Adding Replenishment Engine orders – Production

Production Transactional data are measures mapped as Order Type in the Replenishment engine, for the Cycle. These are the production order types:

  • Fixed Production Orders
  • Planned Production Orders
  • Scheduled Production Orders
  • Firm Production Orders

You can add Replenishment Engine Orders of type ‘Production’ for the Transactional data measures mapped to Production Orders in the Replenishment Engine assigned to the Cycle.

  1. Right click a transactional data measure which is mapped to a Production Order. The Add Production Order menu is displayed.
    Note: The Add Production Order menu is displayed only if:
    • The measure is of Transactional Data (Transfer) type.
    • The Transactional data measure is defined in the Replenishment Engine.
    • The Replenishment Engine is assigned to the Cycle.
    • The transactional data measure is mapped to a Production Order types defined in the Replenishment Engine.
    • The user has permission to add the transactional data.
    • The scenario can be edited by the current user (part of share).
  2. Select Add Production Order A new window is displayed.
  3. Specify this information:
    Name
    The name of the transactional data.
    Note: This value is defaulted based on the selected Transactional Data measure.
    Source measure
    The source measure of the Production Order. This value is derived from the transactional data name.
    Destination measure
    The destination measure of the Production Order. This value is derived from the transactional data name.
    Process Item
    The item to be processed.
    Note: 
    • This value is selected from a list of Process Items within the current context derived using the Processes - Item attribute in the Engine Supply Allocation Mapping.
    • If the context is at a valid Process Item, the value is pre-populated.
    Process Location
    The Location where the item is to be processed.
    Note: 
    • This value is selected from a list of Process Locations within the current context, derived using the Processes - Location attribute in the Engines Supply Allocation Mapping.
    • If the context is the base location, the value is pre-populated.
    • The available options are based on the value specified for Process Item.
    Process Version
    The Process Versions applicable for the selected Process Item and Process Location.
    Note: The available options are based on the value specified for Process Item and Process Location and derived using the Processes - Process Version attribute in the Engines Supply Allocation Mapping.
    Quantity
    The value of the Production Order.
    Critical Flag
    Indicates the criticality of the Production Order.
    Note: By default, this value is set to None and is read only.
    Start Date
    The start date of the production process.
    Note: 
    • If Transactional data Enable Lead Time is set to On:
      • This value is populated with ‘End date of the selected cell – Lead Time’.
      • This value is populated when the values for Process Item, Process Location and Process Version fields are specified.
      • The End Date is updated as ‘Start Date + Lead Time’ at the time of modifying the populated value.
    • If Transactional data Enable Lead Time is set to Off:
      • This value is populated with the ‘End date of the selected cell’.
      • The End Date is not updated when you modify the populated value.
    End Date
    The end date of the production process.
    Note: 
    • This value is populated with the 'End Date of the selected cell'.
    • This value is populated when the values for Process Item, Process Location and Process Version fields are specified.
    • If Transactional data Enable Lead Time is set to On:
      • The Start Date is updated as 'End Date – Lead Time’ at the time of modifying the populated value.
    • If Transactional data Enable Lead Time is set to Off:
      • The Start Date is not updated when you modify the populated value.
    Lead Time
    Indicates the Lead Time for the Production process. This is defined in the Engine (Transfer Lead Time) parameter in Transfer Out Mappings tab.
    Note: 
    • This field is displayed only if Transactional data Enable Lead Time is set to On.
    • This value is populated when the values for Process Item, Process Location and Process Version fields are specified.
    • This value is set to zero, if Lead Time is not defined in the Engine.
    Need Date
    The default value is set as End Date. However, you can modify the value.
    Note
    The additional information (text note) related to the Production Order.
    Reference
    The reference text related to the Production Order.
    Custom Field 1 to 5
    The additional text used as reference for the Production Order. These fields are displayed based on the configuration of the transactional data definition.
