Production Planning & MRP

Production Planning

Replenishment-Based MO Creation

Products with route "Manufacture" and a reordering rule trigger MO creation:

1. Go to Inventory > Master Data > Reordering Rules.
2. Set route = Manufacture.
3. When stock drops below minimum, the replenishment engine creates an MO.

Planned Orders

Go to Manufacturing > Planning > Planned Orders. These are tentative MOs not yet confirmed. Review and confirm them in batch. Useful for medium-term capacity planning.

MRP (Material Requirements Planning)

For advanced planning:

1. Go to Manufacturing > Planning > MRP.
2. Click Run MRP.
3. Quickenerp analyzes:
• Current stock levels.
• Open sales orders.
• Forecasted demand.
• Reordering rules.
• BOM structure (explodes multi-level BOMs).
4. Generates proposed MOs and purchase orders.
5. Review and confirm the proposals.

Production Scheduling

The Gantt view in Manufacturing Orders shows scheduled MOs across work centers. Drag and drop to reschedule. Filter by work center, date, product.
