Hi Al,

Quick question; does these items (or parent items) have minimum balances?  I
know mins will sometimes create those undesired requirements...

One of my BPCS users asked me how come,
when we run MRP200 we sometimes get items that do not need human attention.
Some pages have no requirements to make anything, and / or the on-hand 
exceeds the requirements.
We are 405 CD Rel-2 & multitude of Y2K BMRs.
We have not modified MRP200.
We typically run it for planner 7 (raw materials that are REALLY raw 
materials from outside vendors) in a certain range of item #s
BPCS documentation claims that it only lists those items which require 
planning action.
We interpret doing something about excess inventory as something other than 
planning action.
I spent a while looking at the documentation, and I do not have an answer 
for my co-worker as yet.
