Item is proposed in planning worksheet although Reordering Policy is Order

Hello,

using NAV 6 R2 W1 database.

Create an item with Reordering Policy = Order. Create Stockkeeping Units for it.

Post a quantity of 2 in location blue - posting date 01.01.12.

Create a sales order

Create a sales line for the new item with quantity = 2 and reserve the item ledger entries.

Set the Line Shipment date in the past -> 26.01.11 (workdate is 26.01.2012)

Now do the function "Calculate Net Change Plan" for the new item in Planning Worksheet. The Starting Date is the 01.01.12 and the ending date is the 31.12.12.

Our new item occurs in the planning sheet.

The help says following:

Order
The program generates an order for each individual requirement, and does not use the reorder cycle.
When you use this reordering policy, the program creates an automatic reservation between the requirement and the corresponding replenishment order proposal. This will preserve the customized information on the relevant orders and link them for inventory and costing purposes. (Note that creating a manual reservation is the standard way for a user to set aside items in inventory and designate them for use in a particular order.)
If you select this option, the program disables all planning parameter fields that otherwise would be used to calculate the order proposal quantity.

Question: why does this item appear in the planning sheet (reorder policy = order (with reservation))?
