Providing status information for a material
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method for providing status information for a material, the computer-implemented method comprising:
- obtaining information at least in part from an electronic database order object that has been released from a planning process for execution, the order object defining a requirement for a material;
determining, using the obtained information, status information for the material for a location; and
generating a predefined output regarding the material using the determined status information.

Abstract
A computer-implemented method for providing status information for a material includes obtaining information at least in part from an electronic database order object that has been released from a planning process for execution. The order object defines a requirement for a material. Using the obtained information, status information for the material is determined for a location. A predefined output regarding the material is generated using the determined status information. A graphical user interface for providing status information for a material includes a first input control for user identification of the material, an area presenting information about a status of the material at a location, and a second input control for a user to initiate, after presentation of the information about the status of the material, an action to modify the status.

15. A computer program product tangibly embodied in a machine-readable storage device and comprising instructions that when executed by a processor perform a method for providing status information for a material, the method comprising:
-
obtaining information from at least one electronic database order object that has been released from a planning process for execution, the order object defining a requirement for a material;
determining, using the obtained information, status information for the material for a location; and
generating a predefined output regarding the material using the determined status information.

16. A computer program product tangibly embodied in a machine-readable storage device, the computer program product including instructions that, when executed, generate on a display device a graphical user interface for providing status information for a material, the graphical user interface comprising:
-
a first input control for user identification of a material to cause information to be obtained from at least one electronic database order object that has been released from a planning process for execution, the order object defining a requirement for the material;
an area presenting information about a status of the material at a location, the information about the status determined using the obtained information; and
a second input control for a user to initiate, after presentation of the information about the status of the material, an action to modify the status. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
