Analyze Supply Chain for Customer Orders

Explanation

In the inter-site order flow, there are several demand and supply orders created on different sites in the same company, or different companies. The supply chain customer order analysis enables viewing connections between different kinds of demand and supply orders. This window displays the overview of customer order lines, purchase requisition lines, purchase order lines, shop order lines, DOP order lines and incoming customer order lines. It also displays how each demand is fulfilled by supply orders. You can analyze supply chain orders of customer order lines with the following supply codes: Purchase Transit, Purchase Direct, Internal Purchase Transit, Internal Purchase Direct, Shop Order and DOP Order, or purchase order lines with demand code Customer Order. It is also possible to analyze supply chain orders from the navigator.

During the analysis, it is possible to view the relevant customer order, purchase order, purchase requisition, incoming customer order, shop order or DOP order by right-clicking from the lines and/or tree structure. Incoming purchase order confirmation and incoming change request for customer orders can be accessed by right-clicking from the respective purchase order lines and/or tree structure.

If there is an incoming change request with the status requiring Approval, Changed or Stopped; Incoming Change Request check box on the table is selected and overlay icon is displayed on the respective customer order on the navigator.

If there is an incoming purchase order confirmation with the status Received, Changed or Stopped; Incoming PO Confirmation check box on the table is selected and overlay icon is displayed on the respective purchase order on the navigator.

If sales part is a component of a package part, it is possible to view package part structure from the external customer order line displayed on the supply chain customer order analysis window navigator or table.

Prerequisites

The required customer order record should have been created and released in the Customer Order window.
A purchase order should have been created from an external customer order in order to view from the Purchase Order window.
The order flow should have started from an external customer order. E.g.: An external customer order on the demand site will create an internal purchase order on the demand site. This then creates the internal customer order on the supply site and it will be supplied via a shop order on the supply site.

System Effects

No particular system effects occur. You can use this window as an aid to oversee the inter-connected demand and supply order lines, their status, important information such as part number, different dates, quantities, etc.
