Hi,
I am checking the Update marking field, on the Automatic update tab of Master planning parameters form. this is what technet says about it:
Select the inventory marking policy to use when firming planned orders.
No – No inventory marking is performed.
Standard – Inventory marking is updated according to the pegging. A requirement order is marked against a fulfillment order. If some quantity remains on the fulfillment order, it is not marked.
Extended – Both the requirement order and the fulfillment order are marked, regardless of whether any quantity remains on the fulfillment order.
My question is, what does it mean by requirement order and fulfillment order?

Thank you Guy, this helped a lot.
Hi fgil12
Requirement is something that master planning is trying to fulfil.
The requirement order is the demand, such as a sales order. Master planning is creating the fulfilment order to satisfy the demand and is, for example, a purchase order.
