This project default helps you in managing the quantities available in the Corporate or the Free Issue Material (FIM) warehouses, while creating the inquiries.
Although the quantity on the inquiry is reduced, these quantities remain in the warehouses.
If you do not block them more or less immediately by creating an agreement for the
corporate or FIM warehouses, you run the risk that the quantities will be used by
someone else in the meantime. In that case, you must go through the inquiry cycle
for the remaining quantities or create an agreement for a real supplier.

-
List of Values: Y and N (default).
-
If set to Y, the quantity on the inquiry is reduced by the quantities in these warehouses. This means the inquiry will only contain the remaining quantity for which you need a quote. This can lead to the quotes that only contain parts of the requisition and not all the released lines if some positions are completely covered by the corporate or FIM warehouse quantities.
-
If set to N, the quantities in these warehouses have no effect on the quantity placed on an inquiry.
