Create New Supply

Creates a new element on the point where you right-click, which represents a new suggested supply order. It becomes a new line in the planning worksheet when you choose Save Changes on the Process tab.

Any filter values that are defined in the Location Filter or Variant Filter fields on the Options FastTab will be applied to the new supply order.

Note

If the filter fields are empty or have more than one filter value, then the new supply order is created by using the following codes: If the filter field is empty, then the new supply is created without a location or variant code. If more than one filter value is defined, then the new supply is created by using the first filter value according to the sorting order. If you want another variant or location code in the new supply order, then you must manually change it on the new planning line.

Auto-Adjust Supply

Optimizes a new supply that you have created in the graph by making sure that it creates zero inventory before the next supply.

Delete Supply

Deletes the element in the Timeline FastTab and deletes the planning line when you choose Save Changes on the Process tab. The icon changes to a disk that has a red cross when the supply has been deleted.

Note
You can only delete a supply of action message type New. After you choose Save Changes on the Process tab, you must manually delete the planning line in question in the planning or requisition worksheet.
