This page manages the days supply categories for the inventory reporting across the rest of Supply Planning. You can create, edit, and delete categories.

You assign days supply categories to product-location combinations to provide reports in your inventory planning activities.

Steps

To create a new days-of-supply category:

  1. Select the Add Days Supply Category action button.
  2. In the dialog, enter a display name for the category and select Submit. This adds an entry to the Days Supply Reporting Category grid.
  3. For each category you need to create, enter values for From Days (>=) and To Days (<=) so these are sequential and do not contain gaps.
    Consider the following:
    • The first days supply category should have From Days (>=) set to one.
    • Subsequent categories should always start a day after the previous one ends.
    • The last category should have To Days (<=) value set to zero.

Once you have created your categories, sort them to maintain an ordered sequence. To do this, select the Sort Days Supply Category action button. It is essential to sort after any additions or edits. This requires Workspace Administrator permission in the model.

To delete an existing days of supply target category:

  1. Select the checkbox in the Delete? column, next to the Days Supply Reporting Categories item that you want to delete.
  2. Select the Delete Days Supply Category action to delete the policy.
