Use this procedure to firm a consolidated batch order. A consolidated order is a grouping of batch orders. A consolidated order can contain one or multiple packed item batch orders and one or multiple bulk item batch orders. All batch orders that are associated with the consolidated order either produce or consume the same bulk item.
Important
You must firm a planned consolidated batch order before you can produce it. You can firm an individual order or multiple orders. All associated bulk and packed planned orders are firmed at the same time. However, you may want to firm each order separately to ensure that the quantity that is produced is also fully consumed.
Click Master planning > Common > Planned orders.
Select the planned batch orders that you want to firm.
On the Action Pane, on the Planned order tab, in the Process group, click Firm and Consolidate.
If you selected only planned orders for products that are defined as packed products, you are asked to confirm that no planned orders for bulk products were selected. Click OK to continue. The Consolidated batch orders form is displayed with the selected planned orders for packed products. If you click No, the Consolidated batch orders form is not displayed.
