The Planning Tab

The Planning tab contains Planning info with the part's planning settings displayed. These planning settings are used by the system during requirements planning. Here you will also find useful information regarding the part's Budget and Classification. Calculated turnover ratio and Actual turnover ratio is also displayed. These turnover ratios are loaded from the Inventory Analysis procedure.

If you have activated the setting Show annual budget/volume and EOQ with current daily pace, under Requirements Planning under the Inventory tab in the Settings procedure, there will be Closedextra fields to the right of the fields called EOK, Annual volume and Daily pace, which show these values at "current pace". The regular fields show the values based on an average "annual pace" or annual value.

Extra fields to the right for EOQ, Annual volume and Current pace.

The current pace value is used when planning in order to calculate the stock levels and EOQ, as a basis when planning purchases and manufacturing based on the short-term requirements. The annual value describes these values on an annual basis, and is used for long-term planning and as a basis for pre-calculations.

The information under this tab corresponds to the information that you find under the Planning tab in the Update Part - Inventory procedure.

By right-clicking an opening the Info menu you can link to a number of procedures where the information about the current part then will be loaded.
