First schedule Lines in Schedule Agreement not part of MRP

[Former Member]

Hi

I have a problem with a couple of schedule agrrements that does not form part of MRP runs. This occurs for all schedule lines for the current month, but only the following month's schedule lines are included in the MRP run. When we update the Schedule Agreement with new orders from the customer for the new month fro eg, new orders for November, the schedule lines for November does not form part of the MRP run ,but only December going forward.. I have noticed within the schedule agreement that the Schedule Line Category (SLCa) has two types of MRP's eg, BN (No MRP) and L1 (MRP). BN (No MRP) is for the schedule lines for the current month and L1 (MRP) is for the schedule lines from the new month and going forward. How do I change the Schedule Line Category (SLCa) BN (No MRP) to L1 containg MRP?

Heinrich,

You are only displaying the Forecast tab.  The Schedule Line Categories of the forecasts are determined by the JIT horizon.  In general, we assume that the forecasts should be irrelevant for MRP 'inside the jit horizon', and that only JIT schedules should be relevant within this window.

You can change these Schedule line categories by selecting the JIT tab and moving the JIT horizon inward (towards today).  However, don't do this unless you fully understand the entire business process that you have implemented with your Scheduling agreement business partner.  It possible to build against requirements that your customer ultimately does not really want to buy.

Hi

After maintaining the call control parameters when you distribute the whole qty according to your rule , then system proposes the delivery schedules in JIT delivery schedule, then the initial qty which is distributed in JIT delivery proposals become non relevant to MRP only JIT delivery schedule is relevenat to MRP.

Check and revert,
