Component Availability Calculations
The system calculates component availability for a production order component record by calculating projected quantity on hand (PQOH) using MRP supply and demand detail information.
The system factors these key considerations when computing the time-phased consumption and supply of material:
• For component demand records:
• Release dates: oldest demand records processed first
• Shift and sequence
• Orders status: Authorized, Firmed, then Planned
• R and A orders have priority over F and P orders, regardless of consumption date.
• For component supply records:
• Due dates
• Order status: Authorized, Firmed then Planned
• Expiration dates
