Hi all
I have a situation, where the vendor is only delivering on a specific(s) day(s).
Let's take one material, where it is only possible for the vendor to deliver on Fridays,
I have a requirement for material XX on thursday 10.09, but the MRP calculates the PurReq to be delivered Friday 11.09.
This is not a good solution, because the material will arrive later than the requirement.
I would like to have the MRP calculation the PurReq to be delivered on 04.09, so that the Next week requirement is captured.
I have set up the material master with a Planning Cycle, where MRP calculates every day, but i then have another planning cycle for delivery, which is only set for Fridays. Furthermore i have set up a MRP type that uses MRP procedure "R" (please see attachment)
Lead time for material is 7 days
So let me try to illustrate
27.08.2015 --> Calculating MRP
10.09.2015 --> Requirement for material XX
11.09.2015 --> PurReq's delivery date is calculated
This illustrate the issue = the material will arrive one day after the requirement.
I would like that the PurReq's delivery date was calculated to 04.09.2015
27.08.2015 --> Calculating MRP
04.09.2015 --> PurReq's delivery date is calculated
10.09.2015 --> Requirement for material XX
