Master Production Schedule Quantity Type (34/MS)

The system uses 34/MS as the UDC for MPS quantity types. Quantity types are predefined codes that define the display data on the time series screens and reports that use the F3413 table.

The UDC table 34/MS was developed as a subset of 34/QT. Upon review of 34/MS, notice that the quantity types have been reduced from the original quantity types in the 34/QT UDC table.

This table lists the valid quantity types and descriptions that are defined for MPS in UDC table 34/MS:

When you set up the time series inquiry, you can create a new UDC table for the quantity types and change the appropriate processing option to display this new table. You can also use processing options to display two different tables, such as adjusted and unadjusted quantities.

Each table displays only items that are pertinent to its application. For example, UDC table 34/DR displays only data items that apply to DRP items. If the code is not defined in UDC table 34/DR, it does not appear on the Work with Time Series form or report. DRP and MPS calculations are not affected by the appearance of this code.

If you do not specify a particular UDC list, all quantity types appear. However, the time series calculation is not affected by the quantity types that are not pertinent to the application.
