What information am I supposed to use to populate the Number of Days field in the Item Resource Planning Maintenance card? Basically, what number of days does this field refer to?
Any feedback would be helpful.

I would like to add a point to the above. you can check these things from within GP by clicking the F1 button for any form/field/button you needed information . Note: The help file is only available for the GP forms and it is very informative.
Thank you so much.

This field is used for Manufacturing
item demand calculated/verification (Manufacturing Resource Planning) and PO generation calculation.
Number of Days
This field is available only if the order policy for the item is Period Order Quantity.
Enter the number of days to be considered in calculations of supply of the item.
For example, if demand for 30 days should be consolidated into a single order, you’d enter 30.
To know about the order policy, please have a look on the GP abbreviation.
Order Policy
This field is available only for items whose type is Sales Inventory or Discontinued.
Select the order policy to be used for the item.
If you select Use PO Gen, the Calculate MRP for the item/site option automatically is cleared. If you’ve identified the site as the master site for the item, the order policy must be Use PO Gen.
If you select Not Planned, you won’t be able to edit any information for the item or item-site combination in the Purchase Order Generator Item Maintenance window. This option is selected automatically for inactive items.
Other order policies are available if you’re using Manufacturing. Refer to the Manufacturing documentation for more information.
The order policy you select determines the fields that are available in this window.
Hope this helps!!!
The Number of Days is used only by MRP's 'Period Order Quantity' Order Policy. It is the number of days of demand that MRP will consider when suggesting an order quantity.
