These conversions always use the inventory unit as the base unit. An inventory unit therefore applies to all item types, also to item types that cannot be kept in stock.

The calculated lead time is only used to determine the planned receipt date of forecast demand for which no accurate determination of the planned receipt date is yet required.

Preferred This field indicates whether the business partner is preferred or fixed for the item. Note When generating orders, ERP LN first searches for fixed buy-from business partners and then for preferred buy-from business partners by the buy-from business partners' priority, as defined in the Priority field of the current session. If the current field is set to Single Source, and the single source buy-from business partner is not valid at the moment of planned delivery, or cannot deliver the required demand, ERP LN tries to fulfill the demand with planned production orders or planned distribution orders, following the strategy that you defined for the plan item. If the current field is set to Preferred, and none of the buy-from business partners is valid at the moment of planned delivery, or cannot deliver the required demand, ERP LN generates a planned purchase order for an empty buy-from business partner.
