Use Working Days for Frozen Period

If this check box is selected, only working days are used when calculating frozen periods.

If this check box is cleared, calendar days are used when calculating frozen periods.

Note: 

If this check box is selected, the specified number of working days is added to the current date. The working days are retrieved from the calendar that is linked to the ship-from business partner, the buy-from business partner, or the company.

If this check box is cleared, the specified number of calendar days is added to the current date.

When planning the dates, the availability type from the Procurement Parameters (tdpur0100m000) session is used.

Delete Past Schedule Lines

This check box determines how to handle undelivered and redundant quantities on schedule lines with dates in the past.

If this check box is selected, the schedule lines are deleted by Enterprise Planning .

If this check box is cleared, planning messages are generated informing a planner to manually delete the schedule lines.

Note: This check box can be selected only if the Frozen Period for Decreasing Quantity is zero in the current session.

Maximum Capacity Tolerance

maximum capacity tolerance

The maximum capacity tolerance is calculated as follows:

               Maximum Capacity Tolerance * Supplier Capacity + Supplier Capacity
            

Example

• Supplier capacity: 100 pieces.
• Maximum capacity tolerance: 20 (percent).
• Capacity time unit: week.

Enterprise Planning takes into account that the supplier can only deliver a maximum number of 120 pieces a week.

Lead Time Horizon

The number of days that, together with the current date/generation date, determines whether:

• LN uses the calculated lead time to determine the planned receipt date. LN uses this calculation when the date for which the lead time is calculated, falls outside the lead time horizon. Planned dates are calculated using the value from the Calculated Lead Time (Days) field, which is derived from the company's calendar.
• LN determines the planned receipt date, taking into account the calendars that are related to the lead time components. LN uses this calculation when the date for which the lead time is calculated, lies between the current date and the lead time horizon. Planned dates are calculated using the individual lead time components with the components' respective calendars.

Transportation Time (Days)

The transportation time in days, which can be calculated in two ways.

LN retrieves the transportation time as follows:

• If Freight is implemented, which you can define in the Implemented Software Components (tccom0500m000) session, calculation of the transportation time is based on carrier, and routes. Route plans and service levels are not known at this point in time.

  LN performs the following steps to retrieve the transportation time.

  1. If the route, the carrier, the origin, and the destination addresses are known, LN first searches for route plans and then for standard routes with matching routes, carriers, and addresses.
  2. If more than one matching route plan or standard route is found, LN selects the route plan or standard route with a transport means group that matches the transport means group of the carrier.
  3. If LN still finds more than one route plan or standard route, route plans have priority over standard routes. If only standard routes are found, the standard route is selected following the settings of the Carrier/LSP Selection Criterion parameter in the Freight Planning Parameters (fmlbd0100m000) session.
  4. If LN still finds more than one route plan, it selects the first one it encounters in the database.
• If Freight is not implemented, LN takes the transportation time between the ship-from business partner's address and the receiving warehouse's address, based on a relevant distance table (if available) in the Distance Table by City (tccom4137s000) session or in the Distance Table by ZIP Code/Postal Code (tccom4138s000) session. From which of these two sessions the transportation time is retrieved, depends on the value of the Usage Distance Tables field in the COM Parameters (tccom0000s000) session.

Calculated Lead Time (Days)

The rough purchase item lead time expressed in days. The calculated lead time is only used to determine the planned receipt date of forecast demand for which no accurate determination of the planned receipt date is yet required.

The calculated lead time is based on the availability type and calendar template that are linked to the following fields:

• Supply Time
• Internal Processing Time
• Safety Time
• Transportation Time (Days)

Note: Each time you open or close the current session, LN (re)calculates the calculated lead time.

Calculated Full Lead Time (Days)

The rough purchase full item lead time expressed in days.

The calculated full lead time is based on the availability type and calendar template that are linked to the following fields:

• Full Supply Time
• Internal Processing Time
• Safety Time
• Transportation Time (Days)

Note: 

• This field is visible only if the Use Full Supply Time check box is selected in the Procurement Parameters (tdpur0100m000) session.
• Each time you open or close the current session, LN (re)calculates the calculated full lead time.

Inbound Lead Time

inbound lead time

In this session, this field is displayed for information purposes only.

Inbound Lead Time

The unit in which the inbound lead time is expressed.

Date Tolerance (+)

delivery date tolerance (+)

Note: This tolerance is used for pull call-off schedules and the push schedules.

Date Tolerance (-)

delivery date tolerance (-)

Note: This tolerance is used for pull call-off schedules and the push schedules.

Hard Stop on Date

Indicates the action performed by LN when the date tolerances are exceeded.

Allowed values

No

You always can save the outbound advice, because LN ignores the set tolerances.

Warn

You can save the outbound advice, but you receive a warning if the tolerances are not met.

Block

You cannot save the outbound advice if the tolerances are not met.

Note: 

• This field is enabled only if the Active check box is cleared.
• For a Detail contract line, LN defaults this value from the Items - Purchase Business Partner (tdipu0110m000) session. If the value is not defined in this session, LN defaults this value from the related Total line.

Quantity Tolerance (+)

maximum quantity tolerance (+)

LN uses the Quantity Tolerance (+) to determine the default value of the Maximum Quantity Tolerance field in the Warehousing Orders (whinh2100m000) session as follows:

Max. Quantity Tolerance = 100 + Quantity Tolerance (+)

EXAMPLE

Quantity Tolerance (-)	= 10%
Minimum Quantity Tolerance	= 100% + 10% = 110%
Ordered quantity	200

In this case you do not accept receipts with a quantity over 220.

Note: 

For push schedules, the tolerated over-receipt quantity is calculated as follows:

• If blanket warehouse orders are used, the ordered quantity of the entire schedule is used for the calculation.
• If receipts are made in Purchase Control , the ordered quantity of the schedule line yet to be received, is used for the calculation.

The receipt quantity that exceeds the ordered quantity is added to the last schedule line.

Quantity Tolerance (-)

minimum quantity tolerance (-).

LN uses the Quantity Tolerance (-) to determine the default value of the Minimum Quantity Tolerance field in the Warehousing Orders (whinh2100m000) session as follows:

Minimum Quantity Tolerance = 100 - Quantity Tolerance (-)

EXAMPLE

Quantity Tolerance (-)	= 10%
Minimum Quantity Tolerance	= 100% - 10% = 90%
Ordered quantity	200

In this case you do not accept receipts with a quantity less than 180.

Note: This tolerance is used for pull call-off schedules and the push schedules.

Hard Stop on Quantity

Indicates the action performed by LN when the quantity tolerances are exceeded.

Allowed values

No

You always can save the outbound advice, because LN ignores the set tolerances.

Warn

You can save the outbound advice, but you receive a warning if the tolerances are not met.

Block

You cannot save the outbound advice if the tolerances are not met.

Note: 

• This field is enabled only if the Active check box is cleared.
• For a Detail contract line, LN defaults this value from the Items - Purchase Business Partner (tdipu0110m000) session. If the value is not defined in this session, LN defaults this value from the related Total line.
