Propagate Quantity Downstream

Explanation

This activity is used to propagate quantities downstream in a DOP structure (to parent levels). The quantities at parent levels in the DOP structure will be adjusted based on the quantity of the DOP order from which the activity is performed.

To propagate quantities downstream click Propagate Date/Quantity, then click Propagate Quantity Downstream on the DOP Order or the DOP Orders page.

Prerequisites

This activity requires that a parent DOP order exists.

System Effects

As a result of this activity:

• The quantities are updated for the DOP orders at parent levels in the DOP structure based on the order quantity, quantity per assembly, component scrap and scrap factor for the DOP order from which the activity is performed.
• The demand quantity of the DOP header is updated to the same quantity as the order quantity of the top DOP order.
• If serial numbers are reserved for a parent DOP order and the quantity decreases, the correct amount of the serial numbers is unreserved.
• If a discrete unit of measure is used, the order quantity for the parent DOP order is truncated.
• The start dates for the DOP orders at parent levels in the DOP structure are updated using backwards planning. For information on how this is done, see Set DOP Order Start Date by Backwards Planning.
• If the site has Schedule and Create Load for DOP Order Operations enabled, machine and labor load of source Scheduled DOP are re-created for the operations on the DOP orders at lower levels in the structure based on the quantity remaining to supply on the DOP orders, plus the planned supply scrap for that quantity. This applies to the DOP orders with manufactured parts that have the status Unreleased or Netted and Create Pegged set to Pegged Orders.
