Hi @KennethP,
The difference between "Perform PMRP per Project PNG" and "Perform Project MRP per Planned Netting Group" comes down to how they plan resources. The first option plans for each PNG separately, focusing only on the needs of that specific group. The second option considers all PNGs together, looking at shared resources and dependencies between them.
Practical Example: Imagine you’re managing multiple PNGs in a construction project. PNG A is focused on the foundation, while PNG B is for building the walls. If you run "Perform PMRP per Project PNG," it will only plan resources for PNG A and PNG B separately, without worrying about shared resource constraints like delivery trucks or specialized workers moving between these two groups. However, if you run "Perform Project MRP per Planned Netting Group," it will look at all resources across the PNGs together, ensuring that shared needs like delivery schedules or equipment availability are coordinated across both PNGs to avoid conflicts or delays.
Hope this helps!
Hi Yathartha,
Thanks for the clarification! However, when you mention delivery trucks and specialized workers I had not imagined that they would be planned by PMRP; how would specialized workers be taken into account in PNG planning?
Best regards,
Kenneth
Hi @KennethP,
The mention of delivery trucks and specialized workers in the earlier example was meant to illustrate the concept of shared resources across PNGs. These aren't always directly planned by PMRP itself. Sorry if I misled you!

Hi Yatharta,
Thanks for the clarification, I’m fine with that as long as I know I haven’t missed something fundamental
