Demand pegged supply orders

If insufficient inventory is available, supply orders can be generated and demand pegged to the demand order requesting allocated inventory. This means the supply order receives the same specification as the demand order. Allocated planned inventory transactions, containing the specifications, are created for the supply orders.

Supply orders for demand orders are generated or manually created from these origins:

  • Order planning runs in Pianificazione aziendale. For more information, refer to Order planning, an overview.
  • Sales (demand) orders or schedules in Vendite.

Demand peg supply orders in Approvvigionamento and Vendite

The following supply orders can be generated:

  • Purchase orders in the Generazione ordini di acquisto (tdsls4241m000) session.
  • Production orders in the Generazione ordini di produzione (tdsls4243m000) session.
  • Transfer orders in the Ordini di trasferimento per ordine di vendita (tdsls4242s000) session.

Supply orders can be created as follows from the Righe ordini di vendita (tdsls4101m000) session, or the Righe consegna pianificata ordine di vendita (tdsls4101m100) session:

  • Manually from the stock shortage menu

    When an inventory shortage occurs on the order line, the Menu scorte mancanti (tdsls4830s000) session starts. Select Genera ordine di acquisto, Genera ordine di produzione, or Genera ordine di trasferimento to create a supply order in the relevant session.
  • Manually from the appropriate menu

    When an inventory shortage occurs on the order line, you can click Genera ordine di acquisto, Genera ordine di produzione, or Genera ordine di trasferimento from the appropriate menu to create a supply order in the relevant session.
  • Automatically at sales order line entry

    When an inventory shortage occurs, a supply order is automatically generated if the relevant session is linked as an automatic activity to the order type in the Tipo ordine di vendita (tdsls0694m000) session.
Note: 
  • The Menu scorte mancanti (tdsls4830s000) session, which can appear for a manually entered sales order, is started only if the total quantity of the allocated inventory and/or demand pegged supply orders is less than the sales order line's ordered quantity.
  • During BOM explosion of the production order, LN can propagate the demand peg to orders for components depending on the Eredita pegging domanda field in the Distinta base (tibom1110m000) session.

Demand peg supply orders in Magazzino

Supply orders are generated or manually created if insufficient allocated or unallocated inventory is present to fulfil the demand order. If a supply order is generated for the demand order, a specification is also generated for the supply order. This specification has the same characteristics as the specification of the demand order.

When outbound order lines, outbound advice lines, shipment lines, and so on, are created for the demand order during warehouse processing, specifications are generated for these lines. These specifications obtain the specification characteristics of the demand order.

Likewise, the specification characteristics of the supply order are passed on to the specifications generated for the inbound order lines, receipt lines, inspection lines, or handling units.

Magazzino parameter settings determine whether:

  • Items received by supply orders become identifiable in inventory through handling units generated for the receipt line of the supply order when the receipt is confirmed. These handling units obtain specifications with characteristics identical to those of the supply order.
  • Specific handling units or anonymous allocated inventory is issued when generating an outbound advice for the demand order. See Inventory allocation levels. LN issues inventory for which the specification characteristics match those of the outbound order lines of the demand order.
  • You can advise unallocated inventory or inventory from a different specification to make up for the missing quantity if insufficient inventory for a particular specification is available to be issued from the warehouse. Whether this is allowed is determined by the Avviso per scorte non allocate and the Pegging domanda di Riga ordine in uscita è vincolante check box in the Impostazioni magazzino per Sito (whwmd2101m000) session. See Allocated or unallocated inventory in the outbound process.

Demand peg supply purchase orders and schedules

A purchase order/schedule is a source of supply for items. Purchased items can be demand pegged to an allocated demand by a specification. During receipt of the item, the characteristics of the specification are copied to the inventory record, which allocates this inventory to the specific demand.

