      <Paragraph>The <GUIRef href="" role="manual">Fixed Date Check</GUIRef> command offers the same
		ATP overview report as the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp/rrp/cprrp4800m000#where.available.check" role="manual">Where Available</GUIRef> command. The <GUIRef href="" role="manual">Fixed Date Check</GUIRef> command displays the availability on a specific date across
		multiple warehouses.</Paragraph>
      <Paragraph>The fixed-date check is specially designed for sales order
		entry.</Paragraph>
      <Paragraph>Where the where-available view shows the entire availability
		across multiple sites, the fixed date check provides a view of only those
		default warehouses required to deliver the complete sales order line quantity.
		The where-available view and the fixed date check differ in no other way. In
		addition, in this case, you cannot perform component CTP checks or capacity CTP
		checks.</Paragraph>
      <Paragraph>If a sales order line entry is blocked by the ATP of the item,
		you can zoom to the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp/rrp/cprrp4800m000" role="session">ATP Handling (cprrp4800m000)</GUIRef> session and request a
		fixed date check. This check can result in a transfer between warehouses or a
		direct delivery to the customer.</Paragraph>
      <Paragraph>For a direct delivery from the warehouse where ATP is found,
		specify the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp/rrp/cprrp4800m000#e.ordering.wareh" role="manual">Default Warehouse</GUIRef> field.</Paragraph>
      <Paragraph>For warehouse transfers from the warehouse where the ATP is
		found to the asking warehouse, LN takes the supply time into account.</Paragraph>
      <List>
         <ListIntro>For the fixed date check, three situations can apply in cases
		  in which the required quantity is greater than the ATP for a plan item in a
		  specific cluster:</ListIntro>
         <ListItem>The demand is less than the sum of the ATP for all related
		  (clustered) items</ListItem>
         <ListItem>The demand is equal to the sum of the ATP for all related
		  (clustered) items</ListItem>
         <ListItem>The demand is greater than the sum of the ATP for all related
		  (clustered) items</ListItem>
      </List>
      <Paragraph>If the demand is less than the sum of the ATP for all related
		(clustered) items, the ATP does not have to be consumed entirely to meet with
		the demand.</Paragraph>
      <Paragraph>A decision must be made which warehouse will handle the supply.
		The item and warehouse that will deliver the supply first is based on the
		supply priorities as defined in the supplying relationships.</Paragraph>
      <Paragraph>If the demand is equal to the sum of the ATP for all related
		(clustered) items, the entire ATP will be consumed.</Paragraph>
      <Paragraph>If the demand is greater than the sum of the ATP for all related
		(clustered) items, the same applies as in the previous situation. The demand
		which is not met simply disappears. The sales order line quantity, therefore,
		is smaller than the originally ordered quantity.</Paragraph>
