Production Planning Tool helps you plan production and purchase of Items for a period (usually a week or a month).
|
||
|
||
This list of Items can be generated from the open Sales Orders in the system and will generate:
|
||
|
||
- Production Orders for each Item.
|
||
- Purchase Requests for Items whose Projected Quantity is likely to fall below zero.
|
||
|
||
To use the Production Planning Tool, go to:
|
||
|
||
> Manufacturing > Production Planning Tool
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
<br>
|
||
|
||
|
||
#### Step 1: Select and get Sales Order
|
||
|
||
Select sales orders for MRP using filters (Time, Item, and Customer)
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
Click on Get Sales Order to generate a list.
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
<br>
|
||
|
||
|
||
#### Step 2: Get Item from Sales Orders.
|
||
|
||
You can add/remove or change quantity of these Items.
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
<br>
|
||
|
||
#### Step 3: Create Production Orders
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
<br>
|
||
|
||
#### Step 4: Create Material Request
|
||
|
||
Create Material Request for Items with projected shortfall.
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
<br>
|
||
|
||
The Production Planning Tool is used in two stages:
|
||
|
||
- Selection of Open Sales Orders for the period based on “Expected Delivery Date”.
|
||
- Selection of Items from those Sales Orders.
|
||
|
||
|
||
The tool will update if you have already created Production Orders for a particular Item against its Sales Order (“Planned Quantity”).
|
||
|
||
You can always edit the Item list and increase / reduce quantities to plan your production.
|
||
|
||
> Note: How do you change a Production Plan? The output of the Production Planning Tool is the Production Order. Once your orders are created, you can change them by amending the Production Orders.
