Use this application to view the time-phased supply and demand for a part. Current inventory, scheduled supply and demand, and order detail information is displayed, but you can also select and alter planned order data. You can view supply and demand according to warehouse, all projects, top-level project, selected project, related projects, or netting group. This application is enabled for all inventory parts, rather than just MRP planned parts.
Use this screen to view and update the supply and demand schedules created by the MRP process.
Enter, or use Lookup to select, the part number for which you would like to view supply/demand information. This required field of up to 30 alphanumeric characters must have a valid part number from the Basic Part Data screen in Costpoint Product Definition.
Enter, or use Lookup to select, the revision of the part number for which you would like to view supply/demand information. This field can have up to three alphanumeric characters and must be a valid revision number for the part from the Basic Part Data screen in Costpoint Product Definition.

Project Planning Group - Depending upon whether the part is common-stock or not, this will include all supply and demand for inventory projects that are within the same project-planning group as the project specified in the Project field. See the documentation for the MRP Option Code in the MRP Settings screen. If the Include Common Inventory checkbox is selected, the supply and demand for projects that have been specified as common inventory will also be included, even though they may not otherwise meet the project selection criteria.
