Hi Folks,
I need your help on an urgent issue regarding MRP.
In general if we run MD02 with ‘Create purchase req.’ = 2, system creates PReq for the requirements within the opening period and Planned order for the requirements outside of opening period. But this functionality is not working with "Planning Time Fence". Please find below an example of the requirement:
Old settings in material master data:
MRP1 view: MRP type= PD; Planning time fence= space.
MRP2 view: Schedule margin Key(opening period = 10 days)
If we run MD02 with ‘Create purchase req.’ = 2, it creates PReq for requirements within the opening period and Planned order for the requirements outside of opening period.
MD04: (If we do not use the “planning time fence” then this is working fine).
New settings in material master data:
MRP1 view: MRP type= P1; Planning time fence= 100 days.
MRP2 view: Schedule margin Key(opening period = 10 days)
But if we use PTF = 100 days (MRP type P1), it’s creating only planned orders. No PReq has been created for the opening period from end of Planning time fence (29.03.2016).
Requirement is: System should create PReq automatically instead of hilighted planned order. The other planned order (01.06.2016) should be as it is (outside of the opening period from end of Planning time fence).
How can we achieve this?
Thanks and best regards,
Surajit
