In this step, you define the planning time fence and the roll forward period.

  • Planning time fence

    You use the planning time fence to define a period during which the MRP list is to be protected from any automatic changes. In this period, no order proposals are automatically changed or created - depending on the fixing type maintained in the MRP type. Thus, the MRP controller can check the planned order within this period (dates and capacitites) before the planning result effects the lower BOM levels.

  • Roll forward period

    To automatically update the master plan, you can set the system so that firmed planned orders that were scheduled before the roll forward period can be deleted during the planning run. With this function, all planned orders, for which there are no longer any requirements, are deleted.

Note on roll forward period

In step "check MRP types", you can maintain the indicator "Delete out-of -date planned orders" which is used to set the system so that firmed order proposals, that lie beforethe roll forward period, are deleted in in the planning run. At the same time, new planned orders are created that are adjused to the current situation. (Or depending on the fixing type the old order proposals are displaced to the end of the planning time fence.)

Actions

  1. Define the planning time fence per plant and MRP group.
  2. Define the roll forward period.
