New Features in MRP and Supply Chain Planning Release 10.7.0.16.1SC

New features in this release include:

Copy Plan (BETA)

Once you have generated an MPS, MRP, or DRP plan, you can make a copy that is identical to the original. You can then view, implement, and replan either copy, discarding the altered plan at any time and preserving the original data. See: Making a Copy of a Completed Plan.

Enhanced Exceptions Messages (BETA)

In Release 10SC, Oracle Master Scheduling/MRP and Supply Chain Planning provides 10 new exception messages, allowing users to identify a greater number of planning problems and take more effective planning decisions. User's can also save and compare the messages generated by each planning run. See: Reviewing Planning Exceptions.

Online Planner (BETA)

With the online planner you can replan manual changes to supply and demand, without increasing database traffic. After starting the online planner, you can use the Planner Workbench to make changes to supply/demand data, then replan the changes to see their effect on the rest of the plan. You can then implement and release your changes from within the session. See: Replanning Net Changes.

Project and Seiban MRP (BETA)

Project MRP allows you to plan in a project or contract environment by segmenting all sources of supply and demand by project. This allows the planning process to identify components as shared or project specific, track existing inventories by project, and provide visibility to all supply and demand associated with a project.

Project MRP is completely integrated with Oracle Projects, to offer a comprehensive project manufacturing solution, but it can also work in isolation to support Seiban manufacturing methods. See: Project MRP.

Suppler Planned Inventories (BETA, Supply Chain Planning only)
