You can optionally choose to net WIP, purchases, reservations and subinventories when launching the planning process.

   To net purchases, WIP, and reservations:

1. Navigate to the Plan Options window.

2. Check Net Purchases, Net WIP, and Net Reservations to net supply and demand for each.

Net WIP: Consider standard discrete jobs, non-standard discrete jobs, or repetitive schedules when planning the items during the last execution of the plan.

Net Reservations: Consider stock designated for a specific order when planning the items during the last execution of the plan.

Net Purchases: Consider approved purchase requisitions and approved purchase orders when planning the items during the last execution of the plan.

3. Save your work.

Attention: You can also override these default options for individual plans and organizations when you generate an MPS, MRP or DRP plan from the Launch MPS, Launch MRP, or Launch DRP windows. Choose Plan Organizations in the Launch MPS Launch MRP, or Launch DRP window.

   To net subinventories:

1. Navigate to the Plan Organizations window.

2. Enter a name in the Organizations region and choose Subinventory Netting.

3. For each item, check Net to indicate that you want to net supply and demand for these subinventories.

Note: You assign a netting type when you define a subinventory in Oracle Inventory. The planning process considers the inventory in a nettable subinventory as supply. You can override the netting type for a specific subinventory when you launch the planning process.

4. Check the unlabeled, coordination check box (next to the Type field) if you want to constantly update the coordination of records between the Plan Options and Subinventory Netting windows. See: Master-detail Relationships.

5. Save your work.
