On order quantity in JDE Summary Availability Enquiry

In our environment, we first raise a requisition (Purchase document type OR) and then it is converted in to Purchase Order (OP). However in reality it becomes Purchase Order only when it is approved in the system by the respective department manager. Till such, we want the system not to account for these unapproved open orders in “On order quantity” calculation in Summary Availability enquiry. Is there any setup which will allow addition of these quantities only after it reaches certain status code? Thanks in advance

Unfortunately the Summary of Availability Inquiry uses the availability definition from the Branch Plant constants where it cannot be controlled by status codes. An alternative to this is the Supply and Demand Inquiry. You can control the display based on your Supply and Demand Inclusion rules which will allow you to specify what Doc Types and Status Codes to display. You can also set the processing options to display the Available to Promise quantity. I have personally found this screen to be much more useful because it gives you a more detailed view of your inventory.

Thank you very much. This will surely help.
