Total quantity of planned orders to be shipped from the source location for an item after inventory rebalancing. |
Yes |
Yes |
Yes |
Yes |
No |
Excess Before Rebalancing |
Excess quantity before inventory rebalancing for an item-location combination. The measure may differ from the Initial Excess for Rebalancing measure if the item-location combination belongs to more than one cluster, and inventory rebalancing has previously been performed for the item-location combination in another cluster. |

No |
No |
Excess After Rebalancing |
Excess quantity after inventory rebalancing for an item-location combination. |
Yes |
Yes |
Yes |
No |
No |
Shortage Before Rebalancing |
Shortage quantity before inventory rebalancing for an item-location combination. The measure may differ from the Initial Shortage for Rebalancing measure if the item-location combination belongs to more than one cluster, and inventory rebalancing has previously been performed for the item-location combination in another cluster.

Yes |
Yes |
Yes |
No |
No |
Rebalanced Inventory Value |
Total value of planned orders recommended after inventory rebalancing. The measure is calculated for an item-location combination through multiplication of the quantity of planned orders by the standard cost of the item. |
Yes |
Yes |
Yes |
No |
No |
Projected Inventory |
Inventory quantity projected in the future for an item-location combination on the basis of the selected supply types and demand types. |
No |
Yes |
Yes |
Yes |
No |
Excess Computation Window |
Time window in days for calculation of the excess inventory for an item-location combination. This measure is calculated by multiplying the lead time by the value in the Lead Time Multiplier for Excess Window field for a cluster on the Manage Planning Clusters page. The lead time is the total of the preprocessing, processing, and postprocessing lead times that are specified for the item-location combination in the Items table. |
Yes |
Yes |
Yes |
No |
No |
Shortage Computation Window |
Time window in days for calculation of the inventory shortage for an item-location combination. This measure is calculated by multiplying the lead time by the value in the Lead Time Multiplier for Shortage Window field for a cluster on the Manage Planning Clusters page. The lead time is the total of the preprocessing, processing, and postprocessing lead times that are specified for the item-location combination in the Items table. |
Yes |
Yes |
Yes |
No |
No |
Reserved Safety Stock |
Portion of the safety stock that's reserved at the location for an item during the computation of the excess inventory. |
No |
Yes |
Yes |
Yes |
No |

Planned Shipments Quantity |
Total quantity of planned orders to be shipped from the location for an item after inventory rebalancing. The measure is functionally similar to the Planned Outbound Shipments measure, but has the Cluster, Organization, Product, and Source dimensions. |
Yes |
Yes |
Yes |
No |
Yes |
Planned Shipments Value |
Total value of planned orders to be shipped from the location for an item after inventory rebalancing.

All these measures are in the Inventory Analysis measure group.
You must add the Cluster and Source dimensions to the dimension catalog of the replenishment plan for which you've selected the Rebalance inventory check box on the Plan Options page.
