BON Analysis

BON Calculation.  The number of BON cards is calculated for each part/using cell combination.  The number is determined as follows:

Where:

·     BON Safety Quantity is the quantity of BON cards to be held on reserve, as defined for the part on the Product Structure File.  This reserve stock is held in case all cards are in use when more components are required at a production center.

·     Delivery Freq indicates the number of times that components should be delivered to the production center each day.  A delivery frequency of zero indicates that the number of deliveries is not restricted.

For both CON and BON calculation, all resulting numbers are rounded up to the next integer.
