Pegging and Parts List Updates

Requirements Planning Summary and Planning Console uses pegging to determine the parent source of demand for component items. The system updates pegging and parts list records when you change the Adjusted Quantity field value in the Supply/Demand Details grid. The system updates the pegging records based on the type of order as follows:

• New planned order: If you create a new planned order for a parent item, the system creates pegging records for the first-level components based on the specified planned order quantity.

• Existing planned order: If you change the adjusted quantity for an existing planned order for a parent item, the system updates the pegging records for the first-level components based on the corresponding BOM batch quantity.

• Firm order: If you change the adjusted quantity for a firm order for a parent item, the system updates the parts list of the first-level components based on the change ratio between the adjusted quantities before and after the change.

Planned orders use the BOM definition (batch quantities, component quantity, UOMs, scrap) and parent item attributes, such as shrink factor and the Round to Whole Numbers flag to identify the first level of components. Firm orders use the data in the Work Order Parts List table (F3111) to identify the first-level components.
