Documentation

Definition

Timepoint up to which the MRP list and the stock/requirements list is to be displayed.

Note

In the following cases there can be discrepancies between the start date or end date of a defined horizon and the receipt/requirements date in the respective analysis list:

  • For stock transfer purchase requisitions, the horizon is not based on the requirements date, but on the delivery date (= requirements date + planned delivery date).
  • If a goods receipt processing time has been entered for a material, the horizon is not based on the availability date, but on the goods receipt date (= availability date - goods receipt processing time).

Note

Calculating the available quantity

When you have a selection horizon, if you restrict the display using the start date, the calculation of the available quantity also only starts with this start date. Requirements and receipts from before the start date are not taken into account. The display of the available quantity does not then correspond to the actual material availability.

The restriction using the start date is, for example, useful if you want to improve system performance or if simulative stock development from a particular point in time is of interest to you.
