Treatment of Safety Stock in Supply Planning - Version 2022.2 (RP)
When 2022.1 was released, we noticed a change to the way safety stock began appearing in the "available" calculation. At the time of the release, "A new Safety Stock line had been added to the Workbench Date-Based Grid view."
The problem we had was - the safety stock was being subtracted from the available and projected available stock. For example:
On Hand: 500
Demand: 450
Safety Stock: 100
The grid would show available of -50 (500 - 450 - 100 = -50)
We felt like this was incorrect as we actually would have +50 available. It was simply dipping into safety stock - but safety stock is still stock available for sale.
