| Estimated Material Distribution (ticst0508m000) |  |
| Use this session to view the distribution of materials, that is, the distribution of materials over different effectivity units. Note You cannot manually insert or delete a record. If the production order status is Planned, Documents Printed, or Released, and the estimated costs are not frozen, you can modify the records. Related topics Overview of unit effectivity
Fields | Description
Production Order | An order to produce a specified quantity of an item on a specified delivery date.
Status | The status of the production order.
Position | The position number that identifies the estimated material in the Estimated Materials (ticst0101m000) session.
Item | The item that is used as material in production.
Estimated Quantity | The estimated material quantity for the entire production order.
Estimated Quantity | The unit of measure in which the inventory of an item is recorded, such as piece, kilogram, box of 12, or meter. The inventory unit is also used as the base unit in measure conversions, especially for conversions that concern the order unit and the price unit on a purchase order or a sales order. 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.
Backflushing | If this check box is selected, the materials for the production order are issued through backflushing. Default value The default for this field is the Backflush Materials field in the Estimated Materials (ticst0101m000) session. Serialized items Serialized items can only be backflushed if in the Items - Warehousing (whwmd4500m000) details session the Serials in Inventory check box is cleared, and the Register Serial Issue During As Built field is Yes. In all other cases, serialized items cannot be backflushed. If the serialized item is lot-controlled, the lot from which the items are backflushed is based on the outbound method ( Last In First Out (LIFO), First In First Out (FIFO) ) as is defined in the Items - Warehousing (whwmd4500m000) details session.

Effectivity Unit | A means to control the validity of variations by effectivity units. Unit effectivity enables you to model changes for the following entities: Engineering bill of material Production bill of material Routing Routing operations Supplier selection Sourcing strategies Related topics Overview of unit effectivity
Unit Series | A code that represents a group of one or more effectivity units that applies to the same unit effective item.
Unit Sequence | The position number identifies the estimated material in the Estimated Material Distribution (ticst0508m000) session.
Net Quantity | The net material quantity for the effectivity unit.
Scrap Quantity | The scrap quantity of the material for the effectivity unit.
Estimated Quantity | The estimated material quantity for the effectivity unit. Note The sum of all the estimated material quantities by effectivity unit must equal the estimated material quantity for the entire production order.
