Inventory Planning Requirements by Item

Form ID: (AM401200)

Note: This form is available only if the Material Requirements Planning or Distribution Requirements Planning feature is enabled on the Enable/Disable Features (CS100000) form.

On this form, you can view item quantities that the system calculates based on the results of inventory requirements planning for a specific item in a specific warehouse. The quantities are grouped by buckets, which are periods defined on the Inventory Planning Buckets (AM201200) form. The system aggregates the quantities from the last inventory planning regeneration by period starting with the current business date. Past-due supply and demand documents are considered for buckets with a negative value (which correspond to past-due periods) specified in the Value column of the Inventory Planning Buckets form.
