| | Item - Warehousing Defaults by Site (whwmd4109m000) 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. Item Group The code of the item group to which the
defaults apply. Package Definition The code of the package definition. This is
the default package definition for the item. Location Controlled If this check box is selected, the item is location
controlled. Lot Controlled If this check box is selected, the item is a lot item. Lots in Inventory If this check box is selected, LN records the inventory
for each combination of lot and warehouse and the full lot-control
functionality is available. Lot Tracking If this check box is selected, the item's lots are tracked in Warehousing. You can only select this check box if the
item is lot controlled. An item is lot controlled if for the item the Lot Controlled check box in the Item Defaults (tcibd0102m000) session is selected. Number of Periods The length of the period for which the ABC analysis is
performed. Serials in Inventory If this check box is selected, the low volume scenario is used, which
means that serial numbers are individually stored in inventory. You can view
the serial numbers in inventory in the Item - Serials and Warehouses (whltc5100m000) session. Note Select this check box for low volume
environments in which intensive tracking of serialized items, throughout the
goods flow, is required and where each serialized item must be handled
individually. Clear this check box for high volume
environments in which serialized items do not require tracking throughout the
goods flow, individual handling, and storage in inventory. If serials are stored in inventory, you
cannot enable backflushing in Manufacturing. For more information, refer to Backflush Materials. By default, this field is selected by LN for manufactured
assembly items. Important! If this check box is unavailable, make sure
the Direct Process Warehouse Order Line check box in the Item - Production (tiipd0101m000) session is cleared. If this check box is selected, you can convert the serialized item to not being recorded in inventory. For
this purpose, choose Convert to Not in Inventory if inventory is present for
the item. As a result, this check box is cleared and the serial number in
inventory records that are stored in the Lot Control are
deleted. If this check box is selected, the following fields,
which are used in the high volume scenario, are set to read-only and have the Not Applicable value: - Serial Number Entry for Direct Delivery
- Serial Number Entry During Receipt
- Serial Number Entry During Transfer
- Register Serial Issue During As Built
- Register Serial Issue in Service & Maintenance
Serial Price If this check box is selected, the serial price is
maintained by default. You can select this check box if, in the Item - Warehousing (whwmd4600m000) session, the Serials in Inventory check box is selected for the
item. This check box is selected by default if the Serial Price check box is selected in the Item - Warehousing (whwmd4600m000) session. If the item is not present in the Serialized Items (tcibd4501m000) session, you can select or clear this check box. If
the item is present in the Serialized Items (tcibd4501m000) session, the value in this field can only be changed
if the inventory valuation method is changed for the item. Serial Tracking If this check box is selected, the item's serial number is tracked in Warehousing, which enables you to view the following information on
serialized items: - The inbound or outbound orders for which serial numbers are
registered. This information is displayed in the Serial Tracking - Overview (whltc5515m000) session.
- The outbound orders for which serial numbers are
registered. This information is displayed in the Item - Serials - Issues (whltc5510m000) session.
- The inbound orders for which serial numbers are registered.
This information is displayed in the Item - Serials - Receipts (whltc5511m000) session.
- The serial number, the originating order, and other data by
item for inbound items in the Order - Serials (whltc5512m000) session.
You can only select this check box if the
item is a serialized item. An item is
serialized if, in the Item Defaults (tcibd0102m000) session, the Serialized check
box is selected for the item. Default Inventory Lot Size The default lot size in an inventory that is allowed in a warehouse. Note - This field is enabled only if:
- The Lot Control in Use checkbox is selected in the Warehouse Master Data Parameters (whwmd0100s000) session.
- The Lots in Inventory checkbox is selected.
- This value is expressed in the inventory unit of the item.
Allocation Level The inventory allocation level for the current item stored in
the current warehouse. The default value is taken from the Allocation Level field of the Inventory Commitments (whinp2100m000) session. For a configurable purchased item, the Allocation Level is treated as Physical Item. This means that when you receive a
configurable purchased item, a handling unit is generated, and the
specifications, including the option list ID and allocations, are stored in the handling unit. Default Supply System The default supply system of the selected item for the current site. Product Assembly Kit Part If this check box is selected, the item can be used as assembly part in the Assembly Kit Parts List (whwmd4151m000) session. Note This field is displayed only if the Product Based Assembly Kits check box is selected in
the Warehouse Master Data Parameters (whwmd0100s000) session. Item Valuation Group An entity that is used to group items for inventory valuation
purposes. To define an item valuation group, you must link an item valuation
group code to the items that you want to include in the item valuation group.
