My dream of living in a united country, free from war is not anymore a dream. Today it became a reality. Throughout last night I was looking at my mobile screen to see any news update about the situation in the country, I was virtually sleepless like most of the Sri Lankans I know of. Early in the morning today entire country was filled with the sounds of fire crackers for the historic moment of HE Mahinda Rajapakse, beloved president of Peoples Democratic Socialist Republic of Sri Lanka arriving to country from G11 summit. As he promised, he stepped in to a country which is free from terrorism and united after 500 years.
From the day I was born, I was hearing horror stories about the war and lived in fear. When I was small I remember how nervous I was when we knew there was a bomb blast in Colombo. We used to pray till my father came home from work. I know many people died in the trains and buses and on roads due to the bomb blasts. Among those died there were Sinhalese, Muslims and Tamils. Of course the bomb did not know to target only people it wanted. I know many people died for the motherland in SL Army. Although I know most of them by their name and most of them I know personally very well, Raja Ayya is one of the closest to my heart. He is the one used to take me to the school when I was small and he loved me very much. Later he joined army. He visited my place and he liked food cooked by my mother a lot. He made the ultimate sacrifice for the motherland after helping some of the wounded in the battle field. I wish today the nation paid him the due respect. I feel very sad for all the Tamil youth died too, although they were fighting an unnecessary war. Probably they might not had any choice.
As most of my close friends would know, I wanted to see the change in this country and wanted to be an eye witness for that change. This with some other reasons I refused most of the offers came to me from all over the world. I am proud today to achieve what I wanted to achieve.
I must Thank the HE the president, Secretary of Defense and Commanders of Army, Head of Police and each and every soldier fighting, fought and made the ultimate sacrifice.
Lets work together and make the country proud. Sinhalese, Muslims, Tamils all are children of mother Sri Lanka. We are one nation.

Some config help files give the details of these acronyms, while other more common ones lack the detail, this posts is intended to clear out this grey area!!!

A few of the Acronyms that you would come across in the configs of a typical SAP AFS IS Environment


PTO – Pick To Order is a fixed configuration of a product which you need to order. No changes can be done in the configuration. This assumes that there are enough stocks available to be simply picked and assigned to order and the relevant shipment fulfilled.

ATO – Assemble to Order products have options from which the user can configure the final product. This is where options are available for the user to choose from to assemble the relevant parts to fulfill the order. When it comes to defining it as a manufacturing concept, we would define this as a Pull Based Manufacturing technique, where the assembly is done only after an order

SKU – Stock keeping unit is identification, usually alphanumeric, of a particular product that allows it to be tracked for inventory purposes. Typically, an SKU is associated with any purchasable item in a store or catalog. An SKU is not the same as a product model number from a manufacturer, although the model number could form all or part of the SKU. The SKU is established by the merchant.

ATP – The Global Available-to Promise (ATP) is used to provide a global reconciliation of supply and demand. The “Global ATP” SAP component uses a rules-based strategy to make sure that customers receive the service they have been promised.

RLT – Replenishment Lead Time is the time taken from the identification of the need for stocks to be replenished and the actual replenishment received.

OCM – Order Change Management identifies existing procurement elements (production orders, planned orders, or purchase orders) that are affected by either an engineering change or a change to a sales order for a configurable product.

More to follow soon…

Hope you found this post informative.
