MRP Demand issue

Hello,

Currently our set up does not include item received but not yet inspected. While a PO is in open status MRP looks at the open order and considers it in MRP evaluation but once that item is received yet not approved for use it is not considered by MRP and I am prompted to order more of this item sitting in limbo until QC inspect and approves it.

Now on the other hand this works well for our finished goods of which we do not want Sales to see the items as available until QC has completed their inspection.

Seems like we are missing something in the set up here.

Any suggestions?

Thanks, 

Philip

Hi,

Please give some details about the arrival process and functionalities used. Do you use “Arrival” or “Q/C” location or just Availability Control?

Referring to this:

“but once that item is received yet not approved for use it is not considered by MRP”

MRP should ‘see’ quantity that is already registered as arrived unless you have granted particular availability control id. ACI may cause that items arrived are nont visible to MRP.

BR, Lukasz
