You can extract unimplemented planned orders for MRP, MPS, or DRP plan name from their planned items that will be include in the schedules you will be building.
Select the MRP plan from which you want to extract unimplemented planned orders for MRP planned items that will be included in the schedules you are building.
This field is relevant only if you are building a planning schedule or shipping schedule with a subtype of release and forecast. The planned orders recommended by this MRP plan will be used when building the schedule for MRP Planned items only.
If you are building a shipping schedule with the subtype release only, this field is irrelevant because unimplemented MRP planned orders are not used.
If you are building a shipping schedule with the subtype release and forecast, the same MRP plan should be used to generate both the planning and the shipping schedule.
You can master schedule raw material with long lead times. You should begin Supplier Scheduling processing after you complete the MRP launch so that all master scheduled item requirements are included in the MRP recommendations.
Attention: The status of the selected MRP Plan is very important. You must complete all planning tasks of the selected MRP Plan before building a schedule. If several days pass after you launch the MRP plan, the forecast requirements may be inaccurate.
Attention: If you are planning for a single organization in the Supplier Scheduling Options window and you do not select an MRP plan in the Scheduler's Workbench, Supplier Scheduling defaults to the plan specified for your organization. If the plan is no longer valid, Supplier Scheduling defaults to NULL.
Select the MPS Plan from which you want to extract unimplemented planned orders for MPS Planned items that will be included in the schedules you are building.
This field is relevant only if you are building any planning or shipping schedule with a subtype of "Release and Forecast". The planned orders recommended by this MPS plan will be used when you are building a schedule for MPS planned items only.
If you are building a shipping schedule with a subtype of "Release Only", this field is irrelevant because unimplemented MPS planned orders are not used.
If you are building a shipping schedule with the subtype "Release and Forecast", you should use the same MPS Plan to generate both the planning and shipping schedules to ensure consistent reporting of requirements to the supplier.
Attention: The status of the selected MPS plan is very important. You must complete all planning tasks of the selected MPS Plan before building a schedule. If several days have passed since you launched the MPS plan, the forecast requirements may be inaccurate.
Attention: If you are planning for a single organization in the Supplier Scheduling Options window and you do not select an MPS plan in the Scheduler's Workbench, Supplier Scheduling defaults to the plan specified for your organization. If the plan is no longer valid, Supplier Scheduling defaults to NULL.
Select the DRP Plan from which you want to extract unimplemented planned orders for DRP Planned items that will be included in the schedules you are building.
This field is relevant only if you are building a planning or shipping schedule with the subtype "Release and Forecast". The planned orders recommended by this DRP Plan will be used when you are building a schedule for DRP Planned items only.
If you are building a shipping schedule with a subtype "Release Only", this field is irrelevant because unimplemented DRP planned orders are not used.
If you select a shipping schedule with the a subtype "Release and Forecast", the DRP Plan should be used to generate both the planning and shipping schedules.
Attention: You can master schedule raw material with long lead times. You must complete Supplier Scheduling processing after the DRP launch is completed so that all master scheduled item requirements are included in the DRP recommendations.
Attention: If you do not select a DRP Plan and you are planning for a single organization only, Supplier Scheduling uses the default plan specified for your organization. If the plan is no longer valid, Supplier Scheduling defaults to NULL.
