In this step you define rounding profiles for adjusting units of measure to match delivery or transport units.
Rounding profiles can be maintained on a general or plant-specific basis. General maintenance is recommended as this requires you to enter less data.
A distinction is made between static and dynamic rounding profiles.
A static rounding profile comprises the following:
- Threshold value
- Rounding value
The threshold value is the value from which the system rounds up to the next delivery quantity.
The rounding value is the value to which the system rounds up as soon as the threshold value has been reached.
Several combinations of threshold and rounding values can be defined for rounding profiles.
No logistics units of measure are taken into account with static rounding profiles. This means that the system rounds up statically to the rounding values entered in the profile and not to "full pallets", for example.
Dynamic rounding profiles comprise the following:
- Rounding method
- Rounding rule
- Indicator to show that units of measure are to be condisered only if they are allowed for the vendor or recipient.
The rounding method controls how the system rounds off:
- No rounding
- Rounding to a multiple of the order or sales unit
- Rounding to order or sales unit, and to logistics units
- No rounding
You have to define an additional rounding rule if you want your profile to round off to whole logistics units. This rounding rule is the key used for grouping logistics units of measure. The group contains all the units to which the system can round off when using the profile.
You can also have the system include only those logistics units that are allowed for the vendor or recipient. Allowed units of measure are defined in unit of measure groups that can be used at material-vendor level or at material-plant level.
Example
a) Static rounding profile
A material has a base unit of measure of 1 piece. Purchases are made in cases (1 case = 5 pieces) or pallets (1 pallets = 8 cases or 40 pieces).
You maintain the static rounding profile as follows:
From To Rounded to
01 05 05
06 10 10
11 15 15
16 20 20
21 25 25
26 30 30
31 31 35
32 40 40
41 45 45
46 50 50
. . .
66 70 70
71 71 75
72 80 80
81 85 85
. . .
b) Dynamic rounding profile
To procure materials in lower price bands, you define rounding rules containing all pallets and cases that the relevant vendors can deliver. You enter a percentage for every pallet and case category that indicates the level to which a quantity is to be rounded up to the next unit of measure.
Rounding rule 01
Unit of measure Round up as of
Euro pallet 70% full
Pallet category 2 80% full
Case for euro pallet 65% full
Case category 2 75% full
You maintain a dynamic rounding profile using the rounding method "round to whole logistics units" and assign the profile rounding rule 01.
A material has a base unit of measure of 1 piece. Purchases are made in cases (1 case = 5 pieces) or pallets (1 pallet = 8 cases or 40 pieces). The system then rounds an order quantity of 68 pieces (= 40 + 28) to 2 Euro Pallets (= 80 pieces) because the second pallet is already 70% full.
