Introduction

Material requirement planning (MRP) is a production planning, scheduling, and inventory control system used to manage manufacturing processes.
This blog walk you through on the steps for MRP.

Material Requirement Plan

  • On options page you can select unit, year, report type, plan range from, plan range to and there are specific checkbox to select;
  1. Add pending order qty to plan qty.
  • If there are any pending orders those can be added to the plan qty in the production plan.
  1. Adjust FG store stock from pending orders.
  • If there are finished goods in stock, those can be reduced from pending orders quantity.
  1. Adjust RM store stock in procurement.
  • If there are raw material in the stock already those can be adjusted in the procurement plan.
  1. Scan BOM of Sub Assemblies to Workout Consumption.
  • Bill of material of sub assemblies can be adjusted to compute the consumption in the procurement plan.

Production Plan Report

  • Production plan worksheet is all about production plan details and plan qty.
  • In final production plan, calculate final summation of plan qty,pending order qty and fg stock qty.
  • Product wise consumption will show how much consumption of the product in the production plan has been done .
  • Item wise consumption will show how much consumption of item in the production plan has been done.
  • Item wise consumption summary will show summarization of consumption of item has been done.
  • IIRS qty will show final consumption of item in the production plan with production process and rack info.

Procurement Plan Report

  • Procurement plan is all about procuremnet plan details of item.
  • For procurement plan, purchase indent, pending indent, inventory master, QA stock has to be updated.
  • Procuremnet plan consider computed qty,stock qty, pending indent qty,make indent qty of item with re order level qty.
  • Procuremnet based on max order will show max order level of item.

Steps in MRP

To understand MRP, create a model as follows:
  • Create a few items in the Inventory Master under various categories as follows:

Category : Finished Goods
- FG-01
- FG-02
Category : Raw Materials
- RM-01
- RM-02
- RM-03
- RM-04
- RM-05
Category : Finished Goods - Sub Assembly
- SA-01
- SA-02

1

Create BOM records in Bill Of Material Module for Finished Goods and Sub Assembly items, as shown in the following table.

2

BOM OF FG-01:
Input item Type Quantity
RM-01 RM 2
RM-02 RM 4
BOM OF SA-02 :
Input item Type Quantity
RM-05 RM 7
BOM OF SA-01 :
Input item Type Quantity
RM-04 RM 6
SA-02 SA 6
BOM OF FG-02 :
Input item Type Quantity
RM-02 RM 3
RM-03 RM 5
SA-01 SA 4
Create a new Production Plan as shown below.

4

Report production of FG to System via IIRS.

5

Generate Report

8

The report is generated in excel and you can see the following various sheet in it.

A.Production Plan.

B. Final Production Plan.

C. Product wise consumption.

D. item wise consumption.

E.Item wise consumption Summery.

F.IIRS Qty.

Production Plan Table :

So this is how Production Plan tables looks like

Plan No Period From Period To Product Id Product Name Product Qty
000019 19-Jul-21 19-Jul-21 007138 FG-01 50
000080 19-Jul-21 19-Jul-21 007139 FG-02 100

Item Wise Consumption Summery:

So this is how Item wise Consumption Summery looks like

Input Id Item Shortname Consumption
007144 SA-01 420
007146 SA-02 250
007156 RM-01 400
007157 RM-02 440
007158 RM-03 120

2.Production plan with adding pending order Quantity to plan Quantity.

Select this option if you want to add current pending order to your plan quantity.

we can perform following step

  • Enter data as per previous steps.
  • Click on check box for adding pending order Qty to plan Qty.
  • If any other checkbox in checked , uncheck it.

In sales order if production order is pending it will add to plan order.

Final production plan table :

So this is how Final production plan tables looks like

Product Id Product Name Input Plan Qty Pending Order Qty FG Stock Qty Final Plan Qty
