Prepayment on Sales Order and MRP

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 4
How is it possible for MRP to not process parts until pre-payment invoice (deposit) is received on a sales order? 
 
- We do not want to start building product until we get pre-payment
- Typically Send Manual Pro Forma invoice to get pre payment as we leave order as quote until we get deposit
- Hoping to have MRP not read demand on Sales Order (tested and it will read it on open status) 
 
Any other processes or suggestions appreciated.

    Thank you Shauna, we were hoping that we could use the Invoice for Pre-Payments function. To not have to do the Pro Forma Manual Invoice.
     
    Any other suggestions or work arounds to not have to do the deposit so manually? Thanks again for your reply!

    Hi,
     
    I believe that MRP does not read sales quotes as demand so could you do the following?
    1. Create Sales Quote
    2. Send manual pro forma invoice for prepayment.
    3. Once deposit is received, convert quote to order and then MRP can plan?
     
    Hope that helps,
    Shauna
