MRP and make-to-order

  1. MTO must be marked as FIRM on the sales order release with a required date.
  2. REVISION: there either must be a valid REVISION (with an effective date in the past) that is approved, or the sales order must come from a quote with an “Engineered” flag turned on with a BOM.
  3. The part must have the MRP flag turned on in PartPlant (if it is a part on the fly, this does not apply).
  4. Most common mistake I have seen, and one that is hidden is that there might be a lower level Make Direct part (or phantom) that is not approved, or that is for a different SITE than the top MTO part.
    One quick way to test:
  5. MANUALLY create the job for the part, and manually set the demand link to the sales order.
  6. do a “Get Details” on the job… see what errors are thrown.
