How Do Terms Affect Loading Simulation?

When you register a simulated manufacturing order in MONITOR, it will take the terms that you configure during the Preparation into account. In the Search Form in the Loading Simulation procedure, you can see the standard terms: Quantity, Period (Finish) and Customer code.

If you use alternate preparations, you will find the checkbox Show terms in the Search Form. If you check this box, the Revision and Alternate preparation code terms will also be shown.

If you have set terms for a part in the Preparation procedure using any one of these alternatives and later create a simulation for that part, those terms will be applied. This naturally depends on whether the simulated order fulfills the requirements of the term.

The simulated order will thereby be created according to the terms that have been entered in the Search Form. The terms that have been entered throughout the entire structure will be applied to the Quantity and Finish fields. In other words, there will be no breakdown of the Quantity or Period fields for the underlying levels in the structure.
