In this step, you define the parameters for the calculation profile for the automatic kanban calculation.
The calculation profile groups the parameters required for the automatic kanban calculation. The calculation profile is saved in the control cycle.
The parameters in the calculation profile are:
- Calculation Type
The calculation type controls whether the number of kanbans or the quantity per kanban is to be calculated.
- Safety Factor
The safety factor is used to cater proportionately for requirement fluctuations. It is multiplied by the result of the kanban calculation formula.
- Constant
Depending on how Kanban is used in production, you set the constant in the following way:
- If a kanban is reported empty when all the material in the kanban has been used up, the constant is set to 1.
- If several work centers are served by one production supply area when kanbans are reported empty in this way, the constant must be increased by the number of work centers.
- If, on the other hand, the kanban is reported empty as soon as the first part is withdrawn, the constant is 0.
You can also use this constant to plan a safety stock.
- Smoothing Type
If you want to smooth the dependent requirements for the kanban calculation, you must define the smoothing type and, if necessary, a distribution function.
- Factory Calendar, Grouping, Shift Program for the Supply Source
If you have entered a replenishment lead time of less than a day in the control cycle, the system has to convert the daily dependent requirement quantity to the dependent-requirement quantity in this sub-day replenishment lead time. Before the system can do this conversion, it must be able to calculate the working time per day. The working time per day is calculated using the three above parameters.
Note: In the kanban calculation, the system calculates the average working time (averaged over the period of examination).

Further notes
The parameters:
- Calculation Type
- Safety Factor
- Constant
can be overwritten in the control cycle.
The parameters:
- Smoothing Type
- Factory Calendar, Grouping, Shift Program
can only be set in the calculation profile. Therefore, if you want to smooth the dependent requirements or if you want to use a replenishment lead time of less than a day for the kanban calculation, you must maintain a calculation profile with these parameters and assign it to the control cycle.
