# Design

The Stock Quantity Early Planning introduces the following concepts:

## Stock Quantity Early Plan

Quantity Early Plannings are generated by the wizard <wizard-stock.quantity.early_plan.generate> of the same name. They represent possible planning optimisation regarding the quantity of stock available for future Shipments <stock:concept-stock.shipment>, Productions <production:model-production> or Outgoing Moves <stock:model-stock.move>.

Possible early dates are calculated for the planning. Ignoring the proposal makes that the system will no more create proposal for the origin.

The Employee <company:model-company.employee> who processes, closes or ignores the planning is recorded.
