Collective and ind indicator in mrp4 view

[raju_123]

Hi, we are using strategy 20 (mto). For header material collective and individual indicator is not maintained. For item it is maintained as 1 (ind). We created one sales order and run md02 for header material. In this case mrp is considering the unrestricted stock and accordingly no pru2019s were generated. We changed to 2 for item material, again it considers stock qty in mrp run so no pru2019s generated. as I understand if ind is 1 for item, it should not consider the existing stock as it is not sales order specific. Please advise why system is considering the existing stock if 1 is set for item material.

Hi,

The ind/Coll indicator is used to dispaly the requirements for a particular component in the following manner.

Individual requirements

Requirement quantities of the dependent material are stated individually for each header materials reqmnt.

Collective requirements

Requirement quantities of the dependent material are grouped together for all the materials.

Ind/Coll

All the MTO req are shown separately and MTO are grouped together

Hope this clarifdies your doubt. This indicator will not control whether the unrestricted stock is to be considered or not.
