The Forecast Shortage MRR Notification (FSMN) can be used to alert users if identified shortages of a forecast run will arrive on site. On the C.30.01 Forecast Run screen, click the Notification button next to the Forecast Code field at the top of the screen. The C.30.01.05 FR Shortage MRR Notification screen opens.

In the first (Forecast) block, the name of the forecast run is displayed in the Forecast Code field, with the run number in the Run Number field, the type of the run in the Type field, and the status in the Job Status field. Select the pre-defined email template set from the LOV in the Email Template Set field. The template sets defined on A.10.53 Email Template Sets with email templates of type FSMN (FORECAST SHORTAGE MRR NOTIFICATION) are available for selection. For more information, read Email Templates, Distribution Categories, and Email Template Sets. Next, select the time of notification from the drop-down list in the Notification Time field. The available values are:

  • Send mail on post MRR. When any MRR is posted, the software checks to see if the received idents are on this forecast run and have forecast shortages. An email is sent for every Material Receiving Report. If material was received for a shortage, an email is sent to the recipients on the distribution list to notify them about the receivings for the shortages.

  • Send mail on save MRR line. For every insert of an MRR line item, the software checks to see if the received ident is on this forecast run and has a forecast shortage. If a shortage is found, an email is sent to the recipients on the distribution list to notify them about the receiving of this particular ident.

In the second (Forecast Shortage MRR Notifications) block, all BOM list nodes that are covered by this forecast run and have positions with shortage quantities are displayed. The list nodes are displayed with the entire WBS path in the BOM Path field, the node name in the List Node field, the total BOM quantity in the Total List Qty field, the total reserved quantity in the Actual Reserved Qty field, and the shortage quantity in the Shortage Qty field. These fields cannot be updated. You must select the Sel indicator if this list node should be included in the check.

To activate the email notification, you must complete the Email Template Set and Notification Time fields, and you must select the Sel check box for all BOM list nodes to be included.

The notification email is only sent when receiving the ident the first time, regardless of whether the received quantity covers the entire shortage. After the email is sent, the email template is removed from the forecast run if no further shortages exist. It is recommended to start a new forecast run after material receiving to see the actual status.

If you click the New Run button on C.30.01 to create a new run of the selected forecast job and an email template is assigned to this job, a message appears, asking if you want to delete this template from the current run. Click Continue to delete the template, or click Cancel to keep the template on the current run.
