hi Pilar,Thank you. So I understand correctly, is the lot tracking something we would have to enable for a whole site? And would it enable us to see the source of a part delivered in a customer order? So we could see, for example, that the stock sent from from supplier x?Regards,Basil
Hello, does anyone have any info on this? Thanks!
Maybe it will help if I rephrase my question.We change supplier of parts, and our goal is to keep the same part number to reduce complexity. Supplier for purchase part enables this. The parts can be traded goods (purchased finished goods) or raw materials used in our production.When we ship the traded goods to customers, or when we ship manufactured goods (containing the raw materials) to customers, how can we see from which supplier those traded goods came from, or with which supplier’s raw materials were used in the manufactured good?
Hi, Thanks for asking whether a report or viewing an IFS screen. I would be happy with either. Regards,Basil
Hi Dario, Thank you very much. I have sent a message to the community member who posed the same question as me. It seems that there is not a good solution to it, despite it being a reasonable expectation to have a projected on-hand inventory figure in the future.Regards,Basil
@cjohnson I had the same question in another forum so I was really interested to read the responses, and that of @majose. I see the challenge where you select the required date (eg 31.12.2023) and if there is no supply or demand the part will not appear in the search. Do you know if there is any way around that?Many thanks,Basil
Hi Lakshan,Thank you for the good explanation. It was the Selective MRP that I was not aware of, but that makes sense now.Best regards,Basil
Thank you Mithun K V. We will test this.
Thank you Mithun KV , we will try this.Regarding “periods”, what is one period, is that one month? What is the recommended number of periods to use in the calculation?Concerning “service rate”, what best practice can be used to set these or is it a case of trial and error? Regards,Basil
Hi Mithun K V,Thank you. That was very helpful.Regards,Basil
Hi Mithun K V,We are using safety stock to cover supply and demand variance. If we know that the forecast should be increased or decreased in 8 weeks time, shouldn’t we change it, but be able to see this in the planning time fence period and IPAP?
Thank you for the response and suggestion to look at rate by period. We have tried that and do not find that as a good solution. Considering the high number of parts over numerous work centres defining the rates is difficult and the result was not as expected.
