Endorsement Allocation

 

Automatic allocation by Repetitive Supply will only occur for parts that have a part type of purchase (1) or raw (3); have a valid planner code; are not job controlled; and that have a PO generation mode equal to one of the following:

1, 7 - Allocation by rank mode (7 reserved for RS VDA parts only)

2, 8 - Allocation by planned quantity not accounted for (8 reserved for RS VDA parts only)

3, 9 - Allocation by planned or budget quantity (9 reserved for RS VDA parts only)

4, A - Allocation by rank mode  (The firm horizon is extended to the last day of the week.) (A reserved for RS VDA parts only)

5, B - Allocation by planned quantity not accounted for  (The firm horizon is extended to the last day of the week.) (B reserved for RS VDA parts only)

6, C - Allocation by planned or budget quantity  (The firm horizon is extended to the last day of the week.) (C reserved for RS VDA parts only)

The parts to be processed by Repetitive Supply are selected during RP generation.

Requisitions eligible to be allocated are:

·     Planned requisitions associated with the selected parts (the requisitions should have been generated by Requirements Planning).

·     Planned requisitions with a due date greater than the run date.

-     The due date must exist in the  manufacturing plant’s calendar.

-     The dock-to-stock lead time is subtracted from the due date.  If the resulting date is earlier than the run date, it is set to equal the run date.

-     The quantity to be allocated is equal to the due quantity minus the covered quantity.

Endorsements that can be used to allocate requisitions (valid at a certain time between the run date and the requisition due date) are those that meet the following criteria:

·     The vendor must exist in the Vendor Master File.

·     The vendor must have a blank hold code.

·     The Item/Vendor Relationship must be active, and the Relationship Hold Code must not be Yes.

·     The endorsement planned quantity in stockkeeping units of measure (SKU) must not be equal to zero if the PO generation mode is 2, 3, 5, 6, 8, 9, B, or C (planned quantity not accounted for or planned quantity).  It is impossible to allocate more than the planned quantity to one requisition.

·     If the PO generation mode is 1, 4, 7, or A (rank) or 3, 6, 9, or C (planned quantity), the endorsement quota is used in the allocation of every requisition.  However, if the PO generation mode is 2, 5, 8, or B (planned quantity not accounted for), the endorsement will no longer be used in the allocation process once the planned quantity has been reached.

·     The rank and limit of rank of the endorsement must not be blank if the PO generation mode is 1, 4, 7, or A.

·     The total number of releases on the purchase order line associated with the endorsement must not have been reached.

·     The total ordered quantity or the total received quantity of the purchase order line (whichever is greater) plus the PU minimum quantity of the endorsement rounded by the PU increment must be less than the maximum line quantity of the purchase order line.

Note:    If requisitions are added manually for Repetitive Supply parts, they will be purged at the beginning of the requirements planning job stream¾regardless of their status.
