I will be out of the office by that time but I will be back online tomorrow 8 -5 EST. will that work?
I have a finished goods part code that shows sales for the past 12 months. This part is made from a subassembly and the subassembly is made from a component. Down at the component level, the system is not automatically suggesting the safety stock, ROP. I have marked the finished good codes, the subassembly codes and the component code as an MRP item. It is giving me the Lead time average and the lead time STDEV average but nothing else. What I am I doing wrong. Please help
That makes sense. One more question, does the finished good item also need to have the MRP item checked marked in stock items for it to blow down to the subassembly and raw material?
I found where you put the lot size in the vendor inventory and then MRP will suggest that for your PO’s.
What if I want my Purchase Orders to have the lot size of the EOQ. So when MRP runs it will always propose the EOQ quantity.
Yes, I did run MRP to get the planned orders. My forecast is 50pcs and my safety stock is 25pcs. I can get it to plan for safety stock or forecast but I cannot get it to consider both. Example - i have 9pcs on hand and either I get 41pcs to forecast or 16pcs to forecast. I am expecting a planned order for 66 pcs
I see where i can enter multiple dates for forecast in the Forecast Form. I am needing to enter forecasts and safety stocks for our finished goods products. Then when I go into Release production orders, there isn’t any there for the test code that I am using. I have entered 50pcs for forecast, 50pcs for safety stock. I only have 9 pcs in WIP and I don’t have any sales orders for this part code that isn’t in completed status.
Does the forecast need to be entered monthly or can it be entered for the entire year depending on the month?
Yes. this is happening with the same part code. getting 2 lines in mrp one for purchase replenishment class and a line for sub contrat replenishment class. they are both saying the same vendor, qty, leadtime, etc?
this was the best answer
