Understanding JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Requirements Planning for Project Manufacturing
JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Requirements Planning from Oracle provides a means for you to use resource planning tools in distribution or manufacturing environments. JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Requirements Planning enables you to use supply and demand balancing logic to create material schedules and detailed production plans that support single-facility or multifacility planning.
The JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Requirements Planning system integrates with JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Project Manufacturing to support production controlled items.
The process flow for Requirements Planning for Project Manufacturing uses many of the same programs as JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Requirements Planning.
You use a production number to track the demand of production controlled items in sales order detail lines and forecasts. The JD Edwards EnterpriseOne system allows only one type of top-level demand for production controlled items with an associated production number at any instant in time, either a forecast or a sales order. If a production controlled item has a sales order, then the item with the same production number cannot have a forecast.
The system considers safety stock as generic demand whether or not JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Project Manufacturing is enabled. Production controlled inventory is not used to supply safety stock.
MRP includes the in transit, inspection, and other quantity buckets as on-hand inventory if the Receipt Routing Quantities processing options on the On Hand Data tab of the MRP/MPS Requirements Planning program (R3482) and On Hand tab of the Master Planning Schedule - Multiple Plant program (R3483) are set to a value of 1.
The system stores production number information in the following tables:
MPS/MRP/DRP Message File (F3411)
MPS/MRP/DRP Lower Level Requirements File (F3412)
Vendor Schedule Quantity File (F3430)
Vendor Schedule Commitment File (F3435)
Ad Hoc Vendor Schedule File (F3450)
Forecast File (F3460)
The JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Requirements Planning system does not support the following functionality for production controlled items:
Receipt routing.
The system does not provide visibility to the transit and inspection buckets.
Fixed order quantity.
Forecast consumption.
Planning time fence rules:
Note: A production number can have only one source of demand. Because a production number has either a forecast or a sales order, the following functionality is not supported for an item with an associated production number.C: Customer demand before, greater of forecast or customer demand after
F: Forecast before, forecast plus customer demand after
G: Greater of forecast or customer demand before, forecast after
H: Greater of forecast or customer demand before (for forecast consumption)
S: Customer demand before, forecast after
3: Zero before, forecast plus customer demand after
