This screen appears in two conversations:  the Simulation Schedule Maintenance conversation (RP140E) and the Key Facility Load Inquiry conversation (MS800E).  To access this screen in the Simulation Schedule Maintenance Detail screen (RP140S02), place your cursor on the Part Number field, and press F4.  To access this screen from the Key Facility Load Inquiry Summary screen (MS800S02), place your cursor on either the Part Number or the Load by Part/Cumulative Load fields and press F4.  The pop-up window displays planning information about the part.  To exit this screen, press the Enter key.

PART NUMBER

Display only.  This field identifies the part whose planning information you requested on the Schedule screen.

PART DESCRIPTION

Display only.  This is the description of the part as it appears on the Part Master File (DE100M).

PLANNER CODE

Display only.  This is the unique code that is assigned to the respective planner.

PLANNER NAME DESCRIPTION

Display only.  This is the planner's name.

PRODUCTION/PART TYPE

Display only.  This field displays the production type and the part type of the part number.  The production types are:

MRP - Manufactured

JIT - Just-in-Time

The part types are:

PUR - Purchased Part

MFG - Manufactured Part

RAW - Raw Material

B/T - Build-Thru Part

TRN - Transfer Part

STOCKKEEPING UNIT OF MEASURE

Display only.  This is the unit of measure in which inventory balances of the part number are carried.

PURCHASING UNIT OF MEASURE

Display only.  This is the unit of measure that is used when this part is ordered from a supplier.

INVENTORY NETTING FLAG

Display only.  This flag is defined on the Part Master File (DE100M).  For MRP parts, it is always set to Y (yes).  For JIT parts, it may display Y or N (no) depending on whether the part's demand should be "netted" against existing inventory when the planning modules create flow schedules and requirements.  JIT purchased and raw material parts will always have a netting flag of Y.

MAKE/BUY FLAG

Display only.  This field specifies whether the part is usually purchased or manufactured.  Valid values are:

1 - Buy

2 - Make

If the value is set to 1 (buy), purchase requisitions will be generated automatically for the part during the planning process.  If the value is set to 2 (make), planned manufacturing orders will be generated for the part.  The Make/Buy flag is relevant only for manufactured items (part type = 2).  For part type 6, the value will be 2 (make).  For part types 1, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, C, K, the value will be 1 (buy).  For part type 2, the value will be 1 (buy) or 2 (make).

REQUIREMENTS PLANNING FIRM HORIZON DATE

Display only.  The date that appears in this field represents the requirements planning firm horizon date for excluding planned activity.

DEMAND CODE

Display only.  This field defines the planning method for the part.  Valid values are:

D - Daily master scheduled part

M - Standard master scheduled part

R - Requirements planning part

S - Service part

MULTI-LEVEL FORECAST FLAG

Display only.  This field is used to explode the part's forecast through the lower levels of the bill of material, provided that this flag is set to Y for the part's components.  (The Multi-Level Forecast Flag drives master scheduling, requirements planning, and purchasing schedules, while it provides for forecasts to be consumed against actual component requirements.)

TARGET INVENTORY DAYS/WEEKS

Display only.  For standard master scheduled parts, the Master Scheduling module plans production such that on-hand inventory will satisfy demand for the specified number of weeks into the future.  For daily master scheduled, requirements planning, and service parts, the Requirements Planning module plans production such that on-hand inventory will satisfy demand for the specified number of days into the future.

NOTE:  If the planning policy code is Fixed Time Period, and the part is daily master scheduled, requirements planning, or service, and target inventory days have been defined for the part, the fixed time period days (the quantity that appears in the Planning Policy Quantity field) will still be used to build stock in advance of demand rather than the target inventory days.  It is suggested for the Fixed Time Period planning policy code, that target inventory days be set to zero because the processing logic for fixed time period overrides the processing logic for target inventory days.

If the planning policy code is Fixed Time Period and the part is standard master scheduled, fixed time period processing logic and target inventory days processing logic can be processed together.

FIXED LEADTIME DAYS

Display only.  This field identifies the number of days that it takes to manufacture or purchase the part.  This number does not fluctuate with order quantity.

CUMULATIVE LEADTIME

Display only.  This is the number of working days that it takes to complete a standard size batch.  It includes procuring any components through completing all manufacturing processes.  The cumulative lead time is used as a means of establishing a planning horizon for the MRP run.

MIX/VOLUME TIME FENCE

Display only.  For standard master scheduled parts, this field represents the number of weeks from the current week during which changes in the mix of products (within a product family) or changes in planned production quantities may not be cost effective or possible.

SOURCING PLANT

Display only.  For a transfer part, the part will exist in the sourcing plant.  Master Scheduling and Requirements Planning will create transfer requisitions in the sourcing plant to meet demand for the part in the current plant.

YIELD FACTOR

Display only.  This is the percentage of scrap material that is anticipated when this part is manufactured or purchased.

PLANNING POLICY CODE

Display only.  Planning policy codes, either system-defined or user-defined, are found on Reference File category 404.

For MRP, Reference, JIT purchase, JIT raw material parts, or JIT manufactured parts with a Make/Buy flag of Buy, the Planning Policy Code must be one of the following:

1 - As Required

2 - Fixed Time Period

3 - Fixed Quantity

5 - Physical Control

If the part is master scheduled (demand code = M), the planning policy code must not be 5.

For other JIT parts, the Planning Policy Code must one of the following:

2 - Fixed Time Period

3 - Fixed Quantity

6 - Partial

7 - Average

PLANNING POLICY QUANTITY

Display only.  This field is used with the Planning Policy Code to define an optimum flow or order size.  For purchased or raw material parts, this quantity should be expressed in stockkeeping units; however, the purchasing units should be taken into account.  Validation rules and uses of the field are as follows:

CODE  ORDER POLICY        QUANTITY

1                            As Required                  Zero

2                            Fixed Time Period         Number of Periods

3                            Fixed Quantity               Order Minimum

5                            Physical Control            Zero

6                            Partial                           Zero

7                            Average                        Zero

NOTE:  If the planning policy code is Fixed Time Period, and the demand code for the part is D (daily master scheduled), R (requirements planning), or S (service), and target inventory days have been defined for the part, the fixed time period days (the quantity that appears in the Planning Policy Quantity field) will still be used to build stock in advance of demand rather than the target inventory days.  It is suggested for the Fixed Time Period planning policy code that target inventory days be set to zero because the processing logic for fixed time period overrides the processing logic for target inventory days.

If the planning policy code is Fixed Time Period and the demand code for the part is M (standard master scheduled), fixed time period processing logic and target inventory days processing logic can be processed together. 

PLANNING POLICY INCREMENT

Display only.  This is the quantity that is to be added to the order quantity once the minimum order quantity is exceeded.  For a fixed time planning policy code (2), this field can only be used to determine a multiple quantity.

MAXIMUM ORDER QUANTITY

Display only.  This is the maximum quantity of this part that can be created in one order.

SAFETY STOCK QUANTITY

Display only.  For MRP parts, a manufacturing order will be created to satisfy this requirement on the initial run of MRP.  For JIT parts, a flow authorization will be created to satisfy this requirement.  Safety stock quantity specifies an inventory balance that you wish to hold on hand in case of emergency situations.  This number should be defined in stocking units of measure.

PLANNING BALANCE

Display only.  This number represents the current on-hand and planning inventory balances.  If the part is potency controlled, potent units are calculated as follows:

SKU for each balance type on each part/lot/location multiple location record

Multiplied by  The actual potency on the Lot Control master record for the part/lot

Divided by     The standard potency percentage on the Part Master record for the plant

COMMAND KEYS
