You use MRP types for master production scheduling (MPS) to control which procedure is to be used for planning master schedule items.

The MRP type is assigned to the material in the material master record.

The following MRP type parameters are relevant in master production scheduling:

  • MRP procedure

    The MRP procedure determines which of the following planning types is to be used:

    • master production scheduling (MPS)
    • material requirements planning (MRP)
    • consumption-based planning

  • Firming type indicator

    You use this indicator to define how order proposals are to be treated for master schedule items if you work with a planning time fence, that is, the manner in which order proposals are firmed within the planning time fence and scheduled.

    You can use the planning time fence to exclude a particular planning interval from automatic planning. Depending on the firming type, only manual changes are made in this period. The system does not create any order proposals in this period.

  • Roll forward indicator

    To adapt the firmed master plan to a changed requirements situation, you can maintain an indicator for deleting obsolete planned orders.

    This indicator causes the system to delete firmed order proposals that lie before the so-called roll forward period in the planning run and to create new, scheduled planned orders (or, depending on the fixing type, to shift them to the end of the planning time fence).

    You can determine the roll forward period in the step entitled "Define planning time fence".

    For more information on this topic, please refer to the chapter entitled "Define planning time fence and roll forward period".

  • Plan regularly indicator

    This indicator determines that materials having this MRP type are to be included in planning at regular intervals, even if no change relevant to the planning run has been made.

    For materials that are to be planned regularly, you must also maintain the maximum interval at which the material is again to be included in planning. You do so via the MRP group.

    Please also refer to the chapter entitled "Define maximum MRP interval".

  • Forecast indicator

    You use this indicator to determine whether a forecast is to be carried out.

  • Forecast consumption indicator

    You use this indicator to define the consumption values that are to be used for the forecast.

  • MRP indicator of the forecast

    You use this indicator to determine the requirements values that are to be included in the planning run.

  • MRP list: extended header

    The screen sequence key controls the display of the extended header in analyses in requirements planning, that is, you use this key to determine which screens are displayed in the extended header and the sequence in which they appear.

    For more information on this topic, please refer to the chapter entitled "Screen sequence for extended header (MRP list + stock/reqmts list)"

Default settings

In the SAP system, MRP types for master production scheduling are preset with different fixing types.

Actions

  1. Check the MRP types that come with the SAP system.

    The MRP procedure for master production scheduling must be "M".

  2. If necessary, change the parameters.
  3. Create new MRP types to suit your requirements.
