| Generate Orders (TPOP) (whinh2201m000) |  |
| Use this session to generate orders to replenish items for specific warehouses. ERP LN generates the orders within an order horizon, based on the item and warehouse combination's reorder point, and projected on hand. Note To automatically process warehousing orders of type Transfer (Manual), select the Process Warehousing Transfer Orders check box. If you generate warehousing orders of the type Transfer (Manual), a report is printed with information on the created order. Related topics To generate orders (TPOP) To use From and To fields
Fields | Description
Order Type | A code that identifies the type of a warehousing order. The default warehousing procedure that you link to a warehousing order type determines how the warehousing orders to which the order type is allocated are processed in the warehouse, although you can modify the default procedure for individual warehousing orders or order lines. ERP LN uses the warehousing-order type in the current field to generate warehousing orders. If no warehousing-order type is entered, ERP LN uses the default warehousing-order type from the Default Order Types by Origin (whinh0120m000) session based on the warehouse-from and warehouse-to. Note You can only enter warehousing-order types with transaction type Transfer.
Order Type | The order type determines which sessions are part of the order procedure and how and in which sequence this procedure is executed. Default value ERP LN retrieves the default purchase order type from the Default Order Types by Origin (whinh0120m000) session based on the warehouse-from and warehouse-to.
Number Group | The number group used to generate purchase order numbers.
Order Series | The series used to generate the purchase order numbers.
Factor | The order horizon factor that is defined under TPOP Order Horizon in the Inventory Analysis Parameters (whina0100m000) session. Performance aspects Using this field may result in a considerable increase of records in your system and may impact system performance. For information on limiting data growth and the use of system resources, see SIC and TPOP order horizons
Constant | The order horizon constant that is defined under TPOP Order Horizon in the Inventory Analysis Parameters (whina0100m000) session. Performance aspects Using this field may result in a considerable increase of records in your system and may impact system performance. For information on limiting data growth and the use of system resources, see SIC and TPOP order horizons
Constant | The order horizon constant unit that is defined under TPOP Order Horizon in the Inventory Analysis Parameters (whina0100m000) session.
Include Specifications | If this check box is selected, ERP LN generates supply orders with specifications that match the specification of the demand order. Related topics Allocation and hard pegging in Warehouse Management
Maximum Number of Orders per Requirement | The maximum number of orders that ERP LN can generate for each requirement. If in a warehouse the projected on hand stock of an item falls below the safety stock, there is a requirement for the difference between the projected on hand stock and the safety stock. Various requirements can arise per day. The current field and the Maximum Order Quantity field of the Warehouse - Item (whwmd2110s000) session determine the number of orders per requirement as follows:
    RQ/MOQ = X, unless X > MNOR. If X > MNOR, MNOR = NOR
RQ | Requirement quantity
MOQ | Maximum order quantity
X | The number of orders per requirement, unless X > MNOR
MNOR | The value of the Maximum Number of Orders per Requirement field
NOR | The number of orders per requirement if X > MNOR
Examples
Requirement quantity | 1000 | 1000 | 2000 | 1000 | 1000
Maximum Order Quantity | 250 | 250 | 250 | 250 | 1000
Maximum Number of Orders per Requirement | 4 | 3 | 3 | 7 | 3
Number of orders generated | 4 | 3 | 3 | 4 | 1
Quantity per generated order | 4 x 250 | 2 x 250 and 1 x 500 | 2 x 250 and 1 x 1500 | 4 x 250 | 1 x 1000
You can use this field to generate fewer orders than determined by the Maximum Order Quantity of the Warehouse - Item (whwmd2110s000) session, for example, if you must replenish a quantity larger than your usual quantity without wanting to process more orders.
Combine Warehousing Transfer Orders | If this check box is selected, ERP LN combines order lines with matching header data into a single order.
Combine within Order Interval | If this check box is selected, ERP LN combines all the warehouse orders that fall within the same order interval, into a single order. ERP LN combines the orders that have the same item and order header information. You can define the order interval in the Warehouse - Item (whwmd2510m000) session. If you select the Use Item Ordering Data check box in the Warehouse - Item (whwmd2510m000) session, the order interval is retrieved from the Items - Ordering (tcibd2500m000) session. For each Item - Warehouse combination, the ERP LN combines the warehouse orders in the following manner: ERP LN determines the order interval of the item specified in the first warehouse order. Warehouse orders that fall within the order interval as determined by ERP LN in step 1 are combined into a single order. ERP LN determines the order interval of the item specified in second warehouse order. All other warehouse orders that fall within the order interval as determined by ERP LN in step 2 are combined into a single order. ERP LN continues the process until all the warehouse orders are combined.
Process Warehousing Transfer Orders | If this check box is selected, the transfer orders are processed automatically according to the steps in the warehousing-order type.
Number Group | The number group used to generate warehousing order numbers.
Order Series | The series used to generate the warehousing order numbers.
Number Group | The number group used to generate production order numbers.
Order Series | The series used to generate the production order numbers.
