Prashanth:Your understanding is correct. MPS Planned order will be created in accordance with the values defined for the item in a facility (MRP140) in accordance with Demand Time Fences, Minimum Balance, Lot Size, Order Policy and Lead Time if the MPS field is selected. Items without the MPS field selected are handled by the MRP600 program in accordance with the planning parameters for the item.
Demand from Forecasts and Customer Orders may be treated differently by setting different values for Demand Fence 1 and 2. My company has a DTF of 21 days for Customer Orders only; beyond 21 days the MPS uses the Greater of Forecasts and Customer Orders only.

From: "p d" <prd2005@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Reply-To: "SSA's BPCS ERP System" <bpcs-l@xxxxxxxxxxxx> To: bpcs-l@xxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [BPCS-L] MRP-MPS query Date: 10 Aug 2005 04:37:56 -0000 Hi,Would like to have your feedback on following (my understanding of MPS-MRP processes in BPCS):Forecast (in case of make-to-stock) or Customer Order (in case of make-to-order or assemble-to-order scenario) creates Demand or Requirement for FG (Finished Goods) MPS item i.e. KMR record for FG MPS item.Upon running MPS (MRP500-Master Schedule), this Demand or Requirement (KMR) drives & creates Planned Order (KFP record) for this FG MPS item which further drive & creates Demand or Requirement (KMR) for next (Child) MPS item which in-turn creates Planned Order (KFP) for that MPS item. This continues till the end of BOM structure.Upon running MRP (MRP600-Explode Requirements) which takes MPS item Planned Order (KFP) as Input & generates Demand or Requirement for next (Child) non-MPS item which in-turn creates Planned Order (KFP) for the same non-MPS item. This continues till end of explosion of all MPS items.Pl. correct me wherever I am wrong.
