Noncritical cumulative production lead time

Enterprise Planning uses an items noncritical cumulative order lead time (noncritical COLT) to correctly calculate the minimum value of the order horizon.

For manufactured items, the noncritical COLT consists of:

  • The lead time of the item itself.
  • The longest noncritical COLT among the item's noncritical components in the BOM.

The lead time of the item itself consists of:

  • The order lead time defined in the Item - Production (tiipd0101m000) session.
  • The outbound lead time defined in the Item Data by Warehouse (whwmd2110s000) session.
  • The safety time defined in the Items - Ordering (tcibd2100m000) session.
  • The extra lead time defined in the Items - Ordering (tcibd2100m000) session.

In the Check Horizons (cprpd1200m000) session, you can fill in the following fields to influence the COLT calculation:

  • Additional Lead Time: extra lead time that Enterprise Planning adds to the item's COLT and noncritical COLT.
  • Order Lead-Time Multiplier: a factor that Enterprise Planning applies to increase the total lead time of the involved item.
