MRP II
The Material Requirements Planning application determines exact component requirements and manufacturing schedules based on product forecast and commitments to customers. Once the demand for top-level assemblies and service parts has been established, the system computes the quantities of components needed to meet the demand. It provides on-line inquiry into the database. A material planner can display or review the items requirements schedule, open orders and suggested action, suggested new orders and also the pegging.
Specific features of the Material Requirements Planning application include:
- ‘Bucketless’ processing
- Time phased make/buy parts requirements schedule
- Single, top level, and order pegging
- Demand sensitivity filter processing
- Automatic creation of planned order options
- Issue by operation logic