Item valuation groups and warehouse valuation groups are linked, for example,
to inventory valuation methods to valuate the item-warehouse combinations
included in the warehouse and item valuation groups. Hazardous Material If this check box is selected, the item is hazardous.
This can be important information for storage and transport. Class of Risk The class of risk that applies to the hazardous material. This field is only
accessible when the Hazardous Material check box is selected. This field is used to select data to print
national bills of lading, CMRs, freight documents, and inventory data in the Warehouse Orders module. Ownership Registration Level Ownership Registration Level The following constraints apply to the values of this
list: - List value Location is available if the current item is location controlled.
- List value Physical Item is available if handling units are used the Warehousing package, that is, if the Handling Units in Use check box is selected in the Warehouse Master Data Parameters (whwmd0100s000) session.
- List value Physical Item and Location is available if the current item is location controlled
and the Handling Units in Use check box is selected in the Warehouse Master Data Parameters (whwmd0100s000) session.
Ownership for Return to Warehouse This field determines how to handle the ownership for
production return orders. On a production order, a business partner is not
known. As a result, Manufacturing cannot read an agreement. Instead, Manufacturing obtains a
default value from the current field. Exclude from Cycle Counting For the current site the selected item is ignored for cycle counting. If Inventory becomes Zero Indicates the value based on which the cycle counting data must be processed if the registered inventory of a stock
point becomes zero. The following cycle counting values are available: Forced Cycle Count The existing cycle counting data is
maintained. Use the option to force cycle counts for a stock point,
if its system inventory becomes zero. If you select Forced Cycle Count, the Force Cycle Count check box in the Cycle Counting Data (whinh5140m000) session is automatically selected. Regular Cycle Count The existing cycle counting data is
maintained. Use this option to cycle count based on the cycle count
interval specified in the Counting Interval in Weeks group box. No Cycle Count The existing cycle counting data is removed if no active
cycle counting order is present for the stock point. Use this option to remove the cycle count data of a
zero stock point. The cycle count data is removed when the record in the Stock Point Inventory (whinr1540m000) session is deleted.
Note The default value for the field is retrieved from the Items - Warehousing Defaults (whwmd4501m000) session. The field is disabled if the Exclude from Cycle Counting check box is selected and
the default value is set to No Cycle Count.
Process Inventory Variances Automatically If this check box is selected, LN processes inventory variances automatically for the selected item in the current site. Floor Stock If this check box is selected, the item is a floor stock item. Floor stock items are not included in the
order content. Therefore, no transactions, such as backflushing, are performed on them, both in Job Shop Control and in Assembly Control. However, floor stock items are in one case
part of the order content, although even now no transactions are performed on
them. This is the case when you print work instructions, and the
following conditions apply: - The items are part of the work instructions.
- The Print on Order Document check box is selected for the items concerned, in
the Bill of Material (tibom1110m000) session.
Items can be stored as floor stock if: - Their associated inventory carrying costs are low.
- They are present on the job shop.
- Issues cannot be entered manually.
If this check box is cleared, costing is based on the actual usage. Inventory Carrying Costs The inventory carrying costs constitute the cost of storing one inventory unit of an
item for one year: these costs include interest, storage space, and risk. Allowed values Minimum: 0 Maximum: 9999999.9999 Note Inventory costs are used in the Calculate Economic Order Quantity (Camp) (whina2201m000) session. A generally accepted medium of exchange such as coins, treasury
notes, and banknotes. The following currency types are available in LN: - Home currency, which is used internally by companies to
calculate costs, record budgets, and register tax amounts
- Transaction currency, which is used in transactions with
business partners, such as orders and invoices
Frequency for Storage Inspection The frequency for storage inspection of this item in days. Allowed values Minimum: 0 Maximum: 999 You can generate regular cycle counts. If
you do so, only those items for which the value of this field is not equal to
zero are considered. The unit used to express the length of the item. Floor Space The floor space of the item. The unit used to express the floor space of the item. The unit used to express the volume of the item. The unit used to express the weight of the item. Expected Annual Issue The expected annual issue is the quantity of the item that is expected to be used (issued) for each year,
expressed in the inventory unit. Allowed values Minimum: 0 Maximum: 999999999.9999 For the ABC analysis of items with a
historical usage spanning no more than three periods, the expected annual issue
is used in the Perform ABC Analysis (whina6210m000) session. The expected annual issue is also used in
the Calculate Economic Order Quantity (Camp) (whina2201m000) session. The expected annual issue is updated
through the Calculate Demand Forecast (whina2202m000) session. Forecast Method The forecast method determines how the expected demand for the item in the next
period is forecast. - moving average
- exponential smoothing
- Previous Year's Calculation, using the calculation of the previous year as an estimate
for the demand.
