Hello Experts,
I have a situation where Plant A (Purchasing Plant) is placing order for a material to Plant B (Supplying Plant) through ICPO (InterCompany Purchase Order).
The requirement for the material is put through PIR (Planned Independent Requirement) in plant A. The Planned delivery time in the material master in plant A is considered for calculating PR Release date after MRP.
This PR drives a Planned Order in plant B which calculates Order Start date through Lead Time Scheduling considering the PR release date from plant A as the Order finish date in plant B.
The issue with this is the material is ready in plant B much before it is required in plant A.
Example: -
Planned Delivery Time in Matl Master in Plant A - 60 days
Requirement date (thru PIR) in Plant A - 30/06/2014
After MRP, PR for the material is created in plant A with Rel Date 01/05/2014
In Plant B - Planned Order Finish date - 28/04/2014 (whereas i need the material in plant A on 30/06/14)
Planned order start date - 25/04/14
Thanks in Advance,
Deodatta
