MRP is required to procure or produce the required quantities on time for in-
house purpose or for fulfilling customer demand.
The main objective is to plan the supply based on requirements and considering
the current stock in hand and meets the shortages.
A separate run occurs for the MPS items; they are not included in the MRP
run.
Planning time fence (number of days starting from current date) is useful in
case of MPS scenario where one can save the procurement proposals
(planned orders) from undergoing any change since the last MRP run.
MRP type " P0" to "P3" in material master should be maintained to run
MPS for materials.
1. Processing Key
1. Net change (NETCH): In this run, the system considers those materials in
the planning run from their last MRP run which have undergone some
changes pertaining to receipts and issues or any stock changes.
2. Net Change in Planning Horizon (NETPL): In this run, the system
considers those materials in the planning run from their last MRP run
which have undergone some changes pertaining to receipts and issues or
any stock changes. It considers the requirements in a pre-defined planning
horizon, unlike NETCH key which considers the total futuristic
requirements.
3. Regenerative Planning (NEUPL): It plans all the materials for the MRP Run
irrespective of the changes they undergo. This plan is not so widely used.
It takes a long time to obtain the final result.

3. Scheduling
1. Basic Scheduling: MRP calculates only basic dates for the orders and in
house production time for the material master is used.
2. Lead Time Scheduling: The production dates are determined by the lead
time scheduling for planned orders. The routings are read to schedule and
calculate the capacity requirements on work centers.
1. Enter your manufacturing Plant for which you want to take MRP run.
3. Input "1" in Create Purchase req. Which means for externally procured
materials, MRP will generate purchase requisitions instead of planned
orders.
4. Enter "3" for schedule lines which means MRP will generate schedule lines
for raw materials having scheduling agreement.
5. Enter "1" in MRP List and system will create MRP list similar to stock
/requirement list for later analysis of previous MRP run.
6. Enter Planning mode "3" as we will delete and recreate all planning data
for all materials.
7. Enter Scheduling indicator "2" which means MRP will do lead time
scheduling and consider routing times to calculate planned order dates.
After filling in all the fields, click to go to the next screen.
The system asks you nicely to re-check your input parameter because the MRP
run is going to reschedule and overwrite all existing data. Are you sure??? If so,
press enter.
Are you 100% sure that you really want to continue??? If so, then again press
enter.
Step 2) System will take some time to calculate the material requirement.
1. After the calculation is done, a report will appear. Here, you can see how
many materials were planned.
Note : As there are 22 materials available in the plant, so only these 22 materials
were planned.
1. Input the material for which you want to run MPS. Here we have taken ID
"13967476".
2. Enter your manufacturing Plant "INA2" for which you want to take MPS
run.
4. Input "1" in Create Purchase req. Which means for externally procured
materials, MPS will generate purchase requisitions instead of planned
orders.
5. Enter "3" for schedule lines which means MPS will generate schedule lines
for raw materials having scheduling agreement.
6. Enter "1" in MRP List and system will create MRP list similar to stock
/requirement list for later analysis of previous MPS run.
7. Enter Planning mode "3" as we will delete and recreate all planning data
for all materials.
8. Enter Scheduling indicator "2" which means MRP will do lead time
scheduling and consider routing times to calculate planned order dates.
Click to next screen after filling all the fields, the system will show message
, click again, if everything is O.K.
Step 2) In this step, we are going to generate the interactive planning data by
which simultaneously you can see the planning results.
1. Press "Planning" button which will generate planned orders for the
shortage quantity.
Step 2) After entering information in all the fields, click to go to the next screen,
and Stock/requirement list displayed.
Troubleshooting
There might be the case wherein material master record does not exist. For
this, you need to create the material master for the material before running
MPS/MRP.
Ensure BOM and routing data is in place before running MRP to generate
procurement proposals based on requirements at all BOM levels otherwise,
Planned orders would be generated without BOM and hence would create
issues in further consumption process.
