Service Level Rule Evaluation Required Flag

The Service Level Rule (SLR) Evaluation Required flag indicates the impact that changes to sales order lines have in determining whether the system reevaluates the sales order lines or order meet service level rule requirements. When using order and line fill percentages, changing the order quantity or overriding the line or order percents can set the flag. Changing the branch plant on the sales order detail lines always sets the flag. The values are:

• 0: There has been no material change that impacts the state of the service level rule requirements.

• 1: The order line has experienced a material change which impacts whether the service level rule has been met

When the SLR Evaluation Required flag equals 1, this indicates that the criteria for the release of a line as determined by the Service Level rule met status has changed. Before the system can release the order line, you must accept the change using one of four methods:

• You can deselect the evaluation required flag for the line or order from the edit form of the Fulfillment Workbench program.

• You can use the Fulfillment Workbench to change the fulfilled quantity, branch plant, or promised delivery date on the order line.

• You can run the Auto Fulfillment report (R4277701) to reevaluate the line; thereby accepting any change.

• The can run the Service Level Rules Update report (R4277705) to reevaluate the service level rules for the order line or order.

The system checks the SLR Evaluation Required flag value whenever a change occurs at sale order entry. When the system uses a fill percentage rule, changes to order quantity or an override change to the line or order fill percent can effect a possible change in the met flags. If you change the branch plant from sales order entry, the system checks the SLR Evaluation Required flag.
