Context of an Order 

Use

In the context of an order you can display the pegging structure contained in the order that you are currently processing in the order processing view. You can also manually create or delete single-level or multi-level fixed pegging relationships for an order.

Prerequisites

You can only create a fixed pegging relationship between a receipt and a requirements element if a dynamic pegging relationship between the two already exists. A dynamic pegging relationship is indicated with the value D in the Pegging Type column.

Features

The context of an order is made up of the following tab pages:

·        Pegging structure

·        Planning board 1

The Planning board 1 tab page displays the detailed scheduling planning board (network representation of orders) in which you can see the position in time of the orders of the products involved and the pegging relationships between them.

Dynamic pegging relationships are displayed in green, and fixed pegging relationships are displayed in red. The orders of the pegging structure are highlighted.

·        Planning board 2

On this tab page, the following detailed scheduling planning board charts are displayed with the orders of the pegging structure:

¡        Resource chart

¡        Product chart

¡        Product stock

You can set the profiles for the Planning board 1 and Planning board 2 tab pages in the User Settings on the Profiles tab page.
