Return as Issued

When items are returned from the production environment to the warehouse, for example, because fewer items were required than issued for production, the original owner at the time of issue will become the owner again (unless the items are damaged).

Deferred

The date the ownership is transferred from supplier to customer is still unknown. The change date is determined after the items are picked, and depends on both the warehouse types involved in the goods transfer and the agreement between supplier and customer.

Not Applicable

Your own organization owns the inventory. Ownership behavior refers only to not-owned inventory.

Transfer Type

Use this field to define the type of transfer order that must be generated to replenish administrative customer warehouses and subcontracting warehouses.

The transfer order selected in this field is used to do the following:

  • Transfer planned distribution orders to replenish a customer's administrative warehouse if the supplier is responsible for the supply planning.
  • Supply subassemblies and materials to the subcontractor in case of operation subcontracting or item subcontracting.
Note: 
  • You cannot define this field if the terms and conditions type is set to Internal.
  • You cannot select Warehouse Transfer if the Payment field is set to Pay on Receipt.
  • Select Sales Order Transfer or Sales Schedule Transfer if the goods' ownership must change from the supplier to the customer. However, in case of subcontracting, the goods receiver does not acquire the ownership of the delivered goods.

Allowed values

Warehouse Transfer

A warehousing order is generated for which the Order Origin is set to Transfer in the Warehousing Orders (whinh2100m000) session.

Sales Order Transfer

A sales order is generated for which the Delivery Type is set to Warehouse in the Sales Order Lines (tdsls4101m000) session.

A Sales Order Transfer has the following advantages over a Warehouse Transfer:

Resp.for Supply Planning

If this check box is selected, the supplier (manufacturer) is responsible for initiating the component supply to a customer's (subcontractor's) warehouse.

If this check box is cleared, the customer (subcontractor) is responsible for initiating the component supply from a supplier's (manufacturer's) warehouse.

For an item-warehouse only one terms and conditions agreement can exist with the Responsible for Supply Planning check box selected. Therefore, only one supplier can be responsible to supply a specific plan item to the same warehouse.

Note: You can only select this check box if you are the supplier (manufacturer) and the terms and conditions type is set to Sales.

Supply Planning by Supplier

If this check box is selected, the supplier (manufacturer) is responsible for initiating the component supply to a customer's (subcontractor's) warehouse.

If this check box is cleared, the customer (subcontractor) is responsible for initiating the component supply from a supplier's (manufacturer's) warehouse.

For an item-warehouse only one terms and conditions agreement can exist with the Supply Planning by Supplier check box selected. Therefore, only one supplier can be responsible to supply a specific plan item to the same warehouse.

Note: You can only select this check box if you are the customer (subcontractor) and the terms and conditions type is set to Purchase.

Forecast received from Customer

If this check box is selected, the supplier will receive a demand forecast from the customer. This forecast is an aggregation of the planned and actual demand.

Note: You can only select this check box if you are the supplier and the Responsible for Supply Planning check box is selected.

Send Forecast to Supplier

If this check box is selected, the customer will send a demand forecast to the supplier. This forecast is an aggregation of the planned and actual demand.

Note: You can only select this check box if you are the customer and the Supply Planning by Supplier check box is selected.
Forecast Horizon

Defines for how many calendar days into the future forecast is sent to the supplier. For example, the customer can plan for 300 days, but limit the forecast to 100 days.

Note: You can only change this field if the Send Forecast to Supplier check box is selected.
Days

The date on which the forecast horizon ends.

Frozen Zone +

The number of days into the future, calculated from the forecast calculation date, for which the customer can no longer increase the demand forecast.

Note: You can only change this field if the Forecast received from Customer or the Send Forecast to Supplier check box is selected.

Days

The date on which the Frozen Zone + ends.

Frozen Zone -

The number of days, calculated from the forecast calculation date, for which the customer can no longer decrease the demand forecast.

Note: You can only change this field if the Forecast received from Customer or the Send Forecast to Supplier check box is selected.

Days

The date on which the Frozen Zone - ends.

Use Min-Max Inventory Levels

If the supplier is responsible for component supply in a customer's warehouse, this field indicates whether warehouse inventory levels are taken into account in the supplying process.

This field can have the following values:

  • Minimum Levels

    The supplier guarantees that a minimum inventory level is available in the customer's warehouse. If inventory drops below the minimum level, supply is sent.
  • Maximum Levels

    The supplier does not supply more than a maximum inventory level. This is to avoid the use of excessive or unnecessary inventory space
  • Minimum and Maximum Levels

    The supplier's component supply is restricted to both minimum and maximum inventory levels.
  • No

    No inventory level restrictions are applicable.
Note: You can only change this field if the Responsible for Supply Planning or the Supply Planning by Supplier check box is selected.

Min-Max Specification

Use this field to define the unit in which the minimum and maximum inventory levels are expressed.

  • By Quantity

    The minimum and maximum inventory levels are expressed as a fixed or time-phased quantity.

    Therefore, you can define the following:

    • A fixed minimum inventory level in the Minimum Inventory Level field.
    • A fixed maximum inventory level in the Maximum Inventory Level field.
    • Time phased inventory levels in the Planning Inventory Levels (tctrm1136m000) session.
  • Number of Days

    The minimum and maximum quantities are calculated by time period and vary with the forecast. The quantities are calculated each time the forecast is communicated or the terms and conditions are changed.

