               <ListIntro>DMS does the following:</ListIntro>

               <ListItem>Prioritizes demand based on <Link href="/baanerp/wh/glossary/glossary#000457" role="glossary">planning priority rules</Link>.</ListItem>
               <ListItem>Assigns received goods to demand, according to

         <ListIntro>For SFC production orders, DMS planning can be

		  reporting the operation complete. In this case, however, no cross-dock orders
		  and/or transfer orders will be generated. Instead, the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh/inh/whinh6130m000" role="session">Direct Material Supply Distribution (whinh6130m000)</GUIRef> session will only show current

         <Paragraph>If received goods are required in other warehouses than the
