Inventory Project Selection

Use this table window to specify the projects from which you want to retrieve information.

Field	Description
Option	Use the drop-down list to select a project grouping option to define which inventory projects to view. The following options are available: All Projects: This will include inventory supply and demand from all projects. Netting Group: This will include all supply and demand for inventory projects having the same netting group as the one specified in the Netting Group field. If you selected the Include Common Inventory check box, the supply and demand for projects that have been specified as common inventory will also be included, even though they may not have the same netting group. 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 check box 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. Top-Level Project: This will include all supply and demand for inventory projects that have the same top-level project as the project specified in the Project field. If you selected the Include Common Inventory check box, the supply and demand for projects that have been specified as common inventory will also be included, even though they may not have the same top-level project. Single Project: This will include all supply and demand for the inventory project specified in the Project field. If you selected the Include Common Inventory check box, the supply and demand for projects that have been specified as common inventory will also be included.

If this check box is cleared and you clicked Execute, the CTW information loads based on actual supply order values, otherwise the CTW information loads using suggested quantities and due dates from MRP action messages. This applies to Reschedule Order (RO), Decrease Quantity (DQ) and Cancel Order (CO) messages. If this option is changed, you have to refresh the CTW by using the Execute action in order to see the updated information. Note: This is only a view, and suggested changes to the order must still be made, manually or implemented in the Action Message screen, before the changes take effect.
