Defining monitoring rules

ATP Monitoring Rules enable you to define a monitoring system for tracking the inventory availability of an item and raising specific actions or events when the inventory falls below a specified minimum level.

Onhand Inventory Monitor Rules define a monitoring system for tracking inventory changes for a given item and node combination. Each time the inventory availability of an item for a specific node falls below or above a specified level, an action is raised.

You can define three different monitoring rules in this screen:

  • Event Based ATP Monitor Rules, which corresponds to the Real-time Availability Monitor.
  • Action Based ATP Monitor Rules, which corresponds to the Availability Monitor. The Availability Monitor (ATP_MONITOR) is deprecated in Release 9.5 and replaced by the Real-time Availability Monitor (RTAM).
  • Onhand Inventory Monitor Rules, which corresponds to the Inventory Monitor and is action based.
