| # Order and order planning exception messages Order exception messages are item exception messages that refer to the planning and execution of orders (or the supply plan in master planning). Some order exception messages are only generated for planned orders, while other order exception messages are also created for orders that have already been transferred to the execution level. There are the types of order exception messages: Group order exception messages A number of groups of order exception messages can be distinguished: Additional Lead Time exception messages and Confirmed Quantity exception messages. Order quantity exception messages Order quantity exception messages are related to the lot-size rules specified for an item (see the Item - Ordering (tcibd2100s000) session). This kind of exception message warns you that an order or a production plan does not follow these lot size rules. You can use the following sessions to analyze and resolve these exception messages: Items - Ordering (tcibd2500m000) Item Master Plan (cprmp2101m000) Item Order Plan (cprrp0520m000) Planned Orders (cprrp1100m000) Order planning exception messages Order planning exception messages are related to the planning of production orders, purchase orders, and distribution orders. You can use the following sessions to analyze and resolve these exception messages: Item Master Plan (cprmp2101m000) Item Order Plan (cprrp0520m000) Planned Orders (cprrp1100m000) Note All exception messages are only generated for the first occurrence unless stated otherwise. Confirmed Quantity signals The exception messages that are logged when one or more of the following concepts are implemented: vendor managed inventory (VMI), Use Confirmation (Purchase), or Use Confirmation (Sales). Confirmed quantity is late The confirmed date has been changed to a later date. Confirmed quantity is early The confirmed date has been changed to an earlier date. Confirmed quantity is higher The confirmed quantity has been increased. Confirmed quantity has been decreased The confirmed quantity has been decreased. Order quantity exception messages Order Quantity < Minimum The order quantity, or the production plan in a certain plan period, is lower than the Minimum Order Quantity specified in the Items - Ordering (tcibd2500m000) session. Note Only applies to planning standard items. Order Quantity > Maximum The order quantity is higher than the Maximum Order Quantity specified in the Items - Ordering (tcibd2500m000) session. Note Only applies to planning standard items. Order Quantity <> Increment The order quantity, or the production plan in a certain plan period, is not a multiple of the order increment specified in the Items - Ordering (tcibd2500m000) session. This message is given in: Mater Planning If the channel is empty for the item master plan but not for the channel master plan. If the production plan or purchase plan is not equal to zero. The order quantity increment is not equal to zero. If the production or purchase plan quantity in the master plan is not a multiple of the order quantity increment. If the difference between the production or purchase plan quantity and the quantity rounded to increment is greater than the tolerance percentage defined in the Exception Message Types by Planner (cprao1110m000) session. Order Planning If the order quantity is not equal to zero. If the order quantity increment is not equal to zero. Note This exception message is only generated for standard items. This exception message is not generated for the purchase plan during master-based planning if it has been generated for the production plan. Order Quantity <> Fixed/Economic The order quantity differs from either the fixed order quantity if the item's order method is Fixed Order Quantity or the economic order quantity if the item's order method is Economic Order Quantity. The parameters involved are defined in the Items - Ordering (tcibd2500m000) session. Total Supply > Total Requirements The total supply (planned orders + actual orders + inventory) quantity exceeds the total requirement (forecast, planned orders, actual orders, safety stock) quantity. This can be caused by the lot sizing rules. Order planning exception messages Item Supplier Error An error occurred with respect to purchase planning. The nature of the error is specified in the exception message. Transfer Late If the planned start date is earlier than the current date, and the planned order should already have started, this exception message is always logged. The tolerance days defined for this message are not applied. If the planned start date falls after the current date, but within the time fence, then this exception message is logged but tolerance days are applied. You can transfer planned orders in the Transfer Planned Orders (cppat1210m000) session. Alternatively, you can transfer a planned order directly from the Planned Order (cprrp1600m000) session. Planning failed The planning process could not be completed, because Enterprise Planning did not have sufficient information. This error occurs, for example, if a calendar is missing. Item planned before first allowed order date The start date of a planned order is before the first allowed order date. You can specify a general value for the first allowed order date in the First Allowed Order Date field in the Items - Ordering (tcibd2500m000) session. You can also specify a warehouse-specific