IC143


IC143 - Finished Good Replenishment

**Form Purpose
Run Finished Good Replenishment (IC143) to print a report of finished goods
that must be replenished or to create forecast demand for such finished goods.


Before you run this program, you must use WO20.1 (Production Schedule) to
schedule existing forecast demand generated by a previous run of this program.
Otherwise, if you run this program using the Add option in the Impact on
Forecast Demand field, this program will add the demand calculated by this
program to the previously calculated demand and the forecast demand will be
overstated.

**Processing Effect
If you run this program in report mode, the report applies to finished goods
set up as items in IC12.1 (Item Location) with the following.

- Inventory locations set up as production facilities in the IC02.1
(Location) Work Order tab. (Define production facilities by setting the Work
Order Number Method field to A, for "Auto assign WO numbers," or M, for
"Manually assign WO numbers.")

- The following set up in the IC12.1 (Item Location) Reorder tab: reorder
point with a value greater than the existing available quantity and a reorder
document type of W for work order.

Available quantities are based on the current stock-on-hand quantities minus
allocated, picked, and backordered quantities plus on-order and intransit
quantities.

The Finished Goods Replenishment Report identifies finished goods that have
dropped below their reorder point and need to be replenished. This report
prints by company and location.

If you run this program in update mode, this program calculates replenishment
quantities for finished goods that have an available quantity less than the
reorder point.

In update mode, to determine the date needed for the replenishment, the
program uses the value entered in the Projected Production Date field and adds
the leadtime days defined in the IC12.1 (Item Location) Source tab. (Leadtime
days are defined in work days.)

You can create released or unreleased demand based on entries in the Release
field. Forecast demand is created by this program based on the reorder
document code of W for Work Order in the inventory item location record.
Unreleased forecast demand can be reviewed and released in the Work Order
application.

    CKPOINT    - This file is used in the event of a program or system failure
                 to enable a batch update program to continue from where it left
                 off.

    ICLOCATION - Used to validate location name.

    WODMNDFCST - Used to allow for a source of non-document demand to be used
                 as input into the production scheduling process for work
                 orders.
