| range of coverage |
Number of days you plan for a material to be available to prepare for fluctuations in requirements.
The work scheduler defines the range of coverage as a number of days for which a material has to be available and the system creates corresponding order proposals, if necessary.
The system also calculates the range of coverage in MRP Evaluations, in order to enable the work scheduler to see how many days' requirements are covered by the material available. This applies to both the days' supply and receipt days' supply and the statistical range of coverage.
