Documentation
Procedure
Enter the tolerance percent by which the cumulative released quantity in the new forecast delivery schedule is allowed to deviate from the old forecast delivery schedule (or the new JIT delivery schedule from the current forecast delivery schedule).
Use
Schedule lines in the new forecast/JIT delivery schedule are checked against schedule lines in the old/current forecast delivery schedule on the basis of the values you enter here and in the tolerance quantity and tolerance day fields. The system carries out the check only if you have maintained this field. If you have left the field blank or have entered a 0, the system will not carry out the check.
A schedule line is valid when:
- the cumulative released quantity of the new delivery schedule does not exceed (in the case of increasing quantities) or fall below (in the case of decreasing quantities) the cumulative released quantity of the one to which it is being compared by more than the tolerance quantity/percent
OR - the cumulative released quantity of the new delivery schedule is less than or equal to (in the case of increasing quantities) the cumulative released quantity of the one to which it is being compared on the schedule line date plus tolerance days
OR - the cumulative released quantity of the new delivery schedule is greater than or equal to (in the case of decreasing quantities) the cumulative released quantity of the one to which it is being compared on the schedule line date minus tolerance days
When one of the three checks is run successfully, the check as a whole is considered successful. The system does not carry out any further checks.
The system carries out its checks only for the period in which schedule lines exist for the delivery schedules (start and end dates).
Over time, the cumulative released quantity increases and consequently the allowed deviation. To avoid this problem and be able to compare cumulative quantities at any time, the system determines the smallest cumulative released quantity in both delivery schedules and reduces all other cumulative released quantities by this amount.
Example
The following is an example of a new forecast delivery schedule that contains both valid and invalid schedule lines based on the tolerance percent.
Tolerance percent = 10%
Sched. lines Old cml.qty New cml.qty Allowed deviation
08/01 1000
08/02 2000 2300 200 (INVALID)
08/03 3000 3300 300 (VALID)
08/04 4000 4300 400 (VALID)
08/05 5300
Time frame of comparison: 08/02 to 08/04
Note
A new JIT delivery schedule is checked against the current forecast delivery schedule and not against the old JIT delivery schedule. This is because JIT delivery schedules should follow the forecast delivery schedule as closely as possible.
Remember that the system will accept a change in quantity if it lies within the allowed limit. To be safe, you should therefore have reserve stocks on hand which cover the tolerance percent.
