RE: MTO v MTS

["Rob Stagis" <stagis@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Ours was a two-fold approach.  Much as I hate them, we have a meaningful
part number - the third digit denotes 'standard' or 'special'.
Additionally, for manufacturing, those items with a non-zero IMIN are
make-to-stock.  4.05 CDS

We manufacture a number of products, some of which are Make to Stock (MTO)
and some of which are Make to Order (MTO). It is important to us,
especially in planning, to understand when an item is one or the other. We
can't seem to find a good way in the item master or the facility master to
designate this information about the item.

What approaches have others taken?
