Dear

As far as MRP is concern , it is a one of the basic planning tools for any kind of business either REM or others.If the business process is REM , then you must have Demand as PIR which will be ur run schedule qty .Now this Demand can be created through SOP or Consumption Base Planning methods .You need to find out waht are all the materials you are looking for CBP or SOP based on the previous demand pattern , consmption through Sales .If you have FG/SFG , you have look into correct planning stategy like MTS-10 or 70 .

Basic setup will be same as like others ; Demand Management , MRP

Demand Managemet ; Through SOP/CBP-Forecast Base /ROP for RAW , SFG, FG.

MRP ; Either plant level , Group of Plant with SL etc needs to be checked .

MRP works based on demand. In REM too if you have demand for header qty entered in RS Header, MRP will plan for components. But if you are just using Backflushing to report actual and no planned qty is entered any where ( as PIR or RS header etc..), you may have to rely on consmption based planning ( or re-order based planning) for you components.
