You can calculate par item lead times to help keep track of your quantity needs. Workday doesn't include manually sourced goods when calculating the lead time.
  1. Access the
    Calculate Par Lead Time
     task.
  2. As you complete the task, consider:
    Option Description
    Supplier Start Event
    When you source goods from requisitions, select one of these transactions:
    • PO Issued
    • Requisition Created
    Purchase Orders that you issue and receive on the same day have a lead time of zero.
    Supplier End Event
    Select one of these transactions:
    • Receipt Approved
    • Receipt Created
    Inventory Start Event
    When you source goods from Inventory, select one of these transactions:
    • Stock Request Approved
    • Stock Request Created
    Inventory End Event
    Select one of these transactions:
    • Shipment Closed
    • Shipment Created
    Previous Horizon Days
    Enter the number of days before today that you want to track your par item usage. Workday uses your item usage data to calculate the lead time for the item.
    Preferred Suppliers
    Enables you to filter you lead time data to only your preferred suppliers.
    Source Inventory Site
    When you don't select an inventory site for your item, Workday uses the default source inventory site for the par location on replenishment requests.
Workday calculates the par item lead times by recording the median number of days that it takes your organization to fulfill and order to a par location, over the course of a defined period of time.
Replenish your par inventory.
