Coverage Code Min Max

Posted on by CU09060724-0

Coverage codes (with the exception of Manual, which causes MRP to not calculate for these item) use the values in the “Minimum” field of the “Item coverage” form to determine safety stock. Then why we have separate coverage code for Min Max. Usually a item demand is coming from a Sales order or derived from dependent demand from a production order, business buy pretty much to the demand , in some cases for long lead items or items that are always in short supplies we keep a Min balance to keep production running . i can keep a MIN or MAX on Coverage group Period or Requirement. What special in Min/Max code has to offer here. Am i missing something?

RE: Coverage Code Min Max

Hi Yashpal Shringi,

Can you elaborate your requirement?

The max/min coverage code means that when the inventory is below the min value, MRP will calculate and supplement to the max value. If you have the inventory strategy, it can be used to control inventory.

You can also set the min quantity in item coverage when coverage code is Period or Requirement, it will calculate the min inventory requirement value.

Hi Yashpal Shringi,

Unless you override the coverage group settings in the General tab, you cannot define the maximum value on the Requirement coverage code and the Period coverage code.

RE: Coverage Code Min Max

Hi Rahul,

Thank you, I didn't notices that MAX was Un-editable on other two groups.

No I set up MIN as 10 and MAX as 100 with a coverage group as MIN MAX, MRP run suggest to buy 100 , that is buy to MAX value.

what does MIN has to play a role now here ? with Requirement and Period as Coverage MRP was buying to MIN value.

Hi Yashpal,

The system will trigger the planned replenishment when the inventory is below the minimum value.
