Help text and messages
The following wording is embedded in this screen. It describes interface guidance, rather than independently verified system guarantees.
- Load on each work centre per week, against the hours it has: orders already raised, firmed and planned orders. Nothing is moved to fit; an overloaded week is for you to resolve (overtime, another work centre, or a later date).
- A firm order is kept exactly as it is by every later run: not resized, moved or dropped.
- One line each: item code, month (YYYY-MM), quantity, separated by tabs or commas. A quantity of 0 removes that month.
- Expected demand before orders arrive. Orders due in the same month use it up first, so it is never counted twice.
- The nightly run and a run with no store chosen net these stores. A business with outlets chooses its production stores, so stock on outlet shelves is not counted. None chosen: every store.
- Make becomes a production order (planned, still to be released). Buy becomes a purchase document per supplier and date at your usual first stage.
- Leave blank to use the item master or the supplier.
Verification still required
Business purpose for each control, dynamically generated fields, backend limits, saved defaults, permission combinations, audit effects, and complete workflow outcomes require manual review against the published application.
See the operating manual, coverage register, and troubleshooting guide.
