Scheduling an Order or Order Line
Prerequisites
To schedule an order or order line:
1. Navigate to any child window of the Sales Orders or Schedule Orders windows.
For example, you can schedule orders from the Sales Orders window itself, from Lines to Schedule, and from Line Options.
2. Choose the Schedule... button to display the Schedule dialog window.
3. Select the scope for the scheduling action: Order, Ship Set, Configuration, Shipment, or Line/Detail.
ATP Inquiry: Check ATP (available-to-promise) for all order lines within the scope you chose, without placing demand. If the items within your scope are part of a ship set, or if they are part of an ATO model or Ship Model Complete PTO model, Oracle Order Entry/Shipping supplies the first date that all affected items are available. If the order can be shipped partially, Order Entry/Shipping supplies individual ATP dates and quantities for each item within your scope. See: Defining Sales Order Line Scheduling Information.
Demand: Place demand for all demandable items within your scope that have not already been demanded.
Reserve: Reserve inventory for all reservable order lines and schedule details within your scope that have not already been reserved. If the item on a line is not reservable, Oracle Order Entry/Shipping places demand instead. If the reservation fails, use the View Schedule Results window to see a list of all items and each corresponding ATP date and quantity.
Undemand: Remove demand for all demanded order lines and schedule details within your specified scope.
Unreserve: Remove reservations for all reserved order lines and schedule details within your scope, and replace with demand.
Unschedule: Remove all demand and reservations for all the order lines and schedule details within your scope.
5. Choose the Schedule button to launch the action.
To assign a schedule action to a line or detail:
1. Navigate to the lines block of any child window of the Sales Orders or Schedule Orders windows.
2. Choose the Schedule... button to display the Schedule dialog window.
3. Select Line/Detail as the Scope.
ATP Inquiry: Check ATP (available-to-promise) for this order line or line detail, without placing demand. If the line or detail is part of a ship set, Oracle Order Entry/Shipping supplies the first date that all items in the order are available. If the order can be shipped partially, Order Entry/Shipping supplies ATP information for this item only.
Demand: Assign demand to the line or detail, if it has not already been demanded.
Reserve: Reserve inventory for the line or detail, if it has not already been reserved. If the item is not reservable, Oracle Order Entry/Shipping places demand instead. If the reservation fails, use the View Schedule Results window to see a list of all items and each corresponding ATP date and quantity.
Undemand: Remove demand for the line or detail.
Unreserve: Remove reservation from the line or detail, and replace with demand.
Unschedule: Remove demand and reservation for the line or detail.
5. Choose the Assign button.
Assigning a schedule action to a line updates the Schedule Action field, but Oracle Order Entry/Shipping does not perform the action until you save your work. This enables you to assign schedule actions to many lines on an order and then perform all queries at once.
