Order Insight

Order Insight gives you material shortage visibility across every open order: which parts are short, by how much, and what's already allocated or on order to cover the gap.

Reading the shortage table

Each row is a part, with Part Num., Class ID, and Avg Material Cost identifying it. Reqd Qty. is what's required; Issued Qty. and Demand Qty. show what's already been issued and demanded against it.

On Hand Qty., Soft Alloc OH, and Unallocated show your current inventory position, and Shortage is the resulting gap you still need to cover.

Further columns break down cost and allocation: Allocated / Unallocated Ext Cost, Soft Alloc PO / JOB, Total Soft Alloc, Total Cost, Issued / Reqd Qty Avg Cost, and Order Qty / PO Unit Cost.
