JDE Safety Stock Field

Entitlement: What should we include

when doing a massupdate?

FORECAST CODES (H):

SAFE(JDE) = + + +

TARGET CODES (G):

SAFE(JDE) = + + +

Confidential – For J&J Use Only 1

Freeze Fence &
Leadtime Level

Freeze Fence and LeadTime Level should always have the same value.

Planning model Freeze Fence AND Leadtime Level

Forecast (consumed by orders)
Forecast (consumed by time)
Target / reorder point
Make to Order
TRUE LEAD TIME (multiples of 7) + X days*
Depending on planning day:
Monday X=3, Tuesday X= 2
Wednesday X=1, Thur&Friday X=0
TRUE LEAD TIME (multiples of 7) + 3 days
TRUE LEAD TIME
TRUE LEAD TIME + 14 days
(7 review period + 7 LT variability)

Examples:
For a product with true Lead Time of 25 days planned on Tuesdays, Freeze Fence and LeadTime Level will be:
• If planned by forecast (H): 30 (28 + 2)
• If planned by target (G): 25
• If planned as Make to Order (C): 39 (25 + 14)

*The use of the above complex calculation for H codes is suggested to avoid having more than one planning message within the same week.
Using the true lead time will still generate accurate messages but split in different start dates within the same week.
Planning Fence Rule &
Planning Fence days
(also known as Time Fence Rule)

Both work together to determine which orders and which forecast are “seen” by DRP when
calculating planning messages.
Planning model Planning Fence Rule Planning Fence Days

Forecast (consumed by orders) H 999

Forecast (consumed by time – rarely used) S 0
Target / reorder point G 0
Make to Order C Lead Time + 28
Example:
A product make-to-order with a Lead time of 20 days, should have PFR=C and PFD=48
Both parameters work together and must be maintained together, otherwise DRP will incorrectly calculate purchases.

Message Display Fence:

This parameter controls how many messages are shown on the DRP Message Review windows.
By default we should use always 180 days. This provides the ability to download 6 month’s worth of messages anytime
we want to do an analysys on future purchases (i.e. for a purchase plan).
Maximum Reorder Qty
Minimum Reorder Qty
Multiple Reorder Qty

These parameters will constrain the purchase quantities (in EA) DRP will suggest
on each planning message.
Please note these do NOT affect any order manually generated, or messages
that are modified after DRP generated them.

Examples:
A product that comes in boxes of 5 should have Multiple=5 to ensure planning messages are always
generated in multiples of 5 EA.
A product that ships by itself can be set-up with a minimum order quantity to ensure each purchase
suggested by DRP is cost effective.