- Last Period's Demand, using the demand in the previous period as a forecast for the
consecutive period.
These methods must be predefined in the Forecast Methods (whina2100m000) session. The forecast method is only used in the Calculate Demand Forecast (whina2202m000) session. In which it serves to compute: ABC Code The ABC code shows each item's contribution to the annual sales volume. A items
are high-value items, whereas C items constitute low-value items. Manually Entered ABC Code If this check box is selected, the ABC code has been entered manually in the ABC Code field. LN will not calculate and overwrite unless the proper option is selected in the Perform ABC Analysis (whina6210m000) session. If this check box is cleared, the ABC Code field has not been entered manually: it is system-generated or
not yet calculated. The ABC code will be calculated by the Perform ABC Analysis (whina6210m000) session. Period for Shelf Life The unit of time in which the item's shelf life is expressed. Shelf Life [Periods] The shelf life indicates the length of time that the item can be held in
inventory. Allowed values Minimum: 0 Maximum: 999 Rejects Handling The method used to handle items rejected during warehouse
inspection. You can adjust the value in this field, even if unprocessed
inspection lines are present. Disposition Due Lead Time The default date and time on which quarantine inventory becomes
available for planning using Enterprise Planning, TPOP, or SIC. The disposition lead time applies if By Due Date is selected in the Available for Planning field of
the Inventory Handling Parameters (whinh0100m000) session. Time Unit The time unit used for the disposition lead time. Create Outbound Advice Despite Inventory Shortage If this check box is selected, LN allows outbound advice to be generated even if insufficient
inventory is available. To generate outbound advice for negative inventory, the Create Outbound Advice Despite Inventory Shortage check
box in the Generate Outbound Advice (whinh4201m000) session must also be
selected. If you clear this check box and in the Item Data by Warehouse (whwmd2510m000) session, warehouses are present for this
item for which the Create Outbound Advice Despite Inventory Shortage check box is selected, a warning is displayed saying that this check box will
be cleared for the item in all warehouses. If you select this check box, you are prompted to confirm or
cancel this change for all warehouses where the Create Outbound Advice Despite Inventory Shortage check box was not selected in the Item Data by Warehouse (whwmd2510m000) session. Note If the value of the Allow Negative Inventory field is: - No, this check box is unavailable.
- If on Order, outbound advice for negative inventory
cannot exceed the on order quantity expected to be received.
Allow Negative Inventory The default value in this field is taken from the Allow Negative Inventory field of the Items - Warehousing Defaults (whwmd4501m000) session and is defaulted to the Allow Negative Inventory field of the Item Data by Warehouse (whwmd2110s000) session. The value in this field is defaulted from the Allow Negative Inventory field of the Items - Warehousing Defaults (whwmd4501m000) session. If you change the value of this field to No and in
the Item Data by Warehouse (whwmd2510m000) session, warehouses are present for this
item for which the value is Yes or If on Order, a warning is displayed saying that the Yes or If on Order values will be inactivated for the item in all
warehouses. If you change the value of this field to Yes or If on Order, you are prompted to confirm or cancel this change for all
warehouses where the value for this item is No in the Item Data by Warehouse (whwmd2510m000) session. Note Negative inventory is not allowed for: Lot Price If this check box is selected, you can use inventory valuation method Lot Price (Lot). You can select this check box if the following applies: - The item is lot controlled.

order line on the ASN is a direct delivery purchase line, you must register the lot
code in the ASN Line Lots and Serials (whinh3105m000) session. Note If you enter a template in the Lot and Serial Registration Template field, the settings of that field can
overrule this field. Lot Entry During Receipt If the value of this field is Yes, you must
register the lot codes of lot-controlled items when you receive these items in
inventory. However, the receipt of items that results from a transfer order is excluded, unless the Lot Entry During Transfer check box is also selected. If the value of this field is Yes and the Generate Lots Automatically check box in the Warehousing Order Types (whinh0110m000) session is selected for the order type of the
order lines associated with received items, lot codes are automatically
generated for the received items. If the Lots in Inventory check box is selected, this field
has the value Not Applicable and cannot be changed. If the value of this field is No, the option
to register lot codes of received items during receipt is not available. Note If you enter a template in the Lot and Serial Registration Template field, the settings of that field can
overrule this field. Lot Entry During Transfer This field determines whether you must fill lot distribution
tables during warehouse transfers. This field can have the following values: Not Applicable The Lots in Inventory check box is selected, and this
field is read-only. Yes Registration of lot codes for transfer orders is
mandatory. However, the impact of this value depends on the value of the Lot Entry During Receipt field: - If the value of the Lot Entry During Receipt field is Yes, lot
registration for both the inbound and outbound lines of transfer orders is
mandatory.
