Features

Create Order

...

To create an order within the DS planning board, you choose Create Order in the menu under Functions → Order →Create or in the context menu of a graphical object or table row.

If you have already selected objects, the system tries to determine a product and a location from these, and offers them as a proposal in the dialog box that appears. If neither a product nor a location can be derived, the system either does not propose any values, or it proposes the last values entered in this dialog box. You can adopt or change these default values. In addition, you enter the desired date/time, the receipt quantity and the PP strategy, which the system should use for scheduling the order.

You cannot create an order with a negative receipt quantity as you cannot create planned independent requirements on the DS planning board. You can create planned independent requirements in the product view.