value in the Warehouse - Item (whwmd2510m000) session that applies if the item is delivered from that warehouse. Note Warehouse specific values can be specified for all the fields in the Items - Ordering (tcibd2500m000) session. Cancel Order Part of the order or part of the supply plan can be canceled, because there is no demand for it (for example, because a sales order has been canceled). The exception message includes an indication of the quantity that is superfluous. This type of exception signal is generated (starting with the last order or plan period) when: On the end date of the last (planned or actual) order, the projected inventory is higher than the inventory plan or the safety stock (in order planning). At the end of the last plan period, the projected inventory is higher than the inventory plan (in master planning). You can let LN automatically process a Cancel Order exception message in the Process Exception Messages (cprao1220m000) session, if you select the Auto Process check box in the Signal Types - by Planner (cprao1110m000) session. Reschedule In Part of the order must be delivered earlier. The quantity attached to the exception message indicates the quantity to be rescheduled; the exception message itself states to which date this quantity must be rescheduled. If the Only Reschedule Total Order Quantity check box in the EP Parameters (cprpd0100m000) session is selected, the quantity indicated is always equal to the total order quantity. This type of exception message is only generated as part of an order planning. If you generate an order planning, LN can automatically process a Reschedule In exception message in the Process Exception Messages (cprao1220m000) session when the Auto Process check box in the Exception Message Types by Planner (cprao1110m000) session is selected. Reschedule Out Part of the order can be delivered later (for example, because of postponed customer orders). The quantity attached to the exception message indicates the quantity to be rescheduled; the exception message itself states to which date this quantity must be rescheduled. If the Only Reschedule Total Order Quantity check box in the EP Parameters (cprpd0100m000) session is selected, the quantity indicated is always equal to the total order quantity. This type of exception message is only generated as part of an order simulation. If you generate an order planning, LN can automatically process a Reschedule Out exception message in the Process Exception Messages (cprao1220m000) sesion when the Auto Process check box in the Exception Message Types by Planner (cprao1110m000) session is selected. Order in Order Interval One of the following situations has occurred: A (planned or actual) production-order line falls within the order interval of the previous (planned or actual) production-order line. A (planned or actual) purchase-order line falls within the order interval of the previous (planned or actual) purchase-order line. The actual exception message includes a date indicating the order interval, expressed as the date on which the order interval of the previous order (line) ends. The order interval (in days) is specified in the Item - Ordering (tcibd2100s000) session. Finish Date > Requirement Date The planned order line's delivery date is later than the requirement date, so that the order will be delivered late. Transfer Failed This exception message is only logged when the transfer of planned production orders is triggered by the SCS Planner in case of automatic transfer. The nature of the error is specified in the exception message. Additional Lead Time signals When the planned finish date of the planned order is in time to meet the requirement date, there can still be a problem because of additional lead times which are not included in the planned order. LN checks these additional lead times in the sequence indicated below. Only the first applicable exception message will be logged. Consequently the next additional lead time elements are not planned. Order in Outbound Lead Time The planned order line's finish date falls within the outbound lead time of the warehouse. There is not enough room between the finish date and the requirement date to plan the outbound lead time of the warehouse. Order in Inbound Lead Time The planned order line's finish date falls within the inbound lead time of the warehouse. There is not enough room between the finish date and requirement date to plan the inbound lead time of the warehouse. Order in Extra Lead Time The planned order line's finish date falls within the extra lead time. There is not enough room between the finish date and requirement date to plan the previous additional lead time elements and the extra lead time specified in the Items - Planning (cprpd1100m000) session. Order within Safety Time The planned order line's finish date falls within the safety time. There is not enough room between the delivery date and the requirement date to plan the previous additional lead time elements and the safety time specified in the Items - Planning session. No time to plan Item-Purchase Business Partner's safety time (Item Supplier Error) The planned order line's finish date falls within the safety time of the business partner. There is not enough room between the order line's finish date and the actual requirement date to plan the previous additional lead time elements and the business partner's safety time.
