RE: Using order policy code B

Arno,

You will also need the "Carrying Cost Factor"  and the "Number of active
business days" in addition to the "Order Cost".  All of these fields are
part of IM application tailoring.  See questions (XA Release 6) I36, I37,
I39.  You may also want to set the "Reorder Tolerance Percent" Question I40.

Also, note that Order Policy Codes B and C are "Reorder Point" and MRP does
not plan for these codes.  They have nothing to do with MRP.  To generate
orders you must setup for the degree of automation you wish, and then run
the ReOrder Report from IM.

Subject: Using order policy code B

MRP is installed and interfacing. Objective is to manage our raw material by
using order policy code B (order up to quantity).

The quantity to be ordered an be generated bij EOQ formula, but you have to
fill the 'OCOST' (cost of placing order) field, but I can't find it.

Can you help me in using order policy code B?
