Indicates that the material required for production will be procured from the inventory. If the material to be procured is present in the warehouse, the quantity delivered from inventory can be track from the relevant material record or from the information on the Alternatives tab if available. The quantity delivered from inventory is calculated as Physical Inventory - Planned Outputs - Planned Total Outputs.
If the inventory contains materials less than the gross requirement, Alternative Material Usage option on the materials section located in the Production Order Lines tab of the Production Order is processed.

The deficit quantity is delivered using the alternative material.
If the alternative material fails to fulfill the gross requirement, Consignment Usage option on the materials section located in the Production Order Lines tab is processed. If the consignment usage is checked, the deficit quantity is delivered from the consignment material in the warehouse.
The Divisible parameter specified on the unit sets of the materials is important for the materials to be procured according to the gross requirement. If the divisible parameter is checked for the Unit Set, this information is reflected on the relevant columns of the Material Procurement window.
