Dear experts,
How are you? I have some questions regarding planning parameters and some set-up in the item maintenance. This is my first time in using syteline ERP and I am confuse on how some set-up should be set accurately. I have checked the planning paremeters and these are the data:
General tab: Forecast look ahead=14; Forecast look behind=30
Fields with check: Apply scrap factor, Use dynamic leadtime, CO and forecast online, Mfg and PO online.
Reference tab: Use CO and forecast=both
Fields with check: Check PO requisitions; Check PO Req from PLN
Fences: 30day=120; 90day=240
APS is not installed.
According to your last reply, if the fixed lead time set in the item maintenance is greater than the planning paremeter look ahead, mrp won't show a plan for the item. But when I run MRP generation, and checked some items which has a higher fixed lead time than the forecast look ahead in the planning parameter, it is included in the order recommendation report.
Example: Item A with the following set up
General tab: Fixed lead time=15 days; Stocked with check; type: Material; source: Manufactured; cost method: specific
Planning tab: Days supply=15; Safety stock:12; with check: accept reqts and pass reqts; leadtime: paper work=2, fixed=15
Is there some errors on the above set-up?
Thanks and best regards,
Luz
