Procedure documentationPerforming Pegging

 

Pegging is used to plan and schedule bulk shipments based on supply and demand information. The term 'pegging' refers to the matching of demand items to supply for the purpose of scheduling of bulk shipments, such as marine voyages or pipeline batches. You plan and schedule bulk shipments, by assigning the pegged items to the distribution schedule. During pegging, the system uses the supply and demand items that are created to change or create quantities. Pegging is performed from the nomination item list, using a unique pegging type which binds the selected line items together with a unique, system-generated pegging ID. Different pegging types and IDs can be generated in a single nomination.

Procedure

  1. In the nomination maintenance screen, select the nomination line item.

  2. Click the Pegging icon that is provided at the header level. A drop-down list of pegging types appears. Select the appropriate pegging type. This activates the creation of deliveries from confirmation of the nomination.

  3. If the pegging is successful, a success message appears. To confirm this, you can select the Show Pegged Items icon at header level. This displays a new view with the pegged items.
