Which of the following acts as an input to the shipment planning transaction processing system that determines the orders to be filled, the shipping date, and the location from which each order will be shipped?
a. The open order file
b. The planned order file
c. The exchange order file

a. The open order file
Data captured using the order entry transaction processing system (TPS) is used to update a file of open orders—orders received but not yet shipped. The open order file, in turn, is used as input to the shipment planning TPS, which determines the orders to be filled, the shipping date, and the location from which each order will be shipped. The result is the planned order file, which is passed downstream to the shipment execution TPS, and so on.
