Allocation: Allocation Table Status
Allocation: Allocation Table Status
Use
Various information on the processing status of an allocation table is displayed at header and item level. You can see, for example, if data is still incomplete and if follow-on documents have already been generated.
Features
Activity Status
The Activity status indicates whether documents have been created for the allocation table.
At item level the activity status can differ as follows:
Item status |
This means: |
Not active |
No follow-on documents have yet been created |
Partly active |
At least one follow-on document has been created for at least one site |
Active |
At least one follow-on document has been created for all sites |
Done |
All follow-on documents have been created for all sites |
At header level the activity status can differ as follows:
Header status |
This means: |
Not active |
No follow-on document have yet been created for any item |
Partly active |
At least one item is partly active, active or done |
Active |
All items are either active or done |
Done |
All items are done |
The allocation table consists of a header part and two items. If for item 1 containing several sites only one follow-on document was created for only one site, this item is partly active. If at least one follow-on document was created for all the sites in item 2, this item is active. The header status would be partly active.
Maintenance Status
The maintenance status indicates the extent to which necessary data has been maintained for subsequent processing.
At item level the maintenance status can differ as follows:
Item status |
This means: |
New |
an allocation table has being created |
In process |
an allocation table has been changed |
Incomplete |
an item has been saved with some data missing |
Released |
all the necessary data has been maintained for all items. In this case follow-on documents can be created for all items |
At header level the maintenance status can differ as follows:
Header status |
This means: |
New |
an allocation table has being created |
In process |
an allocation table has been changed |
Incomplete |
an item has been saved with some data missing |
Released |
necessary data has been maintained for an item, follow-on documents can be created for all items |
Site Status
The site status represents the overall status of the follow-on documents. This is found on the site details screen.
The site status indicates which follow-on document is not relevant or has already been created for the item category selected.
If delivery phase schedule lines have been maintained for a site in the allocation table, follow-on documents can be created for every schedule line. Thus several follow-on documents can be created for the one site. The site status is set to "Created" if follow-on documents have not been created for all schedule lines.
Notification status
The notification status can differ, depending on the environment. The status can be:
Blocking Indicators
The allocation table can be blocked and a blocking reason entered at a number of levels:
A blocking reason must always be entered. A block can be set for:
A block applies to all levels below the level on which it is set. If, for example, an item is blocked for follow-on document generation, all sites in the item are thus blocked for stock transfers.
