Reg purchasing department processing time MRP

Is The purchasing department processing time defined for the plant is taken into consideration by MRP while calculating purchase requisition release date??? If not then what is the use of this ? [Where do we configure this in SPRO] ?

SAP help says ..

The planned delivery time from the purchasing info record and the GR processing time are only taken into account if the purchase requisition was generated via materials planning.

Hi,

under OMDT or OMI8 you can maintain the purchasing processing time. you can maintain it for a plant or MRP group. This will be definitely considered in MRP calculation while determining the Delivery date.

This is what i understood please correct me if i am wrong

Requirement Date <GR Processing Time> Delivery Date <Plan Delivery Date>PODate <Plant purchase processing time> PR Release Date

Purchase process time will have effect on PR Release date not on Delivery date

Exactly The purchasing department processing time is included in the computation

of the delivery date.

Your statement is bit confusing ..

increasing Purchase processing time doesn't change delivery date isn't it

Delivery Date will be determined by Requirement date and GR processing date, Please correct me if i am wrong

For Forward scheduling Deliver date depends on Purchase process time not in case of backward scheduling ..

Thanks ..
