Hi Team,
I have requirement that during MRP run (MD02), planned order to be created for my FERT item with "Forward schedjuling". I understand that MRP always performed with "Backward Scheduling" by default. But i have below clarifications.
Q1: If i set the scheduling type as 'Forward Scheduling" in OPU5 for my plant & order type (LA), still MRP run in MD02 performs "Backward scheduling"?
Q2: How the basic start date & basic end date for my planned orders are calculated during MRP using "Forward Scheduling" with the below assumptions.
Assumptions:
1. In OPU5, for my plant & order type "LA" "Forwad scheduling" is set
2. I do not have routing for my FERT item & i have default operation set in OPJG for my order type & plant
3. In house production time is maintained as 2 days in my FERT material master
4. I have BOM for my FERT item which has only one ROH item.
5. For the ROH item, in my material master, i have set the planned delivery time as 3 days.
6. For the ROH item, the current stock in the plant is ZERO.
7. GR Processing time for both the FERT & ROH item is ZERO.
8. All the days are working day in my plant except saturday & Sunday
9. In MD04, i do not have any entries for my FERT item except the below PIR quantity of 5
10. In MD04, i do not have any entries for my ROH item
11. I did not maintain any schedule margin key for my FERT & ROH item in my material master.
With the above assumptions, i have created the PIR for my FERT item on 01.08.2014 for the quantity 5.
Q3: With this condition, if run MRP for my FERT item, what will be the "basic start date" & "basic end date" for my FERT planned order & what will be the "basic start date" & "basic end date" for my ROH planned order?
Thanks
