Available to promise

The term available to promise is a modification of a simple availability calculation. It adds time phasing to the calculation and takes into account future scheduled receipts. Available to promise may be calculated for each day or broken down into larger time buckets. The first time period adds scheduled receipts to on-hand inventory and deducts any allocations scheduled prior to the next scheduled receipt. Subsequent periods without any scheduled receipts will have the same available to promise as the previous period. and will generally start with a fresh calculation, ignoring any remaining available to promise from previous periods.[1]
