Alerts, Actions, and Statuses for Deviating Projected Deliveries
The system uses
deviation analysis
to compare planned deliveries and
projected deliveries
(transportation PIOs). In the case of quantity and date/time deviations outside of the allowed tolerances, the system creates the alert type
Projected Data Outside of Tolerance Range
(alert type 7116) for the work order item.
In addition, the system creates differentiated statuses and required actions for the planned deliveries.
In deviation analysis for a delivery, the system differentiates between the transportation phase input and the transportation phase output. It therefore calculates alerts, actions, and statuses for the transportation phase input and transportation phase output separately. In deviation analysis, you can configure quantity and date/time tolerances for the transportation phase inputs and transportation phase outputs.
Note
Note that the quantity that a supplier ships for a delivery and the quantity that the customer receives is always identical. The transportation phase input and transportation phase output thus have the same quantity.
High Projected Quantity
The projected quantity that is available for the transportation PIO exceeds the maximum quantity (planned quantity plus overdelivery tolerance).
For a planned transportation phase input, this means that the supplier ships too much to the customer.
For a planned transportation phase output, this means that the customer receives more than he or she ordered.
In this case, the system creates the following status and the following required action:
Status:
High Projected Quantity
(HPJQ)
Required action :
Process High Projected Quantity
Moreover, if the high projected quantity is not available by the planned date/time (within the time tolerance range), but too early or too late instead, the system also creates a required action and a status for the transportation PIO with respect to the date/time violation (see below).
Low Projected Quantity
The projected quantity that is available for the transportation PIO falls below the minimum quantity (planned quantity minus underdelivery tolerance).
For a transportation phase input, this means that the supplier cannot ship the required quantity to the customer.
For a transportation phase output, this means that the customer does not receive the required quantity.
In this case, the system creates the following status and the following required action:
Status:
Low Projected Quantity
(LPJQ)
Required action :
Process Low Projected Quantity
Moreover, if the low projected quantity is not available by the planned date/time (within the time tolerance range), but too early or too late instead, the system also creates a required action and a status for the transportation PIO with respect to the date/time violation (see below).
Late Projected Completion
A projected quantity is available too late for the planned transportation PIO (later than allowed by the time tolerance).
For a transportation phase input, this means that the supplier ships the quantity too late after the planned shipping date/time to the customer.
For a transportation phase output, this means that the customer receives the quantity too late after the planned delivery date/time.
In this case, the system creates the following status and the following required action:
Status:
Late Projected Completion
(LPJC)
Required action :
Process Late Projected Completion
Moreover, if the late projected quantity falls below the minimum quantity or exceeds the maximum quantity, the system also creates a required action and a status for the planned transportation PIO with respect to the quantity violation (see above).
Early Projected Completion
A projected quantity is available too early for the planned transportation PIO (earlier than allowed by the time tolerance).
For a transportation phase input, this means that the supplier ships the projected quantity too early prior to the planned shipping date/time to the customer.
For a transportation phase output, this means that the customer receives the minimum quantity too early prior to the planned delivery date/time.
In this case, the system creates the following status and the following required action:
Status:
Early Projected Completion
(EPJC)
Required action :
Process Early Projected Completion
Moreover, if the early projected quantity falls below the minimum quantity or exceeds the maximum quantity, the system also creates a required action and a status for the planned transportation PIO with respect to the quantity violation (see above).
