Documentation

Definition

Determines the consumption period (in workdays) for forward consumption.

In forward consumption, sales orders, dependent requirements or material reservations consume planned independent requirements that lie within the consumption period after the requirements date.

Dependencies

For the planning strategy, "make-to-stock production", this field controls the reduction of the planned independent requirements by the goods issue. In this strategy, the system first reduces the planned independent requirements that lie in the past. If you specify a period in this field, the system also reduces the planned independent requirements that lie within this period in the future.