- If the value of the Lot Entry During Receipt field is No, lot
registration is not available for the transfer order receipt lines.

outbound or receipt lines.
Note - Value No in the
current field can adversely affect lot tracking.
- If you enter a template in the Lot and Serial Registration Template field, the settings of that field can
overrule this field.
Register Lot Issue During As Built This field determines whether you must fill lot distribution
tables for component item issues for a production order. This field can have the following values: Not Applicable The Lots in Inventory check box is selected, and this
field is read-only. Yes If a component is issued for the production of a serialized
item (order origin is SFC Production), registration of lot codes is mandatory. You can enter the
lot codes in the Serial End Item - As-Built Components (timfc0111m000) session. If lot tracking is required, this entry also results in an
entry for lot tracking. If the component is not for production of a serialized
item, you must register the lot during outbound or during shipment. No You cannot register lots in the as-built process. In this
case, you must register lots before you confirm shipment, either in the Outbound Advice Lots and Serials (whinh4126m000) session or the Shipment Line Stock Point Details (whinh4133m000) session.
Register Lot Issue in Service & Maintenance This field determines whether you must fill lot distribution
tables for items issues in Warehousing or in Service. The values of this field determine at which point you must
register lot numbers for lot items whose issue from the warehouse is initiated

For this field, the following values are
available: - If the Lots in Inventory check box is cleared and the value
of the current field is No, the registration of issued lot
numbers is carried out by Warehousing. The lot information is passed to Service when the warehouse
order is shipped..
- If the Lots in Inventory check box is cleared and the value of the current field is Yes, the
registration of lot numbers used in maintenance is carried out by Service.
- If the Lots in Inventory check box is selected, in which case the low volume
scenario is used, the value of the current field is Not Applicable.
Serial Number Entry for Direct Delivery This field is available if the high volume scenario is used.
The high volume scenario is used if the Serials in Inventory check box is cleared. If the Serials in Inventory check box is selected, the low
volume scenario is used. As a result, the current field is read-only and the
value is Not Applicable. If the value of this field is Yes, and the
order line on the ASN is a direct delivery purchase line, you must register the
serial number in the ASN Line Lots and Serials (whinh3105m000) session. Serial Number Entry During Receipt This field is available if the high volume scenario is used.
The high volume scenario is used if the Serials in Inventory check box is cleared. If the Serials in Inventory check box is selected, the low
volume scenario is used. As a result, the current field is read-only and the
value is Not Applicable. If the value of this field is Yes, you must
register the serial numbers of received serialized items in the Receipt Line Lots and Serials (whinh3123m000) session. If the value of this field is Yes and the Generate Serials Automatically check box in the Warehousing Order Types (whinh0110m000) session is selected for the order type of the
order lines associated with received items, serial numbers are automatically
generated for the received items. If the value of this field is No, the option
to register serial numbers of received serialized items during receipt is not
available. Registration of received serial numbers can
be useful in tracking what happens to which serial, for example, during
inspection. For serialized items that must be inspected, the serial numbers are
copied from the Receipt Line Lots and Serials (whinh3123m000) session to the
Inspection Lines (whinh2131m000) session. You can change the setting of this check
box, but if inventory exists for the current item, a warning to that effect
appears. Serial Number Entry During Transfer This field is available if the high volume scenario is used.
The high volume scenario is used if the Serials in Inventory check box is cleared. This field
can have the following values: Not Applicable The Serials in Inventory check box is selected, and this

of this field determine at which point you must register serial numbers for
component items that are issued from the warehouse to the job shop to
manufacture end items listed on production orders in Manufacturing. To issue component items, the following
methods are available: LN allocates the component items to the production order without
performing a warehouse issue procedure, therefore no outbound order lines are
created to issue the components. Automatic warehouse processing After you release the production order, LN creates an
automatically processed warehousing order of the Issue and SFC Production origin. Manual warehouse processing The same as the previous method, except that the
warehousing order is processed manually.
The values in this field relate to the third
method, Manual warehouse processing. This field can have the following values: Register Serial Issue in Service & Maintenance This field is available if the high volume scenario
is used. The high volume scenario is used if the Serials in Inventory check box is cleared. The values of this field determine at which point you must
