RE: Vendor scheduling -- SYSTEM21

The problem with our Vendor schedule print is that we forecast overseas
materials 4 months out.
We are not using any modifications (as in automotive user group mods).
On the VS company profile we have set period 1 (Firm) as days, period 2
(Forecast 1) as weeks and period 3 (Forecast 2) as weeks.
On local materials we use 40, 70, 100, as our period settings (contract
item maintenance).
However, on our overseas materials, our first period (firm) is 80 days,
then 105 and then 135,  which results in a print out that requires more
than one page to print all of the orders/forecast buckets.
Currently the print just stops where ever it runs out of room (usually
right at the beginning of Forecast 1 information).
Because most of our materials are ordered on a daily basis (Just In Time)
we must keep our firm period in daily increments.
I know someone out there can help us out.
Any and all suggestions and/or ideas are greatly appreciated.

You need to check the print file setup.  We had the same problem when using
the portrait layout/single page print file.  This is our current print file

Check your overflow line.  Hope this helps,

     We have an instance in vendor scheduleing where the schedule is more
     than 1 page long.  Is anyone else having this problem.  If you do, is
there
     a simple solution?  Thanks,  Margaret
