Overview

The Summary Review by Item module is a key utility for assessing the Supply/Demand planning activities of an Item and provides a single view into planning policies versus current and future demand via an efficient interface.

Application

The Summary Review by Item function displays the supply and demand details for any item. Demand data includes sales order demand, work order demand, safety stock, and forecast. Supply data includes on-hand inventory, work orders, purchase orders, and projected ending balances. View the results based on a single item across all projects or a single project. Use it to review the materials plan and ensure that the plan meets expectations.

The output of an item search within the Summary Review by Item provides a time-based grid view of supplies and demands along with the Items MRP Policy, Lead Times, and Inventory on hand balance.
