Reload Query after Pegging Change | Automatically reloads the query whenever you make changes to the pegging using the Change icon in the Material Requirements Pegging list view. | ||||||
Non-stocked | View demand requirements for a non-stocked
item. When you select this option, the Warehouse is set to ** and cannot be changed. The code you enter in the Stock code field must be a non-stocked item. |
||||||
Stock code | Enter the stock code for which to view demand
requirements. If you selected the Non-stocked option, then you need to enter a non-stocked code. You can use the Browse icon to use the MRP Stock Codes with Demand program to view a list of all stocked and non-stocked items for which a demand was created. |

Warehouse |
Indicate the warehouse for which to display the demand requirements for an item. You cannot access this field when the Consolidate selected warehouses option is enabled (Requirements Planning Setup). |

Only display direct parent demand | When viewing all pegging levels and pegging is dependent on higher level demand, then only the direct parent source of the demand is displayed. |
This displays a graphical representation of the available quantity and the minimum and maximum quantities for the selected stock code.
If you are not using the Inventory Optimization module, then the static minimum and maximum quantities from the warehouse are used (Inventory Warehouse Maintenance for Stock Code).
This enables you to indicate various options according to which to display the information as well as displaying stock code and warehouse information.

Details defined in the Stock Codes program for the stock item are displayed in this pane.
Refer to Time Fences for details on Time Fences.
Details for the warehouse indicated are displayed in this pane.
You can view the material demands for ECC controlled components with WIP allocations against which the Deplete oldest rev/ref first setup option (Bill of Materials Setup) is enabled, in the Deplete oldest WIP field. (per event 66553
The information in this pane only applies if you are using the Inventory Optimization module.
The module is used to calculate and output minimum and maximum (min/max) stock levels for stock items by calendar period. The IO current min/max levels (in the IopStockLevel table) are copied to the snapshot MRP min/max stock level table (MrpStockLevel) and used by the Requirements Calculation to derive an optimal requirement.
Multi-grade co-products are not supported in the context of min/max levels in Inventory Optimization.
No min/max levels are displayed for Notional parts; only for their Co-products.

This indicates the Material Requirements Details and Material Requirements Pegging information for the stock code/warehouse combination selected.
The title of this pane indicates your selection at the Periods option in the Options section of the Information pane.
For MPS items, you can select to view the Build schedule or the Actual demand at the MPS View option.
Column | Description | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Period |
Indicates the period of the demand/supply. The date is relevant to your selection at the Periods option. Not loaded is displayed for any supply falling into the date range January 1st, 2040 to December 31st, 2045. This column cannot be sorted as it contains both text and date fields. To sort by date, you need to sort on the Start date column. |
||||
Available |
Indicates the stock on hand less the allocated stock plus the stock in transit due to be received plus stock in inspection, for each stock code/warehouse combination (i.e. it is the quantity available netted off with the supply and demand from the previous period). This is zero for MPS items where you enabled the Build schedule option at the Include in requirements calculation field (Requirements Planning Setup). The available quantity on lines after the first line will be the previous line's result carried forward. The calculation of the quantity available depends on the Requirements Planning Setup options selected. The calculation begins with the warehouse quantity on hand and adjusts this quantity depending on what you included in the MRP calculation. For example:
The quantity in inspection (less the quantity scrapped) is added to the quantity on hand. |
||||
Supply |
Indicates one or more of the following (depending on the Requirements Planning Setup options selected): quantity in transit, existing job, existing purchase order, estimate, suggested job, suggested purchase order requisition, existing purchase order requisition, IO min/max levels and associated batching rules if Inventory Optimization is in use.
|
||||
Demand | Indicates one or more of the following (depending on the Requirements Planning Setup options selected): safety stock, sales orders, existing job allocations, suggested job allocations, build schedules, estimate allocations, forecasts. | ||||
Result | Indicates the available quantity plus the supply less the demand. The Result for the current period is equal to the Available for the following period. | ||||
Start date |
Indicates the start date of the selected period (for example for Months, it is the first day of the month). When MRP calculates that a supply should be cancelled, the date is moved out beyond 31/12/2045 and therefore the Start date is displayed as 01/01/2046. |
||||
End date | Indicates the end date of the selected period (for example for Months, it is the last day of the month). |

Change |
Change the pegging for the line currently highlighted in the list view. When changing requisition stores transfers, both the supply and demand side of the pegging are updated. When you change a component or a sub-assembly of a job, you are prompted to indicate whether you want to update the Job Header (see Job Entry) or to Change the Available Date (see WIP Move Material Available Date). |
Zoom | View additional information on the line currently highlighted in the list view. |
This list view displays the reason for the supply or demand over the time period for the line currently highlighted in the Material Requirements Details list view.
When viewing all levels of pegging (i.e. when Pegging levels to display is set to All):
The supply date of the higher level pegging causing the demand on the current level is filtered on at the higher level. This will continue up the chain.
If a parent source key is duplicated on the current level, then only the first occurrence of the higher level source is exploded.
The Requirements Calculation ignores any purchase order (it actually physically deletes the lines from snapshot) that is part of a Call off single P/O which is not fixed and not in a status of completed or cancelled and therefore no supply is recognized against active live lines and no pegging is output.
Because no existing supply is output, all demand raised is satisfied by raising a suggested requisition. Thus the MRP Requirements Planning Query can only reflect the pegging as suggested requisitions.
Column | Description | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Where-used structure | This column can be selected as the default sequencing column. If you sequence on this column in ascending order, then all the higher level where-used structures will occur after the current level pegging. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Date | Indicates the period in which the demand or supply occurred. This column cannot be sorted. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Quantity | Indicates the quantity affected. A negative quantity indicates demand and positive quantity indicates supply. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Pegging source |
Indicates the reason for the demand or supply and can be one of the following:
|
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Source ID | Indicates the number for the item displayed in the Source column (for example the job number, sales order number, etc.) | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Level | Indicates the level at which the demand/supply occurred. This is only displayed when you select to view All Levels in Pegging from the View menu. |
Although this program changes pegging and demand records according to changes made to the source transactions, it will not re-schedule the associated supply/demand.
For example, if the Requirements Calculation program creates a job suggestion (supply) in response to insufficient stock being available for a sales order (demand) and you change the delivery date of the order, then the delivery date of the job remains unchanged.
Past due forecasts will generate past due supplies as displayed in the Material Requirements Pegging listview.
