    Study Notes

    Overview of MustGoDays and LookAheadDays

    • OH POST DATE refers to the date when the order is officially recorded.
    • ORDERLEADTIME includes the deadline order, which impacts the scheduling and fulfillment of orders.
    • ORDERGENERATION signifies the forecasted order period derived from the deadline order, aiding inventory management.

    MustGoDays

    • MustGoDays encompasses the timeframe necessary to convert all demand into truck shipments.
    • Calculated as the sum of ORDERLEADTIME (transit days + purchase order lead time) and ORDERGENERATION (minimum one day by default).
    • Essential for planning to ensure that all compulsory orders are included in the load.

    LookAheadDays

    • LookAheadDays is the period for utilizing available needs to optimize and complete truck loads.
    • Allows for greater flexibility in load organization by anticipating demand and adjusting accordingly.
    • Helps in identifying orders that can be supplemented with existing capacity.

    Needs Planning

    • Needs Planned Before MustGoDate are manually logged by users in ERP systems (LRS2000 or GEAC) and integrated into JDA for order fulfillment.
    • Needs Planned Between MustGoDate and LookAheadDate are also manually entered in JDA, providing a forecast period during which Distribution Center (DC) suppliers can expect orders based on the order date.

    Conclusion

    • Understanding MustGoDays and LookAheadDays is critical for efficient logistics and supply chain management, enabling timely fulfillment of orders and optimization of resources.
