We are using MRP to identify when we need to manufacture an item.   MRP is adding the Quantity Remaining to Produce from a production order to the Qty On Hand.  In the example below the Qty On Hand shows 50 but in the first line below it is adding 168 to that number making the total Qty On Hand 218.  The 168 is what is remaining on the production order to be completed. I’ve also included a screen shot of the production order showing the 168 Remaining to produce.  How can I tell MRP not to add the remainder on a production order to the qty on hand?

 

 

​@MSwanson86 - on the Detail Inquiry screen - this screen is used to show you why MRP is recommending it’s planned orders. 

In the summary area - the Qty on Hand is the Actual or REAL quantity on hand. 

In the grid - the Qty on Hand is the projected quantity on hand once the production order is completed. 

​@Debbie Baldwin   Thanks for your response.  My problem is, because it is adding in the 168 pieces now, MRP Display is showing we don’t need to make more until 3/1.  Is there a way to not have that included in the calculation showing when to manufacture?

Thanks 

​@MSwanson86 - no because based on your dates it appears that you really don’t need this until 3/1. It looks like your Production order for 168 was supposed to be completed on 12/1 - if that was the case - you would have had this on hand. 

​@MSwanson86 - do you plan on making any more from that production order? If you don’t then I would suggest completing the production order.  -- If you do plan on making more, I would suggest changing the date so the system knows when you are planning to complete the remainder.
