Hello there,

We find it difficult to obtain information how to work successful with the MRP640 program and look for advise.

PS: In our setup items get produced by going through multiple routing steps on different work centres.

When working with MRP640 to plan the production and create the shop orders from here we experienced that only routing entries are getting considered where the work centre is assigned to the production line we are working in. Other routing steps with different work centres from the same routing are getting ignored and dropped in the shop order creation with option 6.

We wonder as well how to optimize the production plan generation considering with capacity constraints when using MRP640 as the only available capacity planning tool.

How do you use MRP640 in your environment?

Thanks in advance for some tips & advise

Regards
