| # Item Order Plan (cprrp0520m000) Use this session to get a time-phased overview of your order planning, which lists overview values for demand and forecast on the one hand, and scheduled receipts (actual orders) and planned supply (planned orders) on the other. Click the Simulate field to change the above values and see what the results are for the projected inventory. The order quantities of the orders that fall in one period are added up. Click the Find button to choose one of a set of predefined period lengths. Instead of selecting a time period, you can also choose to display a detailed overview in which each order is listed separately. You can click Change Company on the Specific menu, to zoom to the Change Company (cpcom1200s000) session. Here you can switch to a different logistical company. Note The Group commands are disabled in this session, because the displayed data is not read directly from a database, but is computed (aggregated) online. If you want to view other data, click Find. If you have started this session by zooming, you can only find and select a record. Note The horizon of the item order plan is equal to the planning horizon, because you must be able to see an order when it is moved from the item master plan to a planned order before you release it. If you move the production plan or the purchase plan to planned orders with the Convert Master Plan to Planned Orders (cprmp2240m000) session, the resulting orders have the order type Production Plan and Purchase Plan in the Item Order Plan (cprrp0520m000) session. Customized items derived from this item To view all transactions for an item and the customized items derived from the item, click the Toggle Item View button. Related topics Order planning, an overview Master planning, an overview To maintain an item master plan To update master-plan data To maintain a resource master plan Forecast Consumption without an Item Master Plan Plan Item An item with the order system Planned. The production, distribution, or purchase of these items is planned in Enterprise Planning based on the forecast or the actual demand. You can plan these items by means of the following: Master-based planning, which is similar to master production scheduling techniques. Order-based planning, which is similar to material-requirements planning techniques. A combination of master-based planning and order-based planning. Plan items can be one of the following: An actual manufactured or purchased item. A product family. A basic model, that is, a defined product variant of a generic item. A group of similar plan items or families is called a product family. The items are aggregated to give a more general plan than the one devised for individual items. A code displayed by the item code's cluster segment shows that the plan item is a clustered item that is used for distribution planning. Search Key I The value of the Search Key I field in the Items - General (tcibd0501m000) session for this item. Search Key II The value of the Search Key II field in the Items - General (tcibd0501m000) session for this item. Period Length The length of the period units that are used for the item order plan. Scenario The identification of an overall planning solution. Each scenario represents one overall planning solution, and involves particular settings for the planning of items and resources. You can use scenarios to analyze and compare various planning options and to find the best planning solution. For example, you can vary demand forecasts or sourcing strategies. One of the scenarios is the actual scenario, which corresponds with the actual planning situation. You can only transfer planned orders and production plans from the actual scenario to the execution level of LN. Related topics Scenarios in Enterprise Planning Scenario This code indicates that LN displays the item order plan for the actual scenario. Cost Price The cost incurred by manufacturing or purchasing a single item (inventory valuation). Note LN retrieves the value of the current field from the Cost Price field in the Items - Costing (ticpr0107m000) session. Time Fence The date to which the time fence extends. You can specify the time fence in the Items - Planning (cprpd1100m000) session. Related topics Horizons and time fences Time fences in order planning and in master planning Planner The employee or department responsible for planning the production, purchase and distribution of items. The planner takes into account the inventory levels, availability of materials, and capacities of resources, and reacts on signals such as rescheduling messages that LN generates. Planner The planner's name. Total Demand The total (forecast and actual) demand displayed in this session. Forecast Time Fence The date to which the forecast time fence extends. You can specify the forecast time fence in the Items - Planning (cprpd1100m000) session. Note The forecast time fence is only used if the item has an item master plan. Related topics Horizons and time fences Time fences in order planning and in master planning Actual Source The actual supply source of the item. If you define a date effectivity line in the Date-Effective Item Data (tcibd0510m000) session, the actual source can be time-dependent. Order Horizon The date to which the order horizon extends. You can specify the order horizon in the Items - Planning (cprpd1100m000) session. Related topics Horizons and time fences Net Change Date The net change date for order planning (see the Items - Planning (cprpd1100m000) session). Related topics Net-change simulations Inventory on Hand The physical quantity of goods in one or more warehouses (including the inventory on hold). Inventory on Hand The unit in which the inventory of an item is recorded, for example piece, kilogram, box of 12, or feet. Inventory units are the base units for inventory management, standard costing, production planning, and so on. Planning Horizon The date to which the planning horizon extends. You can specify the planning horizon in the Items - Planning (cprpd1100m000) session. Whenever you move a plan to planned orders, you must