SUMMARY PART AVAILABILITY INQUIRY

Use this inquiry screen to display time-phased supply and demand for a part grouped by user-defined time buckets. The inquiry can show the projected inventory at the end of a weekly or monthly bucket and the scheduled supply and demand that will affect that availability. You can select a specific time period and view supply and demand using the warehouse, all projects, a top-level project, a selected project, related projects, or a netting group as a selection criterion. Current inventory, scheduled supply and demand, and order-detail information will also be displayed. This application is enabled for all inventory parts, rather than just MRP-planned parts.

Use this screen to view the supply-and-demand schedules in weekly or monthly buckets.

Rev

Enter, or use Lookup to select, the revision of the part number for which you would like to view supply/demand information. You can enter up to three alphanumeric characters, which must be a valid revision number for the part from the Basic Part Data screen in Costpoint Product Definition. A description of the part/revision that you selected will display in the adjacent unlabeled field.

Other Inv Qty

This field displays the total quantities in shipping, inspection, and reinspection locations for the selected part within the specified project(s) and warehouse.

Table Window

Period End Date

This field displays the end date of the period. Weekly time buckets are used and supply/ demand information within that week will be combined and displayed as a sum. The first end-of-period row shows all supply/demand that is past due as of the current date. The second row's period end date depends on which day is selected as the Ending Day of Production Week in the MRP Report Print Options screen. End dates for subsequent rows will be in weekly increments. Depending on the values set in the Summary Report/Inquiry Weekly field in the MRP Report Print Options screen, the time buckets displayed will change from weekly to monthly, and will continue until the value set in Summary Report/Inquiry Monthly is reached, or until the Date Cutoff is reached. Any additional supply/demand beyond this limit is summarized into a single future bucket.

Demand Quantity

This field displays the sum of all the demand quantities (in inventory unit of measure) within the period for the row.

Supply Quantity

This field displays the sum of all the supplies (in inventory unit of measure) within the period for the row.

Supply Yield Quantity

This field displays the supply quantity adjusted for the part's yield factor (Supply Yield Quantity equals Supply Quantity times Yield %). This field is displayed if you have selected the Incl Scrap/Yield % in Planning Process checkbox in the Production Control Settings screen in Costpoint Production Control.

Projected Avail Qty

This field displays the total available quantity after accounting for additional supply and demand. For the first row in the table, Projected Avail Qty equals On Hand Qty plus Other Inv Qty plus Supply Quantity - Demand Quantity (first row). In subsequent rows, Projected Avail Qty equals Projected Avail Qty (previous row) plus Supply Quantity - Demand Quantity (current row). Note that Supply Yield Quantity is used in the calculations instead of Supply Quantity if you selected the Incl Scrap/Yield % in Planning Process checkbox in the Production Control Settings screen in Costpoint Production Control.

Planned Order Qty

This field displays the sum of all the planned orders within the date range of the period for the row.

Planned Reqmt Qty

This field displays the sum of all the demands created as a result of planned orders, and which are within the date range of the period for the row.
