Planning Detail

Planning Type

This field displays the planning type for this part:

Lead Time (Days)

This field displays the total lead time calculated in the Part Lead Time subtask of the Planning Part Data screen (in Costpoint Product Definition).

This quantity is used as the MPS time fence only if the MPS Settings – MPS Time Fence Method is set to “Use Part Lead Time.”

Order Policy

This field displays the order policy type that represents the lot-sizing technique to be used for this part:

Min Qty

This field displays the minimum lot size for specifying that the order will always be at least equal to the specified lot size when meeting net requirements.

Mult Qty

This field displays the multiple lot size for specifying that the order is always a multiple of the specified lot size when meeting net requirements. For instance, a Multiple Quantity of 200 means that quantities of 200, 400, etc. are eligible to be ordered on an order.

Max Qty

This field displays the maximum quantity that can be placed in any one order. If the order quantity is greater than the maximum quantity, it will be split into several orders, each not exceeding the maximum quantity.
