Message Detail

Each time that you generate a resource requirements plan, the system creates messages to identify work centers with loads that conflict with planned capacity. Review Message Detail indicates whether you have overload or underload conditions. Messages for each work center appear alphabetically by message type.

Use the Capacity Planning Message Revisions program to clear, hold, or delete messages. You cannot process capacity messages. You can add remarks for each message to record the actions that you take. In addition, you can access related forms to confirm or change dates, amounts, and manufacturing data for key plants for the work center.

You can generate a plan more than once. When you regenerate a resource requirements plan, the system deletes all messages except:

  • Messages that you entered manually.

  • Messages that you placed on hold.
