Order Changed

Select this check box to view order change errors associated with the search criteria that you selected. The order in PeopleSoft Production Management changes after being loaded into PeopleSoft Supply Planning.

Pick Plan Generated

Select this check box to view pick plan errors associated with the search criteria that you selected. The pick plan has already been generated for the order; therefore, you cannot apply changes.

Tolerance

Select this check box to view tolerance errors that are associated with the search criteria that you selected.

When you run the Post Updates process, you can decide how the system should handle the updates pertaining to the reschedule of orders that are within tolerance. One option is to post an error if the reschedule update is invalid.

See Posting PeopleSoft Supply Planning Updates to the Transaction System.

Illegal Substitution

Select this check box to view illegal substitution errors associated with the search criteria that you selected. The component substitute does not appear on the bill of materials as a valid substitute.

No Routing

Select this check box to view no routing errors associated with the search criteria that you selected. The production operation does not exist on the routing for the item on the order.

Previously Converted

Select this check box to view previously converted errors that are associated with the search criteria that you selected.

These type of errors occur if, for example, a planned production order is created but not applied before it is brought back into PeopleSoft Supply Planning. The next time that you run the Post Updates process, the planned production order may have already been converted into an actual production order from the last run. This may cause a doubling of the orders in the system.

Open Pegs

Select to include updates to orders that are pegged to unfulfilled demand.

Quantity Change

Select to view quantity change errors associated with the search criteria that you selected. The system changes the production order status to In Process. Quantity change for production orders with a status of In Process are flagged as error.
