    摘要: A method for managing customer order alterations in a manufacturing environment is provided. A new order that comprises a new product configuration is received. The new product configuration is a modified version of an original product configuration in an existing order. A first score for a first option for building the new product configuration from scratch is determined. A second score for a second option for modifying the existing product configuration to satisfy the new product configuration is determined. A best option is determined by comparing the first and second scores and selecting an option with a lower score. The best option is presented to a user. In another exemplary embodiment additional scores for additional options for building the new product configuration from other products in existing inventory are determined. The best option is then determined by comparing all scores and selecting an option with a lower score.

    摘要: A logical inventory mechanism takes components in assemblies into account when determining purchase requirements. The inventory control system determines assemblies that are available, determines their components and whether or not each component may be reused, then adjusts physical inventory to generate therefrom logical inventory based on physical inventory plus parts in the assemblies that may be reused if the assemblies are disassembled. By computing logical inventory that would be available by disassembling assemblies, inventory levels may be reduced, thereby enhancing the efficiency of an inventory control system that includes the logical inventory mechanism. Assemblies in inventory thus may be used in two very different matters, as the starting point for a higher-level assembly, or to be disassembled to use one or more reusable components in the assembly in a different assembly.

    摘要: A computer implemented method, apparatus, and computer program product for managing an ancestry tree. An order to build a product is received. The ancestry tree is created. The ancestry tree comprises a set of nodes, where each node represents a part of the product. A request to determine a higher level sub-assembly containing a specific part is received. The node of the specific part is located in the ancestry tree. An ancestor pointer in the node of the specific part is returned. The ancestor pointer indicates a higher level sub-assembly containing the part.

    摘要: A method is provided for meeting anticipated parts demands, by controlling substitute part inventory coverage based on percentage requirements. The method is characterized by substitution sets determined as a ratio of the current PN level. In one embodiment, current parts of specified type and substitute parts functionally equivalent to the current parts are respectively kept in inventory. This embodiment includes specifying a maximum percentage of demand for the current parts that is allowed to be filled using substitute parts. The number of additional parts needed to cover a demand is determined, when the demand specifies a total number of current parts exceeding the number thereof in inventory. A number of substitute parts is then assigned from inventory to cover the demand, up to a number that does not exceed the specified maximum percentage of the specified total number. When the number of additional parts needed is greater than the number of assigned substitute parts, a number of current parts equal to the difference therebetween is then purchased.

    摘要: An illustrative embodiment of a computer-implemented method for maintaining a product offering suite, identifies a subset of proposals from a proposal database maintained on a data processing system, using selected criteria stored on the data processing system, analyzes the subset of proposals using conformance criteria also stored on the data processing system to form an analyzed subset of proposals, and identifies a set of alert instances from the analyzed subset of proposals. The computer-implemented method further updates the product offering suite on the data processing system using information using the set of alert instances.
