actual issues from the warehouse. Planned Available(Confirmed To Supplier) The expected inventory level that will be reached after this
		  demand or supply and all preceding changes will have been realized, assuming
		  that only the confirmed forecast will lead to actual issues from the warehouse. ATP (ConfirmedTo Supplier) The item quantity that is still available to be promised to a
		customer. In LN,
		  available-to-promise (ATP) is part of a larger extended framework of order
		  promising techniques called capable-to-promise (CTP). If an item's ATP is
		  insufficient, CTP goes beyond ATP in that it also considers the possibility of
		  producing more than was initially planned. In addition to the standard ATP functionality, LN also uses channel ATP.
		  This term refers to the availability of an item for a certain sales channel,
		  taking into account the sales limits for that channel. For all other types of order promising functionality used in LN, the term CTP is used. If the VMI requirement type is Actual and Planned Demand, LN calculates the ATP
			 based on the confirmed actual demand and the planned demand. If the VMI requirement type is Calculated Forecast to Supplier or Sent Forecast to Supplier, LN calculates the ATP based on the confirmed demand and the confirmed actual demand and the planned demand. MininumTarget Inventory The minimum inventory level that must be maintained. MaximumTarget Inventory The maximum inventory level permitted. Planning Time Fence The value of the Time Fence field in the Items - Planning (cprpd1100m000) session. Forecast Time Fence The value of the Forecast Time Fence field in the Items - Planning (cprpd1100m000) session. Order Horizon The value of the Order Horizon field in the Items - Planning (cprpd1100m000) session. ATP Horizon The value of the CTP Horizon field in the Items - Planning (cprpd1100m000) session. Net Change Date The value of the Net Change Date field in the Items - Planning (cprpd1100m000) session. Replenishment Based On The value of the Replenishment Based On field in the Planning Terms and Conditions (tctrm1135m000) session. Use Min-Max Inventory Levels The value of the Use Min-Max Inventory Levels field in the Planning Terms and Conditions (tctrm1135m000) session. Terms and Conditions Effective Date The value of the Effective Date field in the Planning Terms and Conditions (tctrm1135m000) session. Expiry Date The value of the Expiry Date field in the Planning Terms and Conditions (tctrm1135m000) session. Send Forecast to Supplier The value of the Send Forecast to Supplier field in the Planning Terms and Conditions (tctrm1135m000) session. Use Confirmed Supply The value of the Use Confirmed Supply field in the Planning Terms and Conditions (tctrm1135m000) session. BP Forecast Horizon The value of the Forecast Horizon field in the Planning Terms and Conditions (tctrm1135m000) session. Frozen Zone + The value of the Frozen Zone + field in the Planning Terms and Conditions (tctrm1135m000) session. Frozen Zone - The value of the Frozen Zone - field in the Planning Terms and Conditions (tctrm1135m000) session. Confirmed Supply Time Fence The value of the Confirm Supply Horizon field in the Planning Terms and Conditions (tctrm1135m000) session. Detail Order Type The type of order displayed on this line. Order Number The order number that identifies the demand or the order. Pos./Rev. Further details to identify the supply or demand. Demand The quantity of the demand. If this line represents a supply, this
				field displays zero (0). Supply The quantity of the supply. If this line represents a demand, this
				field displays zero (0). Planning Confirmed Forecast Planning Unconfirmed Forecast Consumed BPForecast The part of the forecast that has already resulted in issues from the
			 warehouse, after the forecast data was sent to the supplier. The actual issues consume the forecast demand. ConsumedConfirmed Supply The part of the confirmed supply that has already resulted in receipts or planned receipts into
			 the warehouse after the confirmed-supply data has been received from the
			 supplier. The receipts consume the confirmed supply. Specification Specification  If this check box is selected, a specification is present. To display the specification, in the menu,
				click Specification. Effectivity Unit A means to control the validity of variations by effectivity
		units. Unit effectivity enables you to model changes for the
			 following entities: - Engineering bill of material
 - Production bill of material
 - Routing
 - Routing operations
 - Supplier selection
 - Sourcing strategies
 
 Business Partner If this record involves a supply, this field indicates the sold-to business partner to which this supply was allocated or demand pegged. If this record involves a demand, this field indicates the
			 sold-to business partner to which the supply that can fill this demand must
			 have been allocated or demand pegged.  LN uses this characteristic to match supply
				and demand. Business Object Type If this record involves a supply, this field indicates the
			 type of order to which the inventory was allocated or the supply object was demand pegged, such as, Sales Order,
			 or Service Order. If this record involves a demand, this field indicates the type
			 of order to which the supply that can fill this demand must have been allocated
			 or demand pegged.  LN uses this characteristic to match supply
				and demand.  Note The following fields are always used in combination;
				  together, they identify the relevant order or order line: -  Business Object Type
 -  Business Object
 -  Business Object Reference
 
 Business Object If this record involves a supply, this field indicates the order,
			 or order line, to which the inventory was allocated or the supply object was demand pegged, such as, Sales Order,
			 or Service Order. If this record involves a demand, this field indicates the order,
			 or order line, to which the supply that can fill this demand must have been
			 allocated or demand pegged.  LN uses this characteristic to match supply
				and demand.  Note The following fields are always used in combination;
				  together, they identify the relevant order or order line: -  Business Object Type
 -  Business Object
 -  Business Object Reference
 
 Reference If this record involves a supply, this field indicates the
			 reference code to which the inventory was allocated or the supply object was demand pegged. If this record involves a demand, this field indicates the
			 reference code to which the supply that can fill this demand must have been
			 allocated or demand pegged.  LN uses this characteristic to find a
				matching supply for this demand.  LN uses the Reference field to record an internal
				reference. You can use a reference code to keep a
				collection of parts linked together, even if they follow different routings,
				for example, if some of the parts are transported to a subcontractor to be
				returned later. Use Unallocated Inventory  If this check box is selected, Enterprise Planning can use
			 unallocated inventory to supply the demand. Enterprise Planning uses
			 allocated inventory first. If there is not enough allocated inventory, Enterprise Planning also
			 uses unallocated inventory.  If this check box is cleared, Enterprise Planning can use
				only allocated inventory to fill the demand.  Note After this record has been created, the
				value of this field is kept unchanged, even if the terms and conditions change.    |   |