Purchase ordersA purchase order line can be demand pegged if it is generated from the following origins:

  • EDI

    The purchase order line and related specification information is communicated through electronic data interchange (EDI) if the Pian. fornitura per Fornitore check box is selected in the Termini e condizioni pianificazione (tctrm1135m000) session. As a result, the Tipo pegging domanda in the Pegging domanda - Termini e condizioni (tctrm1165m000) session determines the specification's appearance on the purchase order line.
  • Vendite

    The purchase order is generated in the Generazione ordini di acquisto (tdsls4241m000) session. If a specification is linked to the sales order and the Pian. fornitura per Fornitore check box is cleared in the Termini e condizioni pianificazione (tctrm1135m000) session, the specification of the sales order is copied to the purchase order line.
  • Pianificazione aziendale

    The purchase order is generated from the Trasferimento pianificazione ordini (cppat1210m000) session. If a specification is linked to the planned order and the Pian. fornitura per Fornitore check box is cleared in the Termini e condizioni pianificazione (tctrm1135m000) session, the specification of the planned order is copied to the purchase order line.
  • INH

    The purchase order is generated from the Generazione ordini (TPOP) (whinh2201m000) session. If a specification is linked to the planned inventory transaction and the Pian. fornitura per Fornitore check box is cleared in the Termini e condizioni pianificazione (tctrm1135m000) session, the specification of the planned inventory transaction is copied to the purchase order line.
  • Ricevimento magazzino

    The purchase order line is generated automatically for an unexpected warehouse receipt. The specification is copied from the receipt in Magazzino.
  • Gestione produzione per reparti

    The (subcontracting) purchase order line is created from the Generazione documenti di acquisto conto lavoro (tisfc2250m000) session for a subcontracted operation on a production order. The specification is copied from the Materiali stimati (ticst0101m000) session in Produzione to the Righe fornitura materiali ordine di acquisto (tdpur4116m000) session in Approvvigionamento.
  • Ordine di acquisto conto lavoro

    The (subcontracting) purchase order line is created from the Generazione ordini fornitura per conto lavoro (tdpur4216m000) session for an order controlled/single system. The specification from the Righe fornitura materiali ordine di acquisto (tdpur4116m000) session is copied to the purchase order line.
  • Manuale

    For manually entered purchase orders, you can only create a specification in a specific vendor managed inventory (VMI) scenario and a specific subcontracting scenario.

    Before you can manually enter a purchase order for these scenarios, the following check boxes must be selected:

    • Pian. fornitura per Fornitore in the Termini e condizioni pianificazione (tctrm1135m000) session.
    • Pegging domanda obbligatorio in the Pegging domanda - Termini e condizioni (tctrm1165m000) session.

    Both scenarios also require specific settings before you can manually enter purchase orders:

    • VMI scenario

      On the purchase order line, the Pagamento field must be Pagamento al ricevimento or Pagamento all'utilizzo.
    • In the Termini e condizioni pianificazione (tctrm1135m000) session, the Invia riferimento a fornitore check box must be selected.
    • In the Pegging domanda - Termini e condizioni (tctrm1165m000) session, the Tipo pegging domanda must be Basato su riferimento interno.
    • Subcontracting scenario

      On the purchase order line, the Pagamento field must be Nessun pagamento.
    • In the Pegging domanda - Termini e condizioni (tctrm1165m000) session, the Tipo pegging domanda must be Basato sul cliente or Basato su riferimento cliente.
Note: 

If the purchase order line is a return order line, the specification of the original purchase order line is copied to the return order line.

Purchase schedulesA purchase schedule line can be demand pegged if it is generated from:

  • INH

    The purchase schedule is generated from the Generazione ordini (TPOP) (whinh2201m000) session. If a specification is linked to the planned inventory transaction and the Pian. fornitura per Fornitore check box is cleared in the Termini e condizioni pianificazione (tctrm1135m000) session, the specification of the planned inventory transaction is copied to the purchase schedule line.
  • Ordine di acquisto conto lavoro

    The (subcontracting) purchase schedule line is created from the Generazione ordini fornitura per conto lavoro (tdpur4216m000) session for an order controlled/single system. The specification from the Righe fornitura materiali ordine di acquisto (tdpur4116m000) session is copied to the purchase schedule line.
Note: 

For push schedules, specifications are not used.
