Reserve Requisition

Explanation

In Material Requisition, click Reserve in the Operations menu to reserve material for all selected lines. To do manual reservations or to reserve material from a specific inventory location, use the Reserve Manually option in the Operations menu.

Prerequisites

• A material requisition header and at least one requisition line must have been entered and saved.
• The lines that you want to reserve must be selected.
• The quantity of parts that will be reserved should be available in stock. The line is partially reserved if you reserve more parts than are available in stock. Note that created transport tasks can be considered as available to reserve depending on configuration on the site.

System Effects

• The parts are reserved in stock and the order line status is updated from Released to Reserved. You can see the quantity of parts reserved in the Qty Reserved field.
• If you had connected the material requisition line to a project activity and set the supply code to Project Inventory, parts will be reserved from the project inventory of the connected project. In doing so, priority will be given to the project inventory of the specific project activity to which the line is connected. If such parts are unavailable, a reservation will take place from the project inventories of the other activities belonging to the same project. The exception to this rule is if the material allocation for the project is to be done within each activity (indicated in Project/General), in which case, automatic reservations will only be made in project inventory within the same project activity to which the line is connected.
• If you had connected the material requisition line to a project activity and set the supply code to Inventory Order, parts will be reserved from standard inventory on behalf of the connected project activity.
• If the material requisition line is not connected to a project activity, reservation will always be done from standard inventory.
• If reservation from created transport task is enabled and material from a created transport task is reserved, then the system tries the best to keep the reserved material on the same transport task. This will be possible when you have complete handling units on the transport task or when the entire stock record is included on the transport task, otherwise the reserved material is removed from the transport task.
