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).

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:

  • If this record describes a confirmed supply, this date is the receipt date of the confirmed supply.
  • If this line describes a supply that is recorded in the planned inventory transactions, this date is planned receipt date of the transaction.
  • If this line describes a demand and the VMI requirement type is Actual and Planned Demand, this date is the planned delivery date of the transaction.
  • If this line describes a demand and the VMI requirement type is Calculated Forecast to Supplier or Sent Forecast to Supplier, this date is the requirement date of the forecast. The requirement date of the forecast is the start date of the aggregation period.
Total Forecast

The sum of the confirmed part and the unconfirmed part of the demand.

Note: The basis on which LN calculates this field depends on the VMI requirement type for which you opened this item-business-partner plan.
Confirmed Forecast

The confirmed part of the demand.

Note: The basis on which LN calculates this field depends on the VMI requirement type for which you opened this item-business-partner plan.
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)

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 (Confirmed To Supplier)

available-to-promise

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.

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.
