Selection fields
- SOP
- The code that identifies the sales and operation plan.
- Description
- The description of the sales and operation plan.
- Period type
- The period type that is used in the sales and operation plan.
- From period
- Indicates from which period the sales and operation plan should be active.
- To period
- Indicates until which period the sales and operation plan should be active.
- Act
- Indicates if the sales and operation plan is active. Active sales and operation plans can be used to update other parts of the system, such as the inventory forecast in IBS Inventory Control. As long as the sales and operation plan has not been activated it can be used as a simulation. You can create as many inactive simulation versions as you wish in order to test your different planning options. Note: Several sales and operation plans can exist for the same key values, but only one can be active.
- Cntrl
- Indicates if the sales and operation plan is controlling. Controlling sales and operation plans can be used for availability check during the sales order entry, if the Avail check SOP field is set to YES in the Item file for the item. If availability check is used, the system will check that the value in the Acc diff field on the SOP values panel is positive in relation to the order quantity. If not, the sales order will not be accepted. Note: If this field is YES, the system checks this field in combination with the From/To period for all existing sales and operation plans to ensure that only one sales and operation plan is controlling at a time.
