| | Items - Sales by Site (tdisa0181m100)Use this session to view, specify, and
maintain the item sales data for a site. Note - This session is available only if you use multisite.
- If item sales data is not available at the global level in the Item - Sales (tdisa0601m000) session, you cannot specify the item sales data at the site level.
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)
Site A business location of an enterprise that can maintain its own
logistical data. It includes a collection of warehouses, departments and
assembly lines at the same location. Sites are used to model the supply chain
in a multisite environment. These restrictions apply to sites: - A site cannot cross countries. The warehouses and
departments of the site must be in the same country as the site.
- A site is linked to one planning cluster. Consequently, all
warehouses and work centers of a site must belong to the same planning
cluster.
- A site is linked to one logistic company.
You can link a site to an enterprise unit or an enterprise unit to a site. If an enterprise unit is linked to a site, the entities of the site belong to the enterprise unit.
Conversely, if a site is linked to an enterprise unit, the entities of the
enterprise unit belong to the site. Warehouse The warehouse at the site from where the item is
delivered. Default value - Item - Sales Defaults by Site (tdisa0182m100)
- Item - Ordering by Site (tcibd2150m000)
Commitment Policy Specify if and when you want to commit the ordered quantity
automatically for the item. Note You can change the commitment policy as long as no
commitments are made for the item in the Warehousing Orders (whinh2100m000) session. Minimum Quantity to Commit The minimum quantity that must be committed in case of a
partial allocation. If both the Minimum Quantity to Commit and the Minimum Rate for Commitment fields have significant
values, the quantity to be committed is checked against both fields. LN uses whichever number
is higher. Example - The value of the Minimum Quantity to Commit field is 5.
- The value of the Minimum Rate for Commitment is 10%.
For an order of 100, the minimum quantity is 5 and the
minimum rate (converted to a quantity) is 10. This results in a minimum
commitment of 10 for a partial allocation. For an order of 20, the minimum
quantity is still 5, but the minimum rate (converted to a quantity) is 2. In
this case, the minimum commitment quantity is 5 for a partial allocation. Inventory 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. Minimum Rate for Commitment The minimum rate that must be delivered in case of a partial allocation. If both the Minimum Quantity to Commit and the Minimum Rate for Commitment fields have significant
values, the quantity to be committed is checked against both fields. LN uses whichever number
is higher. Example - The value of the Minimum Quantity to Commit field is 5.
- The value of the Minimum Rate for Commitment is 10%.
For an order of 100, the minimum quantity is 5 and the
minimum rate (converted to a quantity) is 10. This results in a minimum
commitment of 10 for a partial allocation. For an order of 20, the minimum
quantity is still 5, but the minimum rate (converted to a quantity) is 2. In
this case, the minimum commitment quantity is 5 for a partial allocation. | |
