Availability Check consider Purchase Requisitions?

Hi ​@Alex_Mee 

        Have you tested that correct projected available qty is not considered?

The availability analysis steps are as documented:

• It starts by calculating the available quantity in stock today: On-hand balance today - reserved parts - parts past expiration date - not nettable parts = available inventory quantity today.
• Then, it calculates the projected available quantity on time T: Available Inventory Qty Today + Planned supply to Time T - Planned demand to Time T - Backorder Qty  = Projected Available Balance on Time T.
•  Finally the quantity plannable is calculated as: The LEAST of : Projected Available Quantity on Time T AND  Plannable Qty on Time T+1 = Plannable Qty on Time T.

Hi Alex,

Purchase Requisitions are not considered as an open supply for the Availability Check. Similar as Shop Order Requisitions. Probably they are not considered “firm enough” for order promising logic. They can change too much in time and qty.

One exception to above: If the PO Req Line is pegged then it becomes visible for the availability check.

However, when I think a little bit out of the box… if the Purchase Req Line is released or higher it would be nice to have an option to include it in the availability check. You should raise an idea here on the community.
