By assigning a storage location in a sales order or by entering an MRP<br />

area when creating<br />

the planned independent requirements, you can define whether a material<br />

is planned in the<br />

plant MRP area or in the MRP area of the storage location.<br />

Material requirements planning for each MRP area allows you to have<br />

specific control over<br />

the staging and procurement of parts produced in-house and purchased<br />

parts for each shop<br />

floor and assembly area. If, for example, you define an MRP area for<br />

the production<br />

storage location of an assembly line, the system plans the material<br />

requirements for the<br />

assembly line separately from all other requirements.<br />

Example: Subcontractor<br />

You can also carry out planning for components to be provided in<br />

subcontracting using an<br />

MRP area by defining an MRP area for every subcontractor and assigning<br />

the components to be<br />

provided to the MRP area of the subcontractor. You therefore plan the<br />

requirements to be<br />

provided for these components for one subcontractor separately from all<br />

other requirements.<br />

Depending on the requirements situation, the system creates either<br />

stock transfer reservations<br />

from the plant to the stock of material provided of the subcontractor<br />

or it creates purchase<br />

requisitions within subcontracting/third-party order processing,<br />

according to the special<br />

procurement key settings.<br />

The planning run takes into account the planning with MRP areas as<br />

follows:<br />

If you do not enter a separate scope of planning, the system plans the<br />

whole plant, that is,<br />

all MRP areas in the plant, during the total planning run. If you want<br />

to carry out a total<br />

planning run for a particular MRP area only, you must specify the<br />

required MRP area in the<br />

scope of planning.<br />

During single-item, multi-level planning, the system plans the selected<br />

material in the MRP<br />

area entered. In addition, the system takes into account planning file<br />

entries from other<br />

MRP areas, for example, if the material is to be procured using stock<br />

transfer.<br />

During single-item, single-level planning, the system plans the<br />

selected material in the
