Available to Promise ( ATP )

What is ATP ?

Oracle Global Order Promising (GOP) functionality basically supports in deriving the customer order promising dates considering the current on-hand stocks and future expected demand & supply.Available-to-Promise (ATP) is a business function that provides response to customer order enquiries, based on resource availability. It generates available quantities of the requested product and delivery due dates. Given the quantity that the customer is ordering, ATP gives the expected ship date based on the quantity on-handATP = On-hand + Supply – DemandOn-hand = Nettable quantity on handSupply = Planned orders, Scheduled receipts (purchase orders, purchase requisitions, discrete jobs and repetitive schedules) and suggested repetitive schedulesDemand = Sales orders, component demand from planned orders, discrete jobs, suggested repetitive schedules
