Hi Kasun,

You will need to look into the "coverage settings" for your manufactured item.

Some things to check:

What "coverage group" is the product assigned to and what is that coverage group's "coverage code"?

If it is set to "Requirement", then MRP will generate orders on a one-to-one relationship i.e. for each sales order, there is a respective production order.

If it is set to "Period" then all requirements (i.e. sales orders) within the coverage period (days) will be grouped into an individual production order on a many-to-one relationship.

Master planning > Setup > Coverage > Coverage groups

What are the item coverage settings assigned to this product?

A product can have specific item coverage settings that override those of the coverage group.

On the product record, select the "Plan" tab and then open the "Item coverage" form.

Check if there are any site/warehouse specific settings.

A quick solution is on the "Planned orders" list page, you can select to "Group" planned orders, this will allow you to consolidate the current planned orders into one.

Regards,

Matt
