If a change is performed on the BOMs, requisitions that are already transferred to SAP are re-calculated and provided with a supplement n+1.

In Smart Materials requisitioning, there are eight different quantity types. These are described in the following table. The only quantity used for the transfer to SAP is the increased quantity.

Quantity

Description

New List Quantity

Current list quantity

Recommended Quantity

Quantity considering disposition
extras

Assembly Quantity

Quantity resulting from the dissolution of assemblies

Last List Quantity

Quantity of preceding requisition supplements

Total rel qty

Quantity released to procurement

Last Released Quantity

Quantity last released to procurement

Inquiry Quantity

Quantity, offered to procurement by subcontractors

PO Quantity

Quantity already ordered by procurement

Increased Quantity (only quantity used for the transfer to SAP)

Increased quantity since last supplement:

total rel qty – last released qty

If the last released quantity exceeds the recommended quantity, a negatively increased quantity follows. This would lead to negative change orders in purchasing. Negative amounts cannot, however, be processed in SAP purchase requisitions.

All those positions with negatively increased quantity obtain an increased
quantity = 0 when they are transferred to SAP. An alert message is transferred to an SAP text field, displaying the particular negative amount. Therefore, the positions can be newly ordered only after the increased quantity has turned into a positive amount.

Surplus material that has been ultimately ordered cannot be cancelled via the interface.
