Specifies the number of the MRP controller or group of MRP controllers responsible for material planning for the material.

MRP Controller is responsible for Planning the material whereas the Purchasing Group is responsible for the purchase of the assigned materials.MD01MDBT

Key that determines whether and how the material is planned. You have the following options:Manual reorder point planningAutomatic reorder point planningForecast-based planningMaterial requirements planning with forecasts for unplanned consumptionMaster production scheduling (MPS)

Key for a buyer or a group of buyers, who is/are responsible for certain purchasing activities.UseInternally, the purchasing group is responsible for the procurement of a material or a class of materials.Externally, it is the medium through which contacts with the vendor are maintained.

10-Net Requirements Planning: This planning strategy is particularly useful in mass production environments; it is often combined with repetitive manufacturing. You should choose this strategy if you want production to be determined by a production plan (Demand Management) and if you do not want sales orders to influence production directly. One of the most important features of this planning strategy is that it enables you to smooth the demand program.

11-Gross Requirements Planning: The make-to-stock strategy gross requirements planning is particularly useful in mass production environments; it is often combined with repetitive manufacturing. This strategy is particularly useful if you need to produce, regardless of whether you have stock or not. For instance, steel or cement producers might want to use this strategy because they cannot shut down production; a blast furnace or a cement factory must continue to produce, even if this means having to produce to stock.Stock is not considered for calculating Planned Orders

20-Make-to-Order Production: In make-to-order production, a product is produced specifically for an individual sales order. This planning strategy is used when planning of the (parent) product is not required or not possible. Neither Demand Management is involved in this process, nor is there an allocation mechanism. Orders are taken as they come. This strategy represents a production procedure in which each product is only produced once, although over time the same or similar production processes are repeated. Each product is specifically produced for an individual customer so that the finished product is rarely placed in stock.

30-Production by Lot Size: This strategy is particularly useful for companies that mainly produce for major customers but who also require the option of selling smaller requirements from stock.

40-Planning with Final Assembly: This strategy is probably the most widely used make-to-stock strategy. It makes sense to use this planning strategy if you can forecast production quantities for the final product. Planned independent requirements are consumed by incoming sales orders so that the master plan is always adjusted to suit the current requirements situation. This means that the important feature of this planning strategy is that you can react quickly to customers’ requirements. The smoothing of the master plan is less important.

50-Planning w/o Final Assembly: Use this planning strategy when the main value-added process is final assembly. This strategy and Planning with a Planning Material (60) are probably the most widely-used strategies in a make-to-order environment. Like all make-to-order strategies, you should use strategy 50 if production is unique for each and every customer; in other words, it is not possible to change the stock for different sales orders.

63-Planning w/ a Planning Material and w/o MTO: This strategy allows you to procure non-variable components based on the planned independent requirements of a planning material. Production of the finished product, however, is based on actual sales orders. This procedure allows you to react quickly to customer requirements, even if the finished product has a long overall lead time; you can avoid the main value-added process until you have a customer.

Describe pp complete cycle?what are the different planning strategies?

diffrence between 10 &40mrp types

mrp proceduressop

configuration settings for mrp areas?what you done in onsite implementation

what do you mean by alternate item in bom? How will you define it?I am taking an mrp run for a material x for which y is a semifished product & z is a raw material. System is generating a planned order for x,y.

but it is not generating PR for z. what shoud I check?Can we restrict a bottom level material not to be planned?

Do you know capacity planning?Can we assign an opration to a perticular work center?

Do you know control key for predefined operation in routing?where can we define standard operation in a predefined format?

How shifts are defined?If I want to do shiftwise confirmation is it possible?

I have done order type confirmation & I want a report shiftwise. How will I get it?What do you mean by unloading point in production order?

Do you know the subcontracting process? What do you meab by operation subcontracting?What is the control key that is mentioned in operation subcontracting?

If you write a routing for a perticular operaion if a control key is pp04 what happens?Can I confirm an alternate work center in an operation?

How the product costing is done?Integration of product costing with pp?Did you worked in hr integration with pp confirmation parametrs?
