My Client has 3 buyers that do the purchasing of components.
All purchased items are set with a Property in the Item Master record to denote which buyer handles that item (Properties 21, 22, or 23).
Each buyer runs MRP to plan their subset of items. In step 2, the buyer filters the item selection by choosing the Property relating to them (see attachment).
The expected result is that the MRP output will only display their own items.
The actual output does contain their items, and it might or might not be a complete set (we don't know).
However, it also includes items that are flagged for other buyers.
This is not a serious problem, but it does lead to confusion and extra work.
If the subsets are not correct, then items could be either double-purchased or missed entirely
