Reservations
A reservation is a link between a supply document and a demand document.
For example, you can create a reservation for a demand document type of sales order against a supply document type of purchase order. The reservation creates the association between these two documents and ensures that the specified quantity of an item is available on a certain date. Production Scheduling respects reservations while creating a schedule.
You can see the supply reservations in the Dispatch List tab. You can view the Reservation details for the components in Oracle Manufacturing using the link to Work Order details.
Following types of reservations are supported (Supply → Demand):
Work Order |
|
On-hand |
|
Purchase Order |
|
Transfer Order |
|
The consideration of reservations within Production Scheduling are as follows:
- Work order components can be reserved to supplies and work orders can be reserved to demands such as sales orders.
- Nonwork order reservations are considered. Therefore, the appropriate supplies are netted out of the schedule.
- Reservations for work orders that aren't in the schedule scope aren’t considered.
- Reservations are defined in Oracle Fusion Cloud Supply Chain Planning and can't be modified or removed in Production Scheduling.
- You can see the sum of the demand reservation quantity that a work order is reserved to in the Reserved Quantity column.
