Kathy Barthelt / Tuesday, March 21, 2017 / Categories: Infor LN & Baan Tips Baan/LN Tip of the Week: Clusters in LN A cluster is a group of one or more warehouses in a particular geographical area. You can plan an item by cluster (geographical area). To enable this, you can set up multiple plan items for one item. You always define one plan item without a cluster indication and multiple plan items with a cluster indication. A plan item with a cluster is called a clustered plan item, and a plan item without cluster is called the non-clustered plan item. The plan items in the clusters can be supplied not only by distribution, but also through purchase and production. In this way, you can, for example, plan local purchasing in a cluster (geographical area). You can also plan supply from multiple sources. Optimize Your Manufacturing Today!
