Click on the Reserved Nodes button to open the Reserved Nodes screen.
This screen shows the result of the forecast run. It shows all BOM nodes (usually isometric sheets) for which material will be available if all material is received within the dates specified on the outstanding POs and approved requisitions.
To reverse the selected FR/RR and to reset all quantities calculated by the FR/RR, you can use the Undo Reservations button in the first (Reservation Run Definition) block. The status of the FR/RR will be set to REJECTED.
In addition, you can select the select check box of particular BOM nodes to be reversed in the second (Included List Nodes) block, or select the check box at the column header, to select all displayed list nodes. To cancel a selection, deselect the check box. Finally, click the Undo BOM Nodes button to reverse the selected BOM nodes.
You must acknowledge the message with OK, to continue. When the node is deleted, another message appears.
The Best Qty uses only Site Status column in the Reservation Run Definition controls which issue statuses the best quantity algorithm considers. If this column is set as ‘No’, it means that any issue status is considered. If the column is set as ‘Yes’, only issue statuses marked as Use on Site in Issue Status are considered.
To display the WBS structure in tree mode, click the Tree Mode button.
To change back to the normal mode, close the window.
The second (Included List Nodes) block displays the BOM nodes associated with the selected FR/RR.
The Node Status before FR / RR field shows the status of the selected BOM node as it was before running the FR/RR. Possible values are:
-
Complete - The node was already completely forecasted / reserved
-
Partly - The node was partly forecasted / reserved
-
None - Nothing was forecasted / reserved before this FR/RR.
The Now field shows the status of the selected BOM node as it is after running the FR/RR. Possible values are:
-
Already Complete - The node was already complete before this FR/RR
-
Complete - The node is now completely forecasted / reserved
-
Partly - The node is now partly forecasted / reserved
-
None - Nothing was forecasted / reserved by this FR/RR.
The Reason if actual nothing reserved field indicates that the node could not be forecasted / reserved due to the reason shown in this field. The possible reasons are:
-
Already Complete - The node is already complete
-
Mandatory LP - Nothing was reserved due to the mandatory LP option
-
Shortage - Nothing was reserved due to the entered shortage option
-
Exclude MIR Qty's - Nothing was reserved because the list positions are on unposted MIRs by BOM
-
No Material - No material is available for all positions of the selected node.
The Issue Progress field indicates how much of the required material for this BOM node has been issued. Possible values are:
-
None - No material was issued
-
Partial - Required material was partly issued
-
Complete - Required material was completely issued
-
Overissued - More material was issued than required.
The calculation for this issue progress is based on the same best quantity logic that applies to the MTO and the forecast run.
The % Issued field gives you an overview of how much material has already been issued for this node. The calculation is based on the best quantity logic; however, it just gives the ratio of overall issued material quantities to overall required list position quantities, without considering different quantity units.
The Total List Quantity field shows the sum of all quantities for positions beneath the selected node, according to the forecast / reservation definition. The Total Reserved Quantity field shows the total quantity reserved for the selected node. The Total Issued Quantity field shows the quantity issued for the selected node. The quantity that was reserved by the current FR/RR appears in the Actual Reserved Quantity field. The quantity that was reserved manually during the current FR/RR appears in the Manual Reserved Quantity field.
Click the Weight/Cost/Manhours tab to display the calculated weights, costs, and manhours.
The % Shortage Weight value is calculated from Delta Weight * 100 / Total List Weight. This value enables the user to make a judgment on what is still outstanding and to see if the shown node could be issued to a contractor.
The % Issued Weight field gives an overview of how much material calculated by weight has already been issued for this node. The calculation is based on best quantity logic; however, it just gives the ratio of overall issued material quantities to overall required list position quantities, without taking into account that these quantities consist of different positions.
The Total List Weight value is the sum of all weights for positions beneath the selected node, according to the forecast / reservation definition. The Total Reserved Weight value is the weight that is reserved for the selected node. The Total Issued Weight value is the weight that has been issued for the selected node.
The Actual Reserved Weight value is the sum of all weights for BOM positions forecasted in the selected run. This weight is only calculated if the Weight check box has been selected in the Calculate Options portion of this run. The calculation is done as specified in the CIP function m_pck_forecast_custom.weight.
The Delta Weight value is calculated as follows: Total Reserved Weight + Actual Reserved Weight - Total List Weight.
The Weight Unit field shows the common weight unit for positions beneath the selected node. If different weight units exist, unit to unit conversion rules must be defined on the Unit Conversions section of Organize Units screen of Units menu. The most common unit for positions beneath the selected node will become the Weight Unit. If a conversion is not possible, the weight unit is 'N/A' and the values are left blank.
The Actual Reserved Cost value is the sum of all cost values for BOM positions forecasted in this run. This value is only calculated if the Cost check box has been selected in the Calculate Options portion of this run.
The Actual Reserved Manhours value is the sum of all manhour values for BOM positions forecasted in this run. This value is only calculated if the Manhours check box has been selected in the Calculate Options portion of this run.
