ok forgive my naivety, but I need to know if something is possible. We would like to set up a safety stock system on Part A, which would trigger the production of Family B (Different Part Number), which creates 12 different parts, including Part A. When we run Family B, we use the Alternate parts transaction to put the parts into stock. Is there a way for Part A to trigger Family B?

We are ok with alternate parts and setting safety stock levels, its just the demand calling for another part number.

thanks in advance.

Is there a reason you would not plan for B (safety stock or MS) and have A demand driven by MRP?

 

Best-

Hi Christy,

We are trying to have an electronic Kanban system pulled from our assembly building. This triggers the Electronic Kanban in the Market place, automatically raising orders for sheet metal. the Part A and Family B are at the raw material end of the process.
