Enabling the Memory-based Planning Engine
Enable the Memory-based Planning Engine when defining multiple MRP, DRP, MPS, or MDS names.
The Memory-based Planning Engine is the default planning engine for MRP, DRP, and MPS names. If you define your plan or schedule without enabling a planning engine, the Memory-based Planning Engine will be enabled for you. The Standard Planning Engine is the default planning engine for MDS names.
To enable the Memory-based Planning Engine:
2. Enter an alphanumeric name that identifies a unique material requirements or distribution requirements plan.
3. Select Yes in the flexfield to enable the Memory-based Planning Engine, or No to enable the Standard Planning Engine.
To define a schedule name:
1. Navigate to the Master Demand Schedules or Master Production Schedules window.
3. Select Yes in the flexfield to enable the Memory-based Planning Engine, or No to enable the Standard Planning Engine.
