Subject: [BPCS-L] DRP for Dummies






I'm the dummy in this case because I've been trying to get DRP to work and
haven't been getting what I'm expecting.  I'm new to DRP and long ago I
knew MRP/MPS.  I want to set up DRP in our test database before we try it
in our live environment.  We do have DRP set up from facility 01 to
facilities 02 and 03.  It was set up by people who no longer work here and
now I need to get a better understanding of DRP so we can set up a similar
configuration from facility 02 to facility 03 (02 builds FG and 03 builds
component).

I have set up created a shop order for the 02 item (B100).  In MRP300 the
requirements for the 03 item (N100) appear under facility 02.  I was
expecting them to appear under 03 as a planned order which I firm up and
create an 03 shop order from.  In DRP100 I have created a record for N100,
To Fac=02, From Fac=03.  How should I set CIC records up in DRP140?

We are at version 4.0.2 and do not use customer orders or billing in BPCS.
Those come in from Future3 as forecasts and ultimately get shipped there.
We do use BPCS MPS/MRP/DRP and shop orders.  Thanks.
