Ignore large Purchase Order

Hello, 

I have a question related to a large stock up and I am hoping there is a way IFS can handle. I setup a large qty PO for a bank build. However, I am hoping to somehow flag that PO to be ignored by MRP, as it is unique. The issue is that this large purchase skews the forecasting/demand. 

I’ve gone through the help and do not see anything that seems to indicate if this scenario can be handled. Any guidance would be appreciated. Thank you.

@cjohnson  please see this post.

 

@matt.watters suggests quite a neat solution → freeze the PO Header and then it will not be considered by MRP.

Then when you receive the PO, you could setup an availability control on it so that it’s not nettable if the stock must be ignored by MRP even after receipt is done.

Thanks @Marcel.Ausan and @matt.watters I believe this workflow is just what I’m looking for!
