Design Overview

This module automatically creates replenishment orders for items on an approved, orderable type ‘B' contract based on production dates.

Type B (Plan/No Availability) contracts contain a plan of manufacturing quantity by ready date and dispatch-to location or locations. There are one or more ready dates, which is the date that the items are due at the dispatch-to location. Supplier availability is not required. This program automatically writes POs from the contract based on ready dates.

Prepost cntrordb post – updates the system level variable last_cont_order_date to the current vdate

Restart/Recovery

The logical unit of work is contract no. Records are committed to the database when no of records processed reaches commit_max_counter maintained in RESTART_CONTROL table.

Design Assumptions

  • This module should only be run if contracting is turned on in the system.
