Hi,
I have an item with a Lot-for-Lot Reordering Policy and an Order Multiple of 25.
I have 90 units on Component Lines and when I run MRP I am prompted to purchase 90 units. I was expecting Nav to tell me to purchase 100 units instead of 90 since 90 is not divisible by 25.
I'm trying to determine why MRP is not rounding up the qty so that it is divisible by the order multiple.
Below is a screenshot of the planning parameters on the Item Card
Thanks
Drew,
A few more questions:
On the Inventory Setup is Location Mandatory?
Do you have Stockkeeping Units setup?
Not sure if you are Manufacturing requires certain Locations to get inventory components from another Location. DO you have this?
When you ran the Req. Worksheet were you planning from that day forward?
My tests are working fine in my test database but if you can answer the questions I can help more. And yes, if I have Locations I set that to Mandatory. If I have more than 1 Location, I setup Stockkeeping Units.
Thanks,
Steve
Hi Steve
I've edited my original post to include a screenshot of the planning parameters that are set up for the SKU.
I read what you posted but I'm still unsure why my Order Multiple value is getting ignored.
Under what circumstances will Nav ignore the Order Modifiers that are defined on the Item Card?
Drew,
Here is some information that might point you to why the 90 was used...
Define How Much to Reorder
If the planning system detects the need to reorder, the selected reordering policy is used to determine when and how much to order. Independent of the reordering policy, the planning system usually follows this logic:
The following reorder period fields also play a role in defining how much to reorder: Rescheduling Period, Lot Accumulation Period, and Dampener Period.
Reordering Policies
The following reordering policies affect the quantity that is being reordered.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
Steve
