RE: [SYSTEM21] Planning stops in MRP/MPS

["Johnson, Duane" <djohnson@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

All of our calendars are set up thru the end of 2004.  (We only plan 6
months ahead, so won't need to add 2005 till the end of June)
This is the ONLY part that this is happening to.
The end date for this part is 04/27/04, everything else ends on 11/23/04.
(hmmmmm, that seems like more than 6 months to me, I'll have to check on
that)
We have found that this part shows a 70 day lead time, while all our other
parts have 0 lead time.  We're going to change that to 0, re-run MPS/MRP and
see what happens.
I'll let the list know the results.

Duane,

This is a symptom of your calendar not being set up far enough out into the 
future...  At least it is for us at V3.5.1.

I'm surprised it's only one part that is giving you the symptom though...  
So I'm not 100% convinced...  Do you have any other parts scheduled out past

this part...?  What is the End Date on the MPS/MRP screen when you run 
it...?

Just humor me and examine your Inventory calendar and your manufacturing 
calendar and make sure they are set up at least through 2005...  You always 
want to have 2 years of future calendar dates set up in all the apps...

Vendor scheduling also exhibits this symptom when the schedule horizon 
exceeds the available calendar dates...

Let me know...
Thanks.

Verify that the bill/route has not been affectively ended (if it is an
assembled item then this mean checking both the route that is used to
produce the item and the route where the item is consumed).

Also make sure on the item master that it also has have an item end date
assigned.

I am assuming that the production master detail hasn't been changed to
something that would prevent it from being planned.  One way to do this
would be to assigned the item as a forecast only item and not have a
forecast entered.

It's a part that we manufacture.

Has the vendor been cancelled?

We have ONE part for which all MPS/MRP planning has stopped as of the middle
of April.  We have requirements set up for this part all the way thru the
end of the year.  What might cause this?
