Perform Lead Time Category Classification
Explanation
This activity is used to assign lead time categories for buffered parts.
Use the Perform Lead Time Category Classification page to assign lead time categories
for buffered parts. Lead time categories assigned are based on the unprotected lead time of the part. Enter a
Site if you want to perform the calculation for all the buffered parts in the site. If no value is
entered in the Site field, all buffered parts defined in the user allowed sites will be considered
in the calculation.

category basic data.
- Unprotected lead time of the part should have a corresponding Lead Time Category defined in the lead time
