| # Compute Phase Numbers (cprpd6200m000) Use this session to recompute the phase numbers of plan items and plan units. You must recompute the phase numbers after changes in the bill of material (BOM). If you select the Multisite Updating check box and specify a multisite scenario, the computation is performed for all the plan sites of that scenario. The session also checks for cycles in bills of material or cycles in bills of critical materials. See Rules for defining plan units.

Phase No. Type This field determines whether you recompute the phase numbers for master planning or order planning. Related topics To recompute phase numbers Run Type The run type defines whether the computation is carried out in a net change or in a regenerative fashion. Related topics Net-change phase number computation Step Size The amount by which the phase number is increased when the computation procedure detects that the phase number is too low. Default value The default value is 5. The computation of phase numbers is an iterative process. Initially, the phase numbers are set to zero. Then, the computation checks the plan items or plan units according to a certain procedure. Every time the computation detects a phase number which is too low, it increases the phase number by the step size. Plan Unit You can only define a range of plan units, if you selected Master Plan BCM + Supply in the Phase No. Type field. Multisite Updating If this check box is selected, LN performs a multisite phase-number update for the multisite scenario that you specify in the Multisite Scenario field. Related topics Multisite planning To recompute phase numbers Multisite Scenario The multisite scenario of which the plan sites are taken into account for the recomputation of the phase numbers. Allowed values The scenario must be a multisite scenario. A scenario is a multisite scenario if the Central Multi Site Planning check box in the Scenarios (cprpd4100m000) session is selected. LN carries out the phase number computation for the plan sites of the scenario.

Standard Items Only If this check box is selected, only the phase numbers of standard items are updated. Compute Starts the computation. |
