The Detail screen allows you to see simulated schedules, summarized into periods, based upon the selections you made on the Function Select screen.  This screen allows you to manipulate schedules by changing the quantities in the simulated supply fields for the part, to see how these changes will affect projected inventory.

Once you have modified the part's simulated schedule, you can rerun Requirements Planning Generation in simulation mode to see how your changes affect lower level components.

If you place your cursor on the Part Number field and press F4, the Part Planning Information screen (PLNS01) will appear, displaying the part's planning information.

If you place your cursor on any of the Total Demand buckets and press F4, the Demand Breakdown Window (RP146S01) will appear, identifying the source of demand for a particular bucket.

If you make any changes to the summarized schedule, you will need to change the detail records that support the summarized schedule.  If you entered Y in the Planned Order Override field on the Function Select screen, and if a planned order can be changed to meet the requirements in the period, the system will change the order automatically.  If a planned order cannot be changed, a detail window (Simulation Maintenance Supply Window (RP145S02)) will appear forcing you to adjust existing orders.  You may also use this window to create additional simulated planned orders or modify any existing orders.  To display this screen, place your cursor on any of the time period fields and press F4.

PLANT

Display only.  This field identifies the plant in which maintenance/inquiry will be done.  The plant must be valid, and you must be authorized to the manufacturing company/warehouse associated with the plant (Reference File category 409).  It defaults to the plant assigned to your user ID, but may be changed by pressing F17.

PART NUMBER

Display only.  If you entered a specific part number on the Function Select screen, this part only will be displayed.  Otherwise, all parts that match the criteria that you entered on the Function Select screen will be displayed.  Only active, non-standard master scheduled parts whose part type is not planning, reference, non-stock, non-standard, or bundled will be displayed.

BY-PASS FLAG

Required.  Valid values are Y (yes) or N (no).  This field is the flag for the part.  If Requirements Planning Generation is run in simulation mode, it will skip any part whose By-Pass flag is set to Y.  Conversely, if the flag is set to N, then the part will be processed during Requirements Planning Generation.  If the Part By-Pass flag on the Function Select screen is Y, any changes to the simulated schedule for the part will set the part's By-Pass flag to Y automatically.

SIMULATED SUPPLY

Optional.  If a quantity appears in the Over Due field, it indicates the total simulated supply of the part that is due prior to today.  (This is the yielded supply quantity, NOT the order quantity.  The order quantity can be seen in the Simulation Maintenance Supply Window.)  If a quantity appears in any of the Time Period fields, it indicates the total simulated supply of the part for that period.  If any of the quantities in the fields are highlighted, it means that open, firm, planned, or released orders exist. 

If you wish to see the breakdown of supply, press F4.  The Simulation Maintenance Supply Window (RP145S02) will appear.

If you entered N (no) in the Planned Order Override field on the Function Select screen, and you enter a quantity in the Simulated Supply fields, the Simulation Maintenance Supply Window will appear.  If you entered Y (yes) in the Planned Order Override field, the program will first try to adjust any planned orders and then cause the Simulation Maintenance Supply Window to appear.  A planned order will be added if no non-planned orders exist.

Note the following exceptions:  For a JIT manufactured/build-thru part whose Make/Buy flag is Make, the program will modify schedules only if it is in daily intervals and if no quantities are in the overdue bucket.  All other changes must be made in the Simulation Maintenance Supply Window.  For all parts, if the part's Status Code on the Part Master prohibits the addition of new orders for the order type that Master Scheduling or Requirements Planning would create for the part, changes to the schedule must be done in the Simulation Maintenance Supply Window.

TARGET INVENTORY

Display only.  This is the quantity that you wish to have in stock.  The quantity is calculated by the Requirements Planning Generation or the Batch Forecast Generation Programs.

PROJECTED INVENTORY

Display only.  This field reflects the inventory that will be available at the end of the period.  If a quantity appears in the Over Due field, it is calculated as follows: Planning Balance plus Past Due Simulated Supply minus Past Due Total Demand plus By-Product Receipts for the period

If a quantity appears under any of the Time Period fields, it is calculated as follows: Projected Inventory from the prior period plus Simulated Supply for the period minus Total Demand for the period plus By-Product Receipts for the period

ACTUAL SCHEDULE

Display only.  This field reflects actual orders that are overdue or the total of actual orders for each of the time periods.

TOTAL DEMAND

Display only.  This field represents demand for the period.  It is the sum of sales orders, Synchro offset releases, and either simulated component requirements, transfer requisitions, transfer orders, or flow requirements, if any exist, or actual component requirements, transfer requisitions, transfer orders, or flow requirements, if any exist.  If no simulated records are found, the program assumes that either the part is an end item, has only parents that are standard master scheduled, or that simulation has never been run for any of the part's parents.  If any of the aforementioned is true, the actual demand records listed above will be used.  If you wish to see the source of demand for a particular bucket, place your cursor on that bucket and press F4.  The Demand Breakdown Window (RP146S01) will appear.

COMMAND KEYS

F2    - Display a window where a fast path option or a mnemonic can be entered.  Fast path allows the next menu selection to be made directly from this screen.  When the window is displayed, pressing F3 will remove it.

F3    - Exit program without processing the entered data.

F4    - Placing the cursor in the subfile and pressing F4 will allow access to the Planning window.  Pressing the Enter key from this window will return control to the Schedule screen.

F6    - Display the next screen.

F7    - Access the Planning Action Review Function Select screen.

F9    - Access the Requirements Review Function Select screen.

F10   - Return to the Function Select screen without processing the entered data.

F11   - Access the Key Facility Inquiry Function Select screen.

F13   - Access the Simulation Reconciliation Function Select screen.

F15   - Access the Planner's Comment screen.

F24   - Display additional command keys that are valid for the current screen.
