Drive Requirements

If you are using MRP then you have the forecast and master schedule
options. Using the forecast, it will reduce the forecast as the sales
orders consume the forecast.

I have a question that maybe someone can shine some light on. We get
Sales Orders for parts throughout the year. We know how many each month
that we need to get made in order to meet yearly requirements. Once one
SO is completed for a said amount the customer sends us another one all
throughout the year. The customer will not give a total SO for the total
qty for the year. Now for the upcoming year, we would like to put
requirements into the system so that our production control person could
see the requirements to get those parts made. They would also see that
material requirement and based upon known lead time for material could
plan. My question is how do we input something into to the top level of
things and have the system generate down?

Thanks;
