Example: Availability Calculation
For example, a planning message indicates a requirement for a quantity of 200 EA of style item XPJ01.B.0–3. The table illustrates the components and quantities indicated by the BOM:
|
Component |
Quantity and UOM |
|---|---|
|
XFBPJ.B |
25000 CM |
|
XLINPJ.B |
2400 CM |
|
XZPJ.B.XS |
200 UN |
The table illustrates the demand and availability the system uses to calculate material shortage:
|
Component |
Demand |
Availability (Based on Message Branch/Plant) |
Shortage |
|---|---|---|---|
|
XFBPJ.B |
25000 CM |
18800 CM |
6200 CM |
|
XLINPJ.B |
2400 CM |
1800 CM |
600 CM |
|
XZPJ.B.XS |
200 UN |
160 UN |
40 UN |
In this example, the shortage for style item XFPJ.B is calculated as (Material shortage) = (25000) − (18800) = 6200.
This table illustrates the demand and availability that the system uses to calculate material shortage if you use an additional branch/plant from which to supply material:
|
Component |
Demand |
Availability (Based on Message Branch/Plant) |
Availability (Based on Additional Branch/Plant) |
Shortage |
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
XFBPJ.B |
25000 CM |
18800 CM |
1000 CM |
5200 CM |
|
XLINPJ.B |
2400 CM |
1800 CM |
200 CM |
400 CM |
|
XZPJ.B.XS |
200 UN |
160 UN |
30 UN |
10 UN |
In this example, the shortage for style item XFPJ.B is calculated as (Material shortage) = (25000) − (18800) − (1000) = 5200.
