Increase or decrease the number of kanban signals

You can increase or decrease the number of kanban signals using these sessions:

• Item Data by Warehouse (whwmd2110s000)
• Global Update of Kanban Parameters (whinh2200m100)
• Update Kanban Parameters (whwmd2113m000)

Reusable signals

If you increase the number of signals, either manually or by calculation, you are asked if the number of Active signals must be increased.

If yes, and Inactive signals are present, first the Inactive signals are activated. The signals are activated in alphabetical order. If this does not cover the total quantity by which you want to increase the number of signals, LN creates new Active signals for the remaining quantity. Kanban signals are displayed in the Kanban Signals (whwmd2111m000) session.

If no, the number of signals is not updated.

If you decrease the number of signals, LN sets the required number of active signals to Inactive.

Non-reusable signals

If you increase the number of signals, you are asked whether the number of signals must be increased. If yes, new Active signals are created. If the number of signals is decreased, the required number of active signals is closed in alphabetical order.
