  • Subject: Changing Bills of Material
  • From: "Ritsema, Doug B" <Doug.Ritsema@xxxxxxxxxx>

I'm looking to do a quantity based cutoff for a raw material.  I've used the
effective dates in the Product Structure for time based cutoffs, is there
something similar for quantity?

We have a item 12345 that uses 1 lb of ABCD.  We have 500 lb that we own.
We want to switch from ABCD to ZYXW.  We want MRP to prompt us to buy ZYXW
instead of ABCD.  

We are running REP and I know that in a released REP schedule I can put in a
cutoff quantity but I need to effect the change further out than we release
our schedules.

Any ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks
