| Planning Inventory Levels (tctrm1136m000) |  |
| Use this session to define the minimum inventory level and maximum inventory level for a specific time period in the terms and conditions agreement. Note You can only define time-phased inventory levels in this session if the Min-Max Specification field is set to By Quantity in the Planning Terms and Conditions (tctrm1135m000) session. Fixed inventory levels and time-phased inventory levels can be combined. For the periods for which time-phased levels are set up, these inventory levels are applicable. For the remaining periods, the fixed inventory levels from the Planning Terms and Conditions (tctrm1135m000) session are used. Example The terms and conditions agreement is effective from 1 January 2007 through 31 December 2007. For this year, the fixed minimum inventory level is 100. For this year, the fixed maximum inventory level is 500. A time phased inventory level is set up for February with the following data: Start date: 1 February 2007. End date: 28 February 2007. The minimum inventory level is 200. The maximum inventory level is 800. Therefore, the inventory quantities are as follows:
Time period | Minimum inventory level | Maximum inventory level
--- | --- | ---
1 January - 31 January | 100 | 500
1 February - 28 February | 200 | 800
1 March - 31 December | 100 | 500
