Fields
General
A
C
D
Dampener Period Current
Specifies the current period of time during which you do not want the planning system to propose to reschedule existing supply orders.
Dampener Quantity Current
Specifies the current dampener quantity to block insignificant change suggestions for an existing supply, if the change quantity is lower than the dampener quantity.
E
L
Lead Time Calculation New
The new value of the lead time calculation. This value is written back to the master data when the planning calibration is issued.
Lot Accumulation Period Current
Defines the current period in which multiple demands are accumulated into one supply order when you use the Lot-for-Lot reordering policy.
I
Inbound Whse. Handling Time
Indicates the time required to add items to the available inventory after the items have been booked as “delivered”.
Calculation
The calculation basis is the corresponding location. Without Stock Keeping Unit, the location from the company information applies. If no suitable location was found, the inventory setup applies.
Include Inventory
Includes inventory in the projected available balance when replenishment orders are calculated.
M
Maximum Order Quantity Current
Specifies the current maximum allowable quantity for an item order proposal
Minimum Order Quantity Current
Defines the current minimum allowable quantity for an item order proposal
N
No. of Orders placed
The no. of orders placed during the usage period. When you drill down, the corresponding purchase orders are displayed. The same functionality can be found in the item card.
Calculation
All active and archived purchase orders within the consumption period. In the case of the median, the number of orders is the median of the individual usage periods.
O
Order Multiple Current
Defines the current parameter used by the planning system to modify the quantity of planned supply orders
Overflow Level Current
Specifies the current quantity you allow projected inventory to exceed the reorder point, before the system suggests to decrease supply orders.
P
Q
Quantity Indicator
Displays the largest difference between the calculated values and the current/new values. The corresponding threshold values are stored in the bitmap setup.
R
Reorder Point Calculated
Reorder point calculated by the planning calibration.
Calculation
Reorder Point = A * (B+C) * D + E A = Avg. Qty. Usage in Period B = Lead Time Calculation in days C = “Inbound Whse. Handling Time” in days D = (1+Surcharge from demandPlus+ Setup/100%) E = “Safety Stock Quantity” Rounded with rounding precision
Reorder Point New
The new value of the reorder point. This value is written back to the master data when you issue the planning calibration.
Reorder Quantity Calculated
The calculated value of the reorder quantity.
Calculation
For the exact calculation of the reorder quantity see Inventory Costs
Reorder Quantity New
The new value of the reorder quantity. This value is written back to the master data when the planning calibration is issued
Rescheduling Period Current
Defines the current period within which any suggestion to change a supply date always consists of a Reschedule action and never a Cancel + New action.
S
Safety Lead Time Current
Defines the current date formula to indicate a safety lead time that can be used as a buffer period for production and other delays.
Safety Stock Quantity New
The new value of the safety stock quantity. This value is written back to the master data when the planning calibration is issued.
Source Type
Specifies the source type for the Source No. displayed in the “Item No.” field. Can be either “Item” or “Stock Keeping Unit”. When working with Locationfilter or Variant Filter, the system expects inventory data.
Stock Value Indicator
Displays the largest difference between the calculated values and the current/new values. The corresponding threshold values are stored in the bitmap setup.
T
Time Bucket Current
Specifies the current time period that defines the recurring planning horizon used with Fixed Reorder Qty. or Maximum Qty. reordering policies.
U
V
W
Workdays
The number of workdays within the usage period.
Calculation
The basic calendar from the corresponding location is used as the basis for calculation, if possible. Otherwise, the basic calendar from the company information is used. Without a basic calendar, no planning calibration can be calculated. In the case of the median, the workdays is the median from the individual usage periods.
Planning Calibration
Period Lines
Active
Shows whether the line is active or not. If the calculated values are transferred to planning calibration, the corresponding line is active. If there is more than one usage period, the median is always active in the calculation.
Shortcut Fields
It is possible to transfer fields from the item table or Stock Keeping Units to all areas of the planning calibration. You can find the setup either in the Assisted Setup or in the demandPlus+ setup.
