Generate the schedule.

The Build schedule value reflects the net result after quantities for items in inspection have been netted off against the build schedules.

For items defined with a batching rule of E - Order to maximum if less than minimum (Stock Code Maintenance) the minimum and maximum quantities defined against the warehouse are used to calculate the suggestions made.

Safety stock is applied to the time fence selected in the Requirements Planning Setup program if you selected to include it in the requirements calculation (Requirements Planning Setup).

Report Details

The information is extracted from the Forecast, Sales orders, Build schedule and Inventory warehouse files.

The report lists dependent demand after the cumulative difference (between forecasts and sales orders). The dependent demand is included in the total requirements figure. Further calculations regarding projected available, available-to-promise and suggested build also include this additional demand.
