Process

These processing options control processing for the Supply/Demand Inquiry program, such as which quantities and document types, as well as forecast and planning data, are included in the inquiry.

1. Deduct Safety Stock From Available Quantity

Specify whether the system displays the safety stock line and decreases the safety stock from the available quantity. Values are:

Blank: Does not deduct safety stock.

1: Deducts safety stock.

2. Receipt Routing Quantities Considered As On Hand

Quantity In Transit

Specify whether the system considers the Quantity in Transit part of the on-hand quantity. In a manufacturing environment, sometimes it is necessary to establish where stock is, in order to determine whether it is available for immediate use. Values are:

Blank: The system displays the Quantity in Transit for the appropriate date.

1: The system includes the Quantity in Transit in the on-hand inventory.

Quantity In Inspection

Specify whether the system considers the Quantity in Inspection part of the on-hand quantity. In a manufacturing environment, sometimes it is necessary to establish where stock is, in order to determine whether it is available for immediate use. Values are:

Blank: The system displays the Quantity in Inspection for the appropriate date.

1: The system includes the Quantity in Inspection in the on-hand inventory.

User Defined Quantity 1

Specify whether the system considers the User Defined Quantity 1 part of the on-hand quantity. This quantity is defined in the Update Operation 1 field on the Receipt Routing Definition form. In a manufacturing environment, sometimes it is necessary to establish where stock is, in order to determine whether it is available for immediate use. Values are:

Blank: The system displays the User Defined Quantity 1 for the appropriate date.

1: The system includes the User Defined Quantity 1 in the on-hand inventory.

User Defined Quantity 2

Specify whether the system considers the User Defined Quantity 2 part of the on-hand quantity. This quantity is defined in the Update Operation 2 field on the Receipt Routing Definition form. In a manufacturing environment, sometimes it is necessary to establish where stock is, in order to determine whether it is available for immediate use. Values are:

Blank: The system displays the User Defined Quantity 2 for the appropriate date.

1: The system includes the User Defined Quantity 2 in the on-hand inventory.

3. Supply/Demand Inclusion Rules

Specify the supply and demand inclusion rules version for the system to use. These rules define the order type, line type and line status. Enter a value from UDC 40/RV (Inclusion Version) that identifies the version to use for processing. Enter an inclusion rule to use as the default value or select it from the Select User Define Code form.

4. Subtract Expired Lot Quantities

Specify whether the system deducts the expired lot quantities from the available quantity. Values are:

Blank: Does not reduce the available quantity.

1: Reduces the available quantity.

This processing option does not work with available to promise lines. If you select value 1 in this processing option, you must set the Available to Promise Line Flag processing option, under the Process 1 tab, to either blank or 2.

5. Enable Engineer to Order (ETO)

Specify whether the system enables Engineer-to-Order (ETO) functionality. Values are:

Blank: Do not enable.

1: Enable.

6. Include Past Due Supply In Quantity Available

Specify if past due quantities are included while calculating available quantity. Values are:

Blank: Do not include.

1: Include.

7. Rate Based Schedule Type

Specify the rate-based schedule type for the system to display. Enter a value from UDC 31/ST (Schedule Type) that identifies the schedule type. If you leave this processing option blank, the system does not display any rate-based schedules.

8. Include MPS/MRP/DRP Planned Orders

Specify whether the system displays planned orders from MPS/MRP/DRP generations. Values are:

Blank: Does not display.

1: Displays.

9. Forecast Types (5 Types Maximum)

Specify which forecast types, up to five, that the system includes in the inquiry. If you leave this field blank, the system does not include any forecast records. Enter multiple forecasts: to enter 01, 02, and BF, type 0102BF.

10. Days From Today To Include Forecast

Specify the number of days (+ or -) from the system date that you want the system to include forecast records. If you leave this processing option blank, the system uses the system date.

11. Exclude Bulk Items

Specify whether the system displays bulk stocking type records. Values are:

Blank: Displays.

1: Does not display.

12. Include Past Due Rates as a supply

Specify whether the system considers open quantities from past due rate schedules as supply. When you enter 1, the system includes past due rate orders in the display. Values are:

Blank: Do not use open quantities.

1: Use open quantities.

13. Forecast Start Date

Specify the Start Date. Values are:

Blank: Use the System Date.

1: Use the Start Date of the current forecast period.

Note: If you enter a 1, the Enable Engineer to Order processing option must be blank.
14. Lot Hold Codes (up to 5)

Specify the lots to be included in the calculation of on-hand inventory. You can enter a maximum of 5 lot hold codes from UDC 41/L (Lot Status Codes).

Blank: Include no held lots in calculation of on-hand inventory.

*: Include all held lots in calculation of on-hand inventory.

15. Excluded Document Types for Forecast Consumption (up to 5)

Use this processing option to exclude up to five sales order document types from consuming the forecast when calculating the quantity available for a forecast consumption item. To exclude more than one sales order, concatenate the values (for example, "STSX..."). Leave this processing option blank to allow all document types to consume the forecast.

16. Location Hold Codes (up to 5) (Release 9.2 Update)

Specify the locations to be included in the calculation of on-hand inventory. You can enter a maximum of five lot location codes (41/LS).

Blank: Include no held locations in the calculation of on-hand inventory.

*: Include all held locations in the calculation of on-hand inventory.
