Hello,

Out of all our parts we have many that are “Planned by MS” and many that are “Site MRP”. I have found 4 parts (3 are in the structure of one) which are defined as “Selective MRP”. 

How would these have been set as “Selective MRP”? Does it result in any difference when MRP is run?

Thank you.

Regards,

Basil

Hi Basil,

‘Planned by MS’ is setting for the parts defined as MS Level 1/0 parts. They are excluded from MRP calculation since their supplies are balancing from Master Scheduling (MS).

“Site MRP” is setting from Site MRP run when you are performing MRP for entire site using Perform Site MRP dialog.

“Selective MRP” is setting when you perform MRP selectively for specific part. This is a lite version of Site MRP option which can use to quickly generate supplies required for a specific part. In the Perform Site MRP dialog you can find the command to ‘Selection’ and do the required selection based on part or part specific things like Planner, Product Family, Product Code, etc..

Thanks!

Best Regards,

Lakshan

Hi Lakshan,

Thank you for the good explanation. It was the Selective MRP that I was not aware of, but that makes sense now.

Best regards,

Basil
