Definition

In the calculation profile, you can store the data for the automatic calculation of the kanban circulation:

  • Calculation type

    The calculation type controls whether the number of kanbans or the quantity per kanban is calculated.

  • Safety factor

    The safety factor is used to offset requirement fluctuations proportionately. It is multiplied by the result of the formula for the kanban calculation.

  • Constant

    Depending on how Kanban is used in production, you set the constant as follows:

    • If a kanban is set to empty when the material in a kanban is completely used up, the constant is set to 1.
    • In this case, if several work centers use material from a production supply area, you must increase the constant by the number of work centers.
    • If, however, the kanban is set to empty as soon as the first part is taken out, the constant is 0.

      You can also use the constants to plan a safety stock.

  • Smoothing type

    You use the smoothing type to specify whether dependent requirements in the period of examination are:

    • Not smoothed
    • Smoothed within the period of a week
    • Smoothed according to a predefined distribution function
  • Factory calendar, Grouping, Shift program

    These parameters are necessary if you have maintained a sub-day replenishment lead time in the control cycle. From the shift sequence, the system calculates the average daily worktime for the conversion of the exact-to-the-day dependent requirement quantity to the quantity per replenishment lead time.
