MRP issues

[Former Member]

Dear Experts,

We have a requirement to implement MRP in our client and we've agreed to generate Planned order as the output of MRP run.

After then, the user will select the planned orders and convert them to PR.

My questions are:

1. Is it possible to generate 1 PR from many planned orders?

2. If there's a contract exist for that material, is it possible to convert directly from planned order into Release Order?

please advise,

Thanks much,

Hi,

1. Not possible.

2. You'll have to first convert into PR and then to RO.

MRP will support the generation of 1 PR for each material/date combination. You may later on combine many of them into one purchase order (per vendor for example).

If a contract exists, then you can use it to process (also automatically) the vendor assignment.

Alternatively, if you want a leaner process, you can use scheduling agreement with delivery schedules created directly by MRP.