    The levels are calculated as follows:

    • Minimum inventory level

      Forecast per day * Min-Max Number of Days * Minimum Factor.
    • Maximum inventory level

      Forecast per day * Min-Max Number of Days * Maximum Factor.
    For more information, refer to Planning based on number of days supply.
Note: 
  • With the forecast, you can use minimum inventory levels specified by quantity to act as a safety stock. Therefore, if minimum inventory levels are defined, LN ignores safety stock set up for the customer's warehouse.
  • You can only select Number of Days if the Forecast received from Customer or the Send Forecast to Supplier check box is selected.

Min-Max Number of Days

If minimum and maximum inventory levels are calculated by time period and vary with the forecast, this field represents the item supply time. This is used with the demand forecast and the Minimum Factor and Maximum Factor fields to calculate the minimum and maximum inventory level quantities.

The number of days is expressed in calendar days, not in working days.

Note: You can only change this field if the Min-Max Specification field is set to Number of Days.

Minimum Factor

The minimum factor with the Min-Max Number of Days and the demand forecast, determines the minimum inventory level that must be present in the customer's warehouse.

Note: You can only change this field if the Min-Max Specification field is set to Number of Days.
Maximum Factor

The maximum factor with the Min-Max Number of Days and the demand forecast, determines the maximum inventory level that can be present in the customer's warehouse.

Note: You can only change this field if the Min-Max Specification field is set to Number of Days.
Inventory Unit

If the terms and conditions agreement is set up for a group of items, for which the item inventory units can differ, use this field to define a common inventory unit.

Note: You can only change this field if the Min-Max Specification field is set to By Quantity.

Minimum Inventory Level

minimum inventory level

Note: You can only define a fixed inventory level if the Min-Max Specification field is set to By Quantity.

Maximum Inventory Level

maximum inventory level

Note: You can only define a fixed inventory level if the Min-Max Specification field is set to By Quantity.

Use Confirmed Forecast

If this check box is selected, the customer specifies which part of the forecast is confirmed.

Note: 
  • You can only select this check box if the Forecast received from Customer or the Send Forecast to Supplier check box is selected.
  • You cannot select this check box if the Min-Max Specification field is set to Number of Days.

Specify Confirmed Forecast by

If the Use Confirmed Forecast check box is selected, use this field to define how the customer specifies the confirmed part of the forecast.

This field can have the following values:

  • Message

    Confirmed forecast is specified in the message as an indicator or a quantity.
  • Terms and Conditions

    The terms and conditions agreement specifies which periods contain confirmed forecast: all periods, or only the first periods.

Base Confirmed Forecast on

Use this field to define the (internal) method based on which a customer determines the confirmed part of the forecast sent in the message.

This field can have the following values:

  • All Forecast

    All demand forecast must be considered as confirmed forecast.
  • Confirmed End Item Demand

    A distinction is made between unconfirmed forecast and actual/confirmed forecast in the various levels of the BOM. During the MRP explosion, the difference between unconfirmed and confirmed quantities is taken into account. Therefore, at component level, the confirmed and unconfirmed forecast is known.
  • First Periods

    Only the forecast quantities in the first number of periods must be considered as confirmed forecast.
  • None

    None of the demand forecast is considered as confirmed forecast.

Example - Confirmed End Item Demand

The customer sells item A. Component B is linked to item A. Each item A needs 2 parts of B. The customer sends a forecast demand of B to the supplier.

Item A has demand from sales orders and an additional forecast demand:

  • Sales: 100 pcs.
  • Forecast: 200 pcs (non-consumed forecast).
  • Planned Production: 300 pcs (sales and forecast).

    The planned production order needs component B:

    • Planned forecast: 300 *BOM quantity 2 = 600 pcs.

If the Base Confirmed Forecast on field is set to Confirmed End Item Demand, out of the total forecast of 600, the forecast of B needed for confirmed forecast of A (sales orders), is confirmed. The demand of B needed for unconfirmed forecast of A (non-consumed forecast), is unconfirmed.

Therefore, the demand of B is split as follows:

  • Confirmed forecast: 200 pcs.
  • Unconfirmed forecast: 400 pcs.

Interpret Confirmed Forecast

If the Specify Confirmed Forecast by field is set to Terms and Conditions, use this field to define how the customer determines the confirmed part of the demand forecast.

  • All Forecast

    All forecast is considered as confirmed forecast.
  • First Periods

    Only the forecast quantities in the first number of periods must be considered as confirmed forecast. You can specify the first periods in the Number of Periods field.

Number of Periods

The number of periods into which the forecast quantities are considered as confirmed forecast.

Note: You can only change this field if the Base Confirmed Forecast on or the Interpret Confirmed Forecast field is set to First Periods.

Confirm Supply

If this check box is selected, the supplier sends a confirmation of the forecast to the customer. The confirmation holds the delivery quantities and delivery dates to which the supplier committed himself. Based on this confirmation, the customer checks whether the confirmed supply is enough to satisfy the demand.

Note: 
  • You can only select this check box if you are the supplier and the Forecast received from Customer check box is selected.
  • You cannot select this check box if the Min-Max Specification field is set to Number of Days

Use Confirmed Supply

If this check box is selected, the supplier sends a confirmation of the forecast to the customer.

    This can be the following:

    • The forecast part needed for customer orders.
    • The forecast within a specific time frame.
Note: You can only change this field if you are the supplier and the Confirm Supply check box is selected.

Confirm Supply Horizon

The period, expressed as a number of days, during which a supplier can decrease confirmed quantities.

Note: You can only change this field if the Confirm Supply or the Use Confirmed Supply check box is selected.

Days

The date on which the Confirm Supply Horizon ends.

Replenishment Based On

Use this field to define how a supplier must supply components to the customer's warehouse. You can choose between reactive replenishment (inventory levels, or manual orders) or planning (demand forecast) based replenishment.
