Viewing ATP Information
The ATP Information window is the entry point for calculating and viewing standard available to promise, capable to promise, and supply chain ATP information. For information distinguishing these types of ATP information and describing setup requirements, see: Supply Chain ATP and Capable to Promise
You can view the ATP quantity for an item or a group of items. You can perform the ATP inquiry for your current organization or any other organization where you carry your item. If you want a full availability picture in standard ATP for your item across multiple organizations, you can submit the ATP calculation for the same item in as many organizations as you have it defined. Oracle Inventory calculates the ATP by item organization based on the required quantity and required date you enter. You can also view each item's ATP result and supply/demand detail.
In Oracle Work in Process, you can access ATP information for discrete job components by choosing the Check ATP button in the Material Requirements window. WIP opens the ATP Results window directly, deriving ATP parameters and criteria that are normally entered in the ATP Information window and the ATP Criteria window. See: Viewing ATP Material Availability. See also: Viewing ATP Results.
You can also use the ATP inquiry as you enter sales orders or schedule sales orders in Oracle Order Entry. Depending on your system and item setup, Oracle Order Entry can automatically perform on-line ATP checking when you place demand. See: Scheduling an Order or Order Line.
Supply Chain Available to Promise provides a global view of material availability for the requested demand. You can view all possible supply sources for an order line, ship set, and configuration. You can view full details of your supply sources. See: Viewing Supply Chain ATP Results
