Planned PRP Warehouse Orders

You can use the Generate Planned PRP Orders (tppss6200m000) session to generate the planned warehouse orders based on the projected budget and projected start date You can also manually create these orders in the Planned PRP Warehouse Order (tppss6115m000) session. A planned warehouse order can be used to reserve inventory in a warehouse. If the warehouse order is for a customized item, the item is manufactured and stored in a warehouse.

The PRP warehouse orders are required to manufacture or store goods (materials).

If the delivery date or the budget is modified, you can maintain the updated data for the orders in the Planned PRP Warehouse Order (tppss6115m000) session. This session allows you to manually create or modify these orders from a warehouse to a project or vice versa.

You can peg a PRP Warehouse Order to a project by selecting either of these check boxes:
  • The Mandatory Project Peg check box in the Items (tcibd0501m000) session.
  • The Peg PRP Warehouse Order check box in the Item - Project (tppdm0105s000) session.
  • The Pegging check box in the Planned PRP Warehouse Order (tppss6115m000) session.

For project deliverables, you can use the Generate Planned PRP Orders (tppss6200m000) session to generate the planned warehouse orders based on the data specified in the Project Deliverables (tppdm7100m000) session. You can also manually create these orders in the Planned PRP Warehouse Order (tppss6115m000) session. You can create orders to:

  • Ship deliverables to a business partner directly or via a warehouse.
  • Transfer deliverables to another warehouse.

Approve planned warehouse orders

An actual warehouse order is created when you confirm a planned warehouse order. You can use:

  • The Planned PRP Warehouse Order (tppss6115m000) session to confirm planned warehouse orders manually.
  • The Approve Planned PRP Warehouse Orders (tppss6225m000) session to confirm planned warehouse orders globally.
  • The Generate Planned PRP Orders (tppss6200m000) session to confirm and transfer the planned warehouse orders.

Transfer planned warehouse orders

You can use the Transfer Planned PRP Warehouse Orders (tppss6235m000) session to transfer the confirmed warehouse orders to Warehousing. These transfer orders must be released to allocate inventory to the project.

Changing planned warehouse orders into planned purchase orders

You can transfer planned warehouse orders to planned purchase orders using the Change to Planned Warehouse Order option in the Planned PRP Purchase Order sessions. If the cost of transfer between warehouses at different locations is higher than the cost of ordering the item directly to the project location, use this session to purchase the item instead of consuming from the inventory in stock. In this scenario, you must purchase the project items and transfer the planned warehouse order to planned purchase order without updating the planned warehouse order.

Using additional information fields

The additional information fields are user-defined fields that can be linked to Infor LN tables. These fields are defaulted from the Contract Lines (tpctm1110m000) session to the Planned PRP Warehouse Order (tppss6115m000) session.

Note: 
  • When creating or generating the Planned PRP Warehouse order, Infor LN defaults the additional information fields data from the Contract Line, that is linked to the project peg of the planned order.
  • For the Warehouse Delivery Type Wrh->BP or the data specified for the Proj->Wrh->BP Level, Sold-to Business Partner , in the Additional Information Definitions (tcstl2100m000) session is considered for the contract line. If the Sold-to Business Partner level is not defined, the data specified at the Level, General is used.
  • For all other Warehouse Delivery Type, Infor LN only uses the data specified in the Level, General in the Additional Information Definitions (tcstl2100m000) session.
  • If you transfer the Planned PRP Warehouse order to Purchase order or vice versa, the Additional Information field values are also defaulted.
