Propagate Quantity Upstream
Explanation
This activity is used to propagate quantities upstream in a DOP
structure (to child levels). The quantities on lower levels in the DOP structure will change with respect to
the quantity on the DOP order on which you perform the command.
To propagate quantities upstream click Propagate Date/Quantity,
then click Propagate Quantity Upstream on the
DOP Order or the DOP Orders page.
This can also be done from the DOP Header page
after first expanding the tree structure in order to display the DOP order.
Prerequisites
This activity requires that the DOP order has components.
System Effects
As a result of this activity:
- The quantities on the lower levels
in the DOP structure are changed. The new quantity of the lower levels are
calculated primarily from the actual quantity required of the pegged supply
orders. For any un-supplied quantity, the lower level quantity is calculated
as the Un-supplied Qty x Qty Per Assembly + Component Scrap.
Also the inventory part scrap factor is considered.
- If serial numbers
are reserved for a component DOP order and the quantity decreases, the correct amount of
the serial numbers is unreserved. If there is an overflow of netted quantity for a DOP
order after the propagation, this quantity is un-reserved.
- The start date is
recalculated for the DOP orders on lower levels due to due date and lead-time,
where the lead-time is depending on lot size and routing revision and alternative.
