Vendor card lead times and MRP

Hi all

I have question about adjusting vendor lead times in NAV and its impact on MRP.

We know that there are vendor lead times on the vendor cards, however, we have been led to believe that adjusting this number does not impact MRP and the calculation for all the SKU’s a vendor might supply. Instead, we are of the understanding we have to update each item card for lead time along with the ROP/ROQ parameters to affect MRP calculations.

Essentially we are seeing unprecedented lead time extensions in our industry and need to update our system, I would like to understand if there are some more global approaches we can take that the vendor level to at least account for the vendor side of the equation

Any suggestions and information is much appreciated.

Thanks.

Hi Drew,

Thank you for the question. I will provide you a link and you can review the bottom section...
Date Calculation for Purchases - Business Central | Microsoft Docs

From a priority standpoint, we would look at the following:
1. Vendor Item Catalog (You can find on the Item Card > Navigate Tab
2. Item SKU Card
3. Item Card
4. And then Vendor Card if neither of the above are used.

Have a good day:)
