This screen is used to change the value of planning parameters for the part.

PLANT

Display only.  The plant specified on the Function Select screen.  Information entered on this screen applies only to the part number in this plant.

PART NUMBER

Display only.  The part number specified on the Function Select screen.  Information entered on this screen applies to this item.

DEMAND CODE

Required.  Defines the planning method.  Valid values are:

D - Daily master scheduled part

M - Standard master scheduled part

R - Requirements planning part

S - Service part

TARGET INVENTORY DAYS/WEEKS

Optional.  (This field should only be used for parts having a planning policy code of 1 (as required) or 3 (fixed quantity).  For standard master scheduled parts (demand code = M), the Master Scheduling module plans production such that on-hand inventory will satisfy demand for the specified number of days or weeks into the future.  For daily master scheduled (demand code = D), requirements planning (demand code = R), and service parts (demand code = S), the Requirements Planning module plans production such that on-hand inventory will satisfy demand for the specified number of days into the future.  For JIT manufactured or build-thru parts, the greater of the Target Inventory Days or Stock Queue Days (which is found on DE100S05) is used to build anticipation stock.  If Target Inventory Days is used, however, then target inventory demand records will still be generated and displayed on the RP Planning Action Report records.

NOTE:  If the planning policy code is Fixed Time Period, and the part is daily master scheduled, requirements planning, or service, and you have defined target inventory days 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.

PLANNER CODE

Optional.  Defines the planner who is responsible for the part.

CONSUMPTION CODE

Required.  This field defines how actual demand will be netted against demand that is forecasted.  Valid values are:

0 - No consumption of forecast

1 - Consume Sales Orders/Transfer Orders/Transfer Requisitions only

2 - Consume Component Requirements/Flow Requirements only

3 - Consume all requirements found in option 1 and 2.  If you do not enter a value, the field will default to 0.

PLANNING POLICY CODE

Required.  Planning policy codes are defined 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 standard 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

Optional.  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.  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 you have defined target inventory days 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

Optional if the Planning Policy Code is 2 or 3.  Enter the quantity that is to be added to order quantity once the minimum order quantity is exceeded.  When you select the fixed quantity planning policy code, the flow authorization will be set to a multiple of the order policy quantity (and increment, if specified).  The net requirement is increased (never decreased) to the next multiple of the order policy quantity (if the order policy increment is zero) or by the order policy increment, until the net requirement is satisfied.  For purchased or raw material parts, this quantity should be expressed in stockkeeping units of measure.  However, if the stockkeeping units are different than the purchasing units, the planning policy quantity should be expressed taking into account the purchasing units.

For a fixed time planning policy code (2), this field can only be used to determine a multiple quantity.

MAXIMUM ORDER QUANTITY

Required.  This is the maximum quantity of this part that can be created in one order.  If the Planning Policy Code is set to fixed quantity (3), the maximum order quantity must not be less than the quantity displayed in the Planning Policy Quantity field, assuming this quantity is greater than zero.  In addition, if the Planning Policy Code is set to fixed time (2), the maximum order quantity must not be less than the Planning Policy Increment, if both fields were specified.  This field will default to zero if you do not enter a quantity.

BATCH QUANTITY

Optional.  Defaults to 1.  Must be greater than or equal to 1.  The quantity specifies the amount you typically make in one run of the manufacturing process.  If you do not use batch sizing, let the batch quantity default to 1.  When you create a manufacturing order, you will specify some multiple of the batch size for the order quantity.

LEADTIME CODE

Required.  Indicates the method for computing lead time.  Valid values are:

F - Fixed lead time

V - Variable lead time

Purchased parts always use fixed leadtime days and dock to-stock lead time in calculating the overall lead time for a purchase order.  Therefore, a leadtime code of 'F' should be entered for a purchased or raw material part.  By setting the leadtime to 'V' (variable) for a parent part, the Manufacturing Order Post program (IC102E) will actually override the MO start date, based on leadtime, with an MO start date equal to the first operation start date if the following conditions exist:

      The order is configured and

      Labor requirements were generated by rules (PMFAMR = 1 or 3) or another part's standard routing was used (PMSTBC not equal to blanks).

FIXED LEADTIME DAYS

Optional.  The portion of the days that it takes to manufacture or purchase the part that does not vary with order quantity.

SETUP DAYS

Optional.  Number of setup days required to manufacture one batch of this part.

RUN UNITS

Optional.  For MRP parts, it is the number of elapsed labor or machine days required to manufacture one unit of this part.

For JIT parts, it is the load incurred to the production center to manufacture one unit of this part.  This load is expressed in the unit of measure of the capacity of the production center.

TRANSIT DAYS

Optional.  The number of days spent in moving a batch of the part between operations.

FORCE PRINT OPTION

Required.  If set to 'Y', the part will always appear on the Requirements Planning Action Report, regardless of whether any exceptions are detected while planning for the part.  If set to 'N', the part will appear on the RP Planning Action Report only if exceptions are detected for the part or if the planner elects to review all parts.

MASTER SCHEDULE LOAD QUANTITY

Required.  This field represents an average production quantity for Master Scheduled parts.  Master Scheduling uses this quantity in Rough Cut Capacity Planning to calculate the load at each key facility against the tentative or final master schedule.  The Master Schedule Load Quantity is not used for costing purposes.

CUMULATIVE LEADTIME

Optional.  Number of working days that it takes to complete a standard size batch from procurement of any components through completion of all manufacturing processes.  The cumulative lead time is used as a means of establishing a planning horizon for the MRP run.

REQUIREMENTS PLANNING FIRM HORIZON DAYS

Optional.  If you enter a number in this field it represents the number of working days added to today's date to yield the Requirements Planning firm horizon for excluding planned activity.

You may not enter a negative number in this field.  You may enter a negative number only in the MRP Firm Horizon Date or Days field on the Requirements Planning Generation Request screen (RP110S01).

MIX TIME FENCE

Optional.  For parts that are master scheduled, the Mix Time Fence should represent the number of weeks from the current week during which changes in the mix of products (within a product family) planned to be produced may not be cost effective or possible.

VOLUME TIME FENCE

Optional.  For parts that are master scheduled, the Volume Time Fence should represent the number of weeks from the current week during which changes in planned production quantities may not be cost effective or possible.
