change in MRP planning control parameters.

Hi gurus,

i have an issue regarding the control parameters for MRP.

Presently while planning run i am getting some purchase requisitions and some planned orders for externally procured items with create purchase requisition =2( pur req in opening period) with opening period =0.

Hence, we want all the materials( externally procured) to be getting the purchase requisitions without any planned orders at all as the MRP controller can reduce the time converting the planned orders into purcase requisitions.

Can we go for the change in control parameter for create purchase req =1(purchase requisitions).

Please let me know if it has any side effects ????

Thank you in advance.

Dear,

Yes you can do it. You can change the prameter in OPPQ and OPPR also. Same thing you can define in the MD01 or MD02. There is no side effect just you need to run MRP with planing mode -3 deleted and recreated so it will cahnge existing Planned order to PR also.

Dear Naveen,

There is no impact in doing so or changing the MRP control parameters.

Se the value 1 for pur.req and use planning mode 3 while running MRP.

Even make these parameters as default ,like enter the values and click on settings--->save.

I am not understanding the need for changing the control parameters as 1 or 2..

If you want only purchsae requisitions, then you need to change the procurement type to be F only(not X)...

In my understanding, only procurement type decides whether to create PRs or pland ords(which can b conv.into PRs again)..
