Example of Supply Creation
The planning process aggregates unmet demands based on the attributes selected for Demand Grouping in Attributes for Planned Orders of the attribute-based netting rules. Let's understand this with an example.
Let's assume that the attribute-based netting rule and the item associated with the plan have these configurations:
-
Reservation Level: Project group
-
Item Hard Pegging Level: Project and Task
-
Item Fixed Order Quantity: 40
Attributes for Planned Orders | |
Demand Grouping | Striping |
Project Group | Project Group |
Project | |
Task |
Here's the supply recommendation for unmet demands:
In this example, the planning process identifies an aggregated unmet demand of 20 units at the project group level on Day 1 and Day 3.
The process considers the fixed order quantity and creates a planned order of 40 units for Day 1 and Day 3. The planned orders acquire the project and task attributes of the first project demand.
The process allocates the remaining 20 units from Day 1 to the demand on Day 2 and 20 units from Day 3 to the demand on Day 4.
