Compile Criterion Field

The Compile Criterion field is found in the Define ABC Compile window. For each distinct compile, you can choose one of the following criteria to value and rank each item included in the ABC compile. This criterion defines what the rank of a particular item will be in the ABC compile. For example, if you use Current on-hand quantity as your compile criterion, an item with an on-hand quantity of 10 units is of higher rank than another item with a quantity of 5 units. If you use the Current on-hand value criterion, and the first item from above has a cost of $10 per unit and the second item from above has a cost of $25 per unit, the second item has a higher value than the first item since Oracle Inventory compares $100 ($10 X 10 units) to $125 ($25 X 5 units).

Current on-hand quantity Use the current on-hand quantity of inventory. Assign the sequence number by descending quantity.
Current on-hand value Use the current on-hand quantity of inventory times the cost for the cost type. Assign the sequence number by descending value.
Historical usage value Use the historical usage value (transaction history). This is the sum of the transaction quantities times the unit cost of the transactions for the time period you specify. Assign the sequence number by descending value.
Historical usage quantity Use the historical usage quantity (transaction history) for the time period you specify. Assign the sequence number by descending quantity.
Historical number of transactions Use the historical number of transactions (transaction history) for the time period you specify. Assign the sequence number by descending number of transactions.
Forecasted usage value Use the forecasted usage value based on the forecast quantity calculated and the cost type you specify. Assign the sequence number by descending value.
Forecasted usage quantity Use the forecasted usage quantity. Assign the sequence number by descending quantity.
Previous cycle count adjustment quantity Use the previous cycle count adjustment quantity. Oracle Inventory sums the value of all cycle count adjustments since the last ABC compile date. Assign the sequence number by descending quantity.
Previous cycle count adjustment value Use the previous cycle count adjustment transaction value. Oracle Inventory sums the value of all cycle count adjustments since the last ABC compile date. Assign the sequence number by descending value.
MRP demand usage quantity Use the MRP demand usage quantity. Oracle Inventory sums the MRP gross requirements for the MRP plan you specify. Assign the sequence number by descending quantity.
MRP demand usage value Use the MRP demand usage value. Oracle Inventory sums the MRP gross requirements for the MRP plan you specify. The value is derived from the item cost type you choose in the ABC compile form. Assign the sequence number by descending value.
