Just to clarify certain things, MRP can be run for any material...be it finished or semi<br />

finished or raw material. Actually when you run a MRP for the finished product using<br />

MD02, you are doing a multilevel run.<br />

Secondly, when you are using 40 for the finished product you may or may not use any<br />

strategy for the semi finished goods. It depends on your business. If you are going to<br />

produce semi finished goods independent of the finished goods, you may have a make to<br />

stock strategy 10 (one of the many options) and produce them independent of the finished<br />

good requirement. Now when a requirement will be generated for the finished good and a<br />

MRP run will be taken, it will show that the Semi Finished is either in stock or a<br />

planned/production order exists and thus only the remaining quantity will be planned for<br />

(there is a better strategy existing for this type of a scenario.....<br />

However if you do not put any strategy for the Semi Finished, then planned orders will be<br />

created for the Semi Finished for the same quantity as the orders created for the Finished<br />

goods.<br />

MRP Monthly lot size<br />

Appreciated if some guide can be provided.<br />

MRP lot size has been set to MB (Monthly lot size)<br />

It is known that with this setting, material are always bring in on the first working<br />

day of the month.<br />

Ex: Dep requirement 26-10-04 100 pcs<br />

Dep requirement 30-10-04 190 pcs<br />

When MRP completion, the PR item shown 1-10-2004 290 pcs, is that any possible<br />

to bring in material just right before dependant requirement 26-10-04 say about 24<br />

or 25 of the month.<br />

Because. we dont tend to keep more stocks until actual requirement.<br />

Any comment are welcome.<br />

In that case you might like to consider lot size key WB (weekly). It will bring in material<br />

at the first working day of the week. In your case it is Oct 25, 2004<br />

But in this case, I will have increase administrative cost on monitoring the material<br />

lot weekly.<br />

I want to have monthly lot size that group all the requirement, but bring in material<br />

as close as possible on the first requirement.<br />

Any comment are welcome..
