Hi,
We have a customer that needs to sequence manufacturing of multiple parts in for packing and installation.
For example:
- They need a total 30 x Part P1 and 7 x Part P2
- For packing and installation they might to make the parts in the follow quantities.
- 5 x P1
- 2 x P2
- 10 x P1
- 1 x P2
- 3 x P1
- 2 x P2
- 5 x P1
- 2 x P2
- 7 x P1
- The finished goods have multiple parts that are both purchased and subassemblies made other shop orders.
- They aren’t using DOP.
- The demands for the shop orders are generated by PMRP.
The preference is not to split this into multiple shop orders for the sequencing (ie just one shop order for 30 x P1 and one shop order 7 x P2).
Another option is that if we do split the final parts into multiple shop orders for sequencing, after the initial run of PMRP, the shop orders for underlying assemblies don’t get split up, also, ie they remain as if we're making 30 x P1 one shop order and 7 x P2 on 2 shop orders instead of 9.
Cheers,
Craig
