Related topics

This panel displays the selection values that were entered for the Material requirements planning (MRP) batch job on version level. The information refers to the latest time the job was ordered.

Start date
The date when the job was last started.
Time
The time when the job was last started.
User
The user who ordered the job.
Simulation version
This field is only displayed if the MRP is a simulation. The simulation version that was used in the calculation.
Sim capacity version
This field is only displayed if the MRP is a simulation. The version that was used for the capacity creation.
Supply plan version
The supply plan version.
Variant
This field is only displayed if the Variant handling field is set to YES in the MFG control file. The structure variant that has been used for the creation of lower level requirement and planned workload.
Gross requirement
Indicates if quantity on hand was taken into consideration when creating requirements.
Variant
This field is only displayed if the Variant handling field is set to YES in the MFG control file. The structure variant that was used for calculation of lower level requirements and for creation of planned workload.
Sales order
Indicates if sales order lines were selected.
Include held sales
Indicates if held sales orders were selected to be included in the calculation.
Include sales return
Indicates if credit sales orders defined with update stock on hand should be included in the MRP calculation.
Supply plan forecast
Indicates if a supply plan forecast was selected.
Purchase order
Indicates if purchase order lines were selected.
Manufacturing order
Indicates if manufacturing orders and bill of material were selected.
Sales quotation
Indicates if sales quotation lines are included in the MRP.
Manual reservations
Indicates if manual reservations were selected.
Horizon date
The horizon date is the final date for completion of the requirements which are included in the run.
Netting period
The netting period is used when both forecast and customer orders are used as input to MRP. Depending on the Forecast period type, the netting period is divided into either months or weeks. If Inventory Control is installed and activated the forecast period type is retrieved from the Forecast period type field in the IC control file. If not, the forecast period type will be retrieved from the Sales/SOP period field in the MFG control file. Note: Only customer orders are considered as input to MRP before the netting period end date (= the last date of the period).
Incl fcst in netting
Indicates if forecast inside the netting period was included in the calculation.
Netting option
The code indicates how the forecast should be netted against the sales order.

Valid codes are:

Code Description
1 Remaining forecast for present period is calculated according to how many days that is left for the period. Based on the remaining forecast, the open sales order will be used for the forecast netting.
2 Total forecast for the present period. Open and delivered sales order for present period will be used for netting the total forecast to remaining forecast in the period.
Recalculate ll code
Indicates if low level code for items included in product structures was recalculated.
Create workload
Indicates if planned workload was created.
Re-sch ind days (late)
The number of re-schedule indication days determines what manufacturing or purchase orders can be ignored by the system when re-schedule proposals are created. The indication days are counted after (late) the requirement date of the proposal. This is used to avoid the re-scheduling of manufacturing or purchase orders for which the requirement date has been slightly changed. If the change is within the defined number of days, no re-schedule proposal will be created for the manufacturing or purchase order.
Re-sch ind days (early)
The number of re-schedule indication days determines what manufacturing or purchase orders can be ignored by the system when re-schedule proposals are created. The indication days are counted before (early) the requirement date of the proposal. This is used to avoid the re-scheduling of manufacturing or purchase orders for which the requirement date has been slightly changed. If the change is within the defined number of days, no re-schedule proposal will be created for the manufacturing or purchase order.
Proposal in passed
Indicates if calculated order proposal could be created in passed time or not. If this field is set to YES, proposals will be created according to the demands requirement date. If this field is set to NO, proposals will not be created in passed time, i.e., the lowest requirement date will be current date, and based on the requirement date the start date will be calculated.
Include safety stock
Indicates if safety stock is included in the calculation of order proposals.
Use order rule
Indicates if the order rule that is defined on the item was used during order proposal calculation. If this field is set to NO, all items were handled as discreet requirements (order rule 1).
Start date calc
The code indicates if the requirement start date is calculated using the item’s lead time or using the total needed operation time.

Valid codes are:

Code Description
1 Lead time
2 Bill of routing
Divide forecast
The code indicates how the requirement forecast has been divided.

Valid codes are:

Code Description
1 Divide forecast according to the period interval defined in the IC control file.
2 Divide forecast to week.
3 Divide forecast to day.
