Re: 4.05 CD Daily Lead Time Rate

Ramona,

I agree with the others in that order policy A will give you a planned order every day there is demand. It wont level the quantities out as you seem to be requesting but if you download the planned orders and the daily lead time rate it is an easy calc to see how many days of production you have. If that is a workable solution go with it. If you still need daily orders capped at some max quantity you may need to take a look at the JIT module. It uses the production line and max run rate fields alnog with order policy K (I think) to create the daily shop orders. Warning: To make it work is far more complex than using order policy A. I havent worked with this for quite some time so not sure if it is still a viable solution for your situation.

Regards,
Larry Costain

BPCS version 4.05CD
Would like to know if anybody has an idea of how to use the facility
lanning daily lead time rate but create multiple planned orders? We are
ttempting to use the daily lead time as the daily capacity of the
inished good. The forecast is backing up the planned order to the
orrect start date but we would like one planned order per day in order
o:
1) Space out the raw material planned orders, not all material is needed
n the first day of production
2) Create daily shop orders to dispatch to production
Any advice is appreciated.
