Hello,
My client uses both DOP and MRP for his manufacturing.
Configured parts are managed with DOP.
Not configured manufactured parts & purchased parts are handled by MRP.
Example :
TOP PART - Configured - DOP
→ COMPONENT1 - Purchased - MRP
→ SUBPART - Manufactured/Not configured - MRP
→ COMPONENT2 - Purchased - MRP
With this, DOP will create a Shop order for TOP PART at DOP Release, and MRP will handle the creation of Purchase requisitions / Shop order requisitions should there be shortages.
However, we discovered that when we create a DOP structure (DOP header in status “Unreleased”), and then run the MRP at this moment, purchase requisitions will be created for shortages.
This is dangerous because the structure of an unreleased DOP header can still evolve before being released is case of customizations of a product for example.
→ Is there a way to make unreleased Dop orders not visible by the MRP ?
Thank you,
PL
