Note A purchase contract line logistic detail line has the same status as its parent purchase contract line logistic data for which the status can be changed in the Purchase Contract Line Logistic Data (tdpur3102m000) session. Position The number of the purchase contract line. Purchase Office A department in your organization that is responsible for buying the materials and services needed by your organization. You assign number groups to the purchase office. In this way, you can assign serial numbers to: Purchase orders Purchase schedules Requests for quotations Purchase contracts You can also define a default warehouse where goods ordered by the purchase office must be delivered. Sequence The number of the purchase contract line detail. Item In LN, the raw materials, subassemblies, finished products, and tools that can be purchased, stored, manufactured, sold, and so on. An item can also represent a set of items handled as one kit, or exist in multiple product variants. You can also define nonphysical items, which are not held in inventory but can be used to post costs or to invoice services to customers. The following are examples of nonphysical items: Cost items (for example, electricity) Service items Subcontracting services List items (menus/options) Carrier/LSP An organization that provides transport services. You can link a default carrier to both ship-to and ship-from business partners. In addition, you can print sales and purchase orders on a packing list, sorted by carrier. For ordering and invoicing, you must define a carrier as a business partner. Internal Processing Time The time required between the recognition of needs and the release of the purchase order. Internal processing time includes document preparation and sourcing. Note If purchase schedules are automatically generated by Enterprise Planning, this field is used in the supplier selection process. Enterprise Planning uses this field, together with the Safety Time and Supply Time fields, to assign a priority to suppliers who can deliver the required item. Related topics Calculating purchase item lead times Determining the planned receipt date Distribution lead time based on the supply calendar Overview of purchase schedule handling Push schedules Internal Processing Time Unit The unit in which the internal processing time is expressed. Safety Time The time that you can add to the normal lead time to protect delivery of goods against fluctuations in the lead time so that an order can be completed before the order's real need date. Note If purchase schedules are automatically generated by Enterprise Planning, this field is used in the supplier selection process. Enterprise Planning uses this field, together with the Internal Processing Time and Supply Time fields, to assign a priority to suppliers who can deliver the required item. Related topics Calculating purchase item lead times Determining the planned receipt date Distribution lead time based on the supply calendar Overview of purchase schedule handling Push schedules Safety Time Unit The unit in which the safety time is expressed. Supply Time The total time required to obtain an item that is forecasted. This time is used to calculate an item's order lead time, based on which a company takes commitment decisions and executes capacity planning and order management. Example For item A, the supplier communicated a supply time of 50 days. This is in fact a reduced lead time and is only possible because a three year forecast is sent to the supplier for this item. If additional quantities are needed, which are not included in the forecast, the supplier needs the full supply time, which is 300 days.

Transportation Time (Days) The transportation time in days, which can be calculated in two ways. LN retrieves the transportation time as follows: If Freight is implemented, which you can define in the Implemented Software Components (tccom0500m000) session, calculation of the transportation time is based on carrier, and routes. Route plans and service levels are not known at this point in time. LN performs the following steps to retrieve the transportation time. If the route, the carrier, the origin, and the destination addresses are known, LN first searches for route plans and then for standard routes with matching routes, carriers, and addresses. If more than one matching route plan or standard route is found, LN selects the route plan or standard route with a transport means group that matches the transport means group of the carrier. If LN still finds more than one route plan or standard route, route plans have priority over standard routes. If only standard routes are found, the standard route is selected following the settings of the Carrier Selection Criterion parameter in the Freight Planning Parameters (fmlbd0100m000) session. If LN still finds more than one route plan, it selects the first one it encounters in the database. If Freight is not implemented, LN takes the transportation time between the ship-from business partner's address and the receiving warehouse's address, based on a relevant distance table (if available) in the Distance Table by City (tccom4137s000) session or in the Distance Table by ZIP Code/Postal Code (tccom4138s000) session. From which of these two sessions the transportation time is retrieved, depends on the value of the Priority Distance Tables field in the COM Parameters (tccom0000s000) session. Related topics Calculating purchase item lead times Determining the planned receipt date Distribution lead time based on the supply calendar Calculated Lead Time (Days) The rough purchase item lead time expressed in days. 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. The calculated lead time is based on the availability type and calendar template that are linked to the following fields: Supply Time Internal Processing Time Safety Time Transportation Time (Days) Note Each time you open or close the current session, LN (re)calculates the calculated lead time. Related topics Calculating purchase item lead times Purchase lead time calculation Full Supply Time The total time required to obtain an item that is not forecasted. This time is used to calculate the full cumulative order lead time for an item, which includes the cumulative lead time of purchased parts. Example For item A, the supplier communicated a supply time of 50 days. This is in fact a reduced lead time and is only possible because a three year forecast is sent to the supplier for this item. If additional quantities are needed, which are not included in the forecast, the supplier needs the full supply time, which is 300 days. Note This field is visible only if the Use Full Supply Time check box is selected in the Purchase Parameters (tdpur0100m000) session.

Note This field is visible only if the Use Full Supply Time check box is selected in the Purchase Parameters (tdpur0100m000) session. Calculated Full Lead Time (Days) The rough purchase full item lead time expressed in days. The calculated full lead time is based on the availability type and calendar template that are linked to the following fields: Full Supply Time Internal Processing Time Safety Time Transportation Time (Days) Note This field is visible only if the Use Full Supply Time check box is selected in the Purchase Parameters (tdpur0100m000) session. Each time you open or close the current session, LN (re)calculates the calculated full lead time. Related topics Calculating purchase item lead times Inbound Lead Time The time interval between the arrival of the items and the actual storage in the warehouse. In this session, this field is displayed for information purposes only. Inbound Lead Time Unit The unit in which the inbound lead time is expressed. Lead Time Horizon The number of days that, together with the current date/generation date, determines whether: LN uses the calculated lead time to determine the planned receipt date. LN uses this calculation when the date for which the lead time is calculated, falls outside the lead time horizon. Planned dates are calculated using the value from the Calc. Lead Time field, which is derived from the company's calendar. LN determines the planned receipt date, taking into account the calendars that are related to the lead time components. LN uses this calculation when the date for which the lead time is calculated, lies between the current date and the lead time horizon. Planned dates are calculated using the individual lead time components with the components' respective calendars.
