Collect Runtime Data

Periodically collect data for each new configured item your users add when they create a sales order. Collection gets the on-hand quantity for return orders and canceled order. The quantity affects planning. Specify attributes when you do the Supply Planning Data task.

Attribute	Value
On Hand	Promising uses this entity to get the inventory that's in stock for the model. If all components in the configured item aren't in stock, then Promising won't find availability for the model. For example, assume the schedule requires you to build the item within five days to meet the delivery date. Promising examines the build schedule for each component, the current backlog of purchase orders for component x, and determines component x isn't available for your order until the sixth day.
Purchase Orders and Requisitions Transfer Orders Work Order Supplies	Add these entities so Global Order Promising can get availability across the entire supply chain.
