Note: Ensure that “From Date” and “To Date” are entered if “Period Type” is set as “General”.

Note: XYZ Analysis is based on the current system date. Hence, for XYZ Analysis, the financial year, financial period and the date range will not be considered.

Note: Ensure that at least one analysis type is selected before simulation. You cannot select more than two analysis types at a time.

The system records all the part classification details specified and displays the newly created part classification details along with the current part classification details from the “Part Administration” business component in the “Analysis Results” multiline.

The system performs the following on clicking the Simulate Analysis pushbutton

The system classifies the part in the inventory based on the following conditions

ABC Classification

For ABC Classification, the system calculates the following:

Consumption Quantity

Consumption Value

Total Issued Quantity “-“ Total Returned Quantity

Consumption quantity “*” Valuation method selected for each part

Note: The valuation method for a part of expense type “Revenue” could be Acquisition Cost or Issue Cost or Standard Cost based on the option set in the “Valuation Method For the Revenue Type Components” field in the “Set Stock Analysis Parameter ” activity.

Note: The valuation method for a part of expense type other than “Revenue” would be based on the valuation method set in the “Stock Maintenance” business component.

The part in the inventory is classified as ”A”, “B” or “C”, based on the limiting percentage of the consumption value of the part as set in the “Settings For ABC Analysis” field in the “Set Stock Analysis Parameter” activity.

FSN Classification

For FSN Classification, the system calculates the following:

Cumulative Inventory Holding Days or Cumulative Closing Balance

Average Stay

Consumption Quantity

Consumption Rate

Total Receipt Quantity “+“ Total Returned Quantity “+/-“ Stock Adjustment Quantity “-“ Total Issued Quantity

Cumulative Inventory Holding Days “/” (Total Receipt Quantity “+” Opening Balance Quantity)

Total Issued Quantity “-“ Total Returned Quantity

Consumption Quantity “/” Number of days of the selected period

The part in the inventory is classified based on the limiting percentage of the consumption rate and average stay of the part as set in the “Settings For FSN Analysis” field in the “Set Stock Analysis Parameter” activity.

Note: For a part, if the consumption rate is not available, then the part will be classified as “Fast” or “Slow” or “Non moving” based on the average stay of the part in the inventory.

XYZ Classification

For XYZ Classification, the system calculates the following:

Current Stock Value = Current Stock Quantity of the part “*” Unit Rate of the part

Note: The valuation method for a part of expense type “Revenue” could be Acquisition Cost or Issue Cost or Standard Cost based on the option set in the “Valuation Method For the Revenue Type Components” field in the “Set Stock Analysis Parameter” activity.

Note: The system considers the valuation method for a part of expense type other “Revenue” as defined in the “Stock Maintenance” business component.

The part in the inventory is classified based on the limiting percentage of the current stock value of the part as set in the “Settings For XYZ Analysis” field in the “Set Stock Analysis Parameter” activity.

The system displays the following fields in the “Analysis Results” multiline:

Part #

The code identifying the part for which the part classification analysis was carried out.

Part Description

The textual description of the part.

Location

The location for which the part classification analysis is carried out.

The type of the part which could be “Raw Material”, “Tool”, “Kit”, “Expendable”, “Component”, “Consumable” or “Miscellaneous”.

Part Category

The category of the part.

Any further information pertaining to the part classification analysis (Alphanumeric, 255).

Zoom facility available.

The system updates the part analysis classification details in the “Part Administration” business component.

Note: Ensure that the simulation analysis is performed before updating the stock analysis.

Note: If the “Part Type” is been selected, then the system updates the analysis details for the part classification in the “Part Administration” business component, only if the option of "Part Filters to Update Part Classification" is set as “Allowed” in the “Set Parameters for stock Analysis” activity.
