Hi all,

Is there anyway to add a note against Purchase Req Lines in a Planned state? There is a note text field but this is wiped once MRP runs at the end of each day. We considered sticky notes but then a note has to be added against each Purchase Req (not viable). This will prevent demand being created where it’s not required or notify other team members a purchase req is currently being queried. Would appreciate any suggestions!

Thanks,

Robert

If you are adding a note or altering the information on the line, you can’t leave them in Planned state.  MRP is always going to replace the Planned Reqs on the next run.  The requisition might be for the same part tomorrow, but it isn’t the same requisition number.

The only method to retain the information is to Release the requisition.

Hi @robert_g ,

would like to add something to the solution @ShawnBerk has mentioned.

For the suggested solution to work, the below setting in the site should be selected. Otherwise the MRP will not consider a released purch requisition as a planned supply, so that replace it with a new planned purchase requisition even though it is released.

 

Thanks,
