[TEST CASE] Static lot sizing procedures the basics
Created by Former Member, last modified on Apr 11, 2016
Purpose
I would like to illustrate the difference between the simple static lotsizing procedures.
Overview
In the three sections I made simple examples for the procedures: exact lotsize, fixed lotsize and replenish up to maximum stock level.
<Exact lotsize>
The lotsizing procedure and the related settings can be maintained in the material master MRP1 tab.
First we choose the exact lotsize (lotforlot order quantity):
We have an independent requirement of 3:
After running MRP we can see that the order proposal is exactly the amount of the requirement:

(If we would have more independent requirements more lines then the sum of them would be the quantity of the generated planned order.)
<Fixed lotsize>
We set the fixed order quantity procedure in the material master and also maintain a fixed lotsize:
We have a new independent requirement in addition to our last planning run:
After running MRP:
It can be seen, if there is a requirement (shortage) the system generates a planned order with quantity 5.
<Replenish up to maximum stock level>
We set the lotsizing procedure to 'replenish the maximum stock level' and maintain the maximum stock level:

We have only the two independent requirements:
After running MRP we can see the following results:
The system generated a planned order of 100 as we did not have anything in stock.
What happens if we set up a maximum lot size of quantity 10 and run MRP again?

10 planned orders were generated as the requirement was 100.
