N. GLOSSARY SPECIFIC TO REPLENISHMENT RULES
RR_FMC: Forecasted Monthly Consumption (the one linked to RR concepts)
RR_AMC: Average Monthly Consumption (linked to RR concepts)
RR_HMC: Historical Monthly Consumption (linked to RR concepts), the actual ‘consumption’ of a specific month in the past (unlike the AMC, which is an average consumption of several months in the past)
Std Dev (xxx): Standard deviation of the value set ‘xxx’, statistical notion which gives an idea of the spread of a data set around the average of this data set. Example: Std Dev (HMC) will be the standard deviation of the HMCs around the AMC.
Coeff Var (xxx): Standard deviation of the value set ‘xxx’ divided by the average ‘xxx’ value. Example: Coeff Var (HMC) will be the standard deviation of the HMCs around the AMC, divided by the AMC. It enables variability comparison between 2 value sets relatively to one another.
OC: Order coverage. Quantity of months to cover
TLT: Total Lead time, Qty of days/weeks/months from date of order calculation (stock take) until availability in requesting stock location. TLT = Internal LT + External LT = Preparation LT + Order Creation LT + Order Validation LT + Supplier LT + Handling LT (see mock-ups)
Preparation LT: time needed before RR cycle begins to do tasks such as complete physical inventories, update FMCs and other related discussions
Order Creation LT: time from user starting to look at next OC period to when IR has been creation
Order Validation LT: time from IR creation until PO validation
Supplier LT: time from validated PO until reception at requested location.
Handling LT: time for customs clearance (e.g. from reception at port to reception at Instance Warehouse (can be zero e.g. for internal suppliers)
SS: Safety stock in months of consumption
TCRP: Time Covered by Replaced Product. When a product replaces an older product, this is the duration before the product to be replaced reaches Stock = 0.
Buffer: (additional or alternative) Safety stock as quantity
STDate: Stock take date (most of the time, this is the order calculation date)(this date is a point in time and can be considered as point 0 or starting point/date for calculations below)
RDD: Requested Delivery Date of the order being currently calculated. The default theoretical RDD in FMC-segments equals ‘STDate + TLT’
SODate = Stock Out Date. Date when the estimated projected stock will reach 0 (using RR_FMCs)
Real Stock: this including all current Qty in stock including reserved stock but not already expired stock: It includes all physical stock (including Buffer and Safety stock)
Reserved Stock: all AVAILABLE lines in PICKs and OUTs (current definition in Unifield 13)
PAS: Projected Available Stock. This gives forecast/projection at stock availability at end of TLT, which is the RDD. (reserved stock is not separated out in this calculation)
IOH = Inventory On Hand = Real Stock
MissQty = Missing Quantity (aka Qty lacking) before order arrival
