Propagate Quantity Upstream
Explanation
This activity is used to propagate quantities upstream in a DOP structure (to child levels). The quantities at
child 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 upstream click Propagate Date/Quantity, then click Propagate
Quantity Upstream on the DOP Order or the DOP Orders
page.
Prerequisites
This activity requires that the DOP order has components.
System Effects
As a result of this activity:
- The quantities are updated for the DOP orders at child levels in the DOP structure based on the quantity of
the DOP order from which the activity is performed. The new quantity of the child levels is calculated primarily
from the actual quantity required of the pegged supply orders. For any un-supplied quantity, the child 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 dates for the DOP orders at child 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 child 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.