be able to see the orders before you transfer them to execution level. This is why the item order plan uses the planning horizon. If the item does not have an item master plan, the planning horizon is equal to the order horizon. Related topics Horizons and time fences Counter The number of the period. Note that the last period that is displayed is the period with the last transaction that changes the planned inventory. So if the scenario has a horizon of a 100 days (see Scenario Start Date and Scenario Finish Date fields in the Scenarios (cprpd4100m000) session) then only the part over which transactions exist are displayed. Transactions that fall outside of the scenario horizon are ignored. Simulate You can use this field to enter additional demand or an additional supply of the plan item. You can simulate an additional demand by entering a negative quantity. You can simulate an additional scheduled receipt or an additional planned supply by entering a positive quantity. If you want to see the results of the simulation, click the Update icon. Demand The demand for the plan item expressed in the number of items. Note If the Scenario field has the value Detail, you can see where the demand originates in the Order Number field and the Order Type field on the Detail tab. Scheduled Receipts The number of items that you expect to receive according to the orders that are transferred to the execution level. Transferred orders are, for example: production order purchase order warehousing order The number of items is displayed either: By period, if a period is specified in the Scenario field. By order, if the value of the Scenario field is Detail. You cannot change the transferred orders in Enterprise Planning. Note LN retrieves the scheduled receipt data from the Planned Inventory Transactions (whinp1500m000) session. Related topics To transfer orders to the execution level Planned Supply The number of plan items that you expect to receive according to the planned order(s). The number of items is displayed either: By period, if a period is specified in the Scenario field. By planned order, if the value of the Scenario field is Detail. You can change the planned orders for which a number of items is displayed in the current field. Note LN retrieves the planned supply data from the Planned Orders (cprrp1100m000) session. Planned Available The expected inventory level at the end of a plan period. Note that the projected inventory of plan periods that are entirely in the past equals the inventory on hand. ATP The item quantity that is still available to be promised to a customer. In LN, available-to-promise (ATP) is part of a more extended framework of order promising techniques called capable-to-promise (CTP). If an item's ATP is insufficient, CTP goes beyond ATP in that it also considers the possibility of producing more than was initially planned. In addition to the standard ATP functionality, LN also uses channel ATP. This term refers to the availability of an item for a certain sales channel, taking into account the sales limits for that channel. For all other types of order promising functionality used in LN, the term CTP is used. Acronym: ATP Related topics Item ATP Order Type The order type. Order Number This field is filled when you choose a detailed overview, or the period of the planned inventory movements contains only one order. This field contains the order number. Unit Effectivity Number The number of the effectivity unit involved in this transaction. You can define effectivity units in the Effectivity Units (tcuef0502m000) session. Related topics unit effectivity Safety Stock The buffer inventory necessary to meet fluctuations in demand and delivery lead time. In general, safety stock is a quantity of inventory planned to be in inventory to protect against fluctuations in demand or supply. In the context of master production scheduling, safety stock is the additional inventory and capacity planned as protection against forecast errors and short-term changes in the backlog. Order Status The status assigned to a planned order in Enterprise Planning. The order status can either be: Planned Firm Planned Confirmed Warehouse The warehouse in which the items are received, or from which the items are issued. Dependent Demand The site from which the demand originates. Originating Item The plan item from which the demand originates. Business Partner The ship-from business partner. If no ship-from business partner is known, the buy-from business partner is displayed instead. Supplying Site The supplying site. Supplying Item The supplying plan item. Date The end date and time of the period. The displayed periods are defined by the period length (specified in the Scenario field) and the start date of the scenario. The first displayed period starts on the start date of the scenario. The last displayed period is determined by the planning horizon. The period in which the planning horizon falls is the last displayed period. Note If you chose the Detail option in the Scenario field, the last displayed line is the last order that occurs in the order horizon. Project A collection of manufacturing and purchasing actions that are performed especially for a particular customer order. A project is initiated by a customer order for items having a To Order order policy. The purpose of a project is to plan and coordinate the production of these items. For a standard-to-order production, the project is only used to link the item with the customer order. Otherwise, a project can include: Customized item data (BOMs and routings) Project planning (activity planning) A budget is a special type of project. A budget is used to plan and estimate, not to carry out production. Total Demand The unit in which quantities of the item are expressed. Cost Price The currency in which LN expresses the item's cost price. You can define the cost price currency in the Currency field in the Items - Costing (ticpr0107m000) session. Position Dependent on the order type, LN displays the number of the order line. Supply The sum of the scheduled receipts and the planned receipt.
