Goods Receipt Forecast Reporting in Purchasing MM

Use

This analysis allows you to determine the number of anticipated deliveries (e.g. for each plant on a certain date). This data, and data on volumes and gross/net weights, enables you to schedule your Goods Receiving manpower more effectively.

Features

You can aggregate (summarize) the information at the following levels:

• General overview
• Per day
• Per hour
• Per document (e.g. purchase order)

Activities

1. To display the expected deliveries, choose Purchase order ® Analyses ® GR forecast.
2. Enter the necessary data and choose Program ® Execute.

You get an overview of expected goods receipts in accordance with the chosen aggregation level.

Inbound deliveries against shipping notifications are not taken into account because this would have a detrimental influence on system performance.
