Hello, 

 

I have a question about a think thing in the inventory part available planning. When we have adjusted order quantities, we have made changes in the lot size. But what happens in IFS when placing an order if there are also values entered in Min lot size, Max lot size, Multiple lot size, and Std lot size? Do any of these fields have a controlling effect?

Hi ​@Vallin98,

I believe no changes will happen in the minimum, maximum and multiple lot size values when you update the Lot Size manually. 

For planning method B used in combination with inventory planning and replenishment (IPR), the minimum, maximum and multiple lot size are considered in the calculation of the part’s lot size (automatically). Note that minimum, maximum, and multiple lot size are not used as part of the order proposal calculation, they merely work as a base for defining the lot size that is used in the order proposal calculation.
