Firmed planned orders have no reference to sales order

(0) ShareShare

Hi,

I have a finished good item D, which consists of raw materials item A, B, and C - where A&B is a sub-BOM to item D. When I run master scheduling either through sales order of item D, I get to production orders i.e. for production of item D and the sub-production of items A and B. When I firm the orders, I do not get a reference to the sales order on the production order of item D, nor a reference to the production order of item D on the production of sub-BOM (i.e. items A & B). Naturally, it has a reference to the master scheduling planned order before it was firmed, which means it would be necessary to look at the master scheduling log but this is tedious to maintain.

When I create production directly from the sales order without running master scheduling, I do get reference to the sales order on the production order - which does make sense.

Is this a general system setting in AX that master scheduling does not necessarily specify where the requirements come from? If so, is there a way to enable reference?

Thanks in advance.

Best regards,

Rolly

    Hi Rolly Rulona,

    Did you checked the planned order reference section in the references fast tab  in the production order where there are two fields which give the reference of the planned order. The fields are "Master plan" and "Number" giving details of the master plan and the planned order number.

    Hi Sagar Suman,

    Thank you for your reply. :)

    Yes, I did. It does naturally refers to the firmed master plan number i.e. planned production order which makes sense. I just find it tedious to go all the way back to the master scheduling log and from there see which requirement it generated it from. But I guess it is a standard setting in AX (and perhaps ERP system in general).

    Best regards,

    Rolly Rulona

    The supply and demand can rebalance depending upon movement, so they are not hard pegged UNLESS it is created directly from an order. Remember the trigger point might not be a sales order it could be transfer, production, minimum stock and these can all be fluid as the supply/demand picture alters within the planning horizon.
