In MISys, the Material Requirements Plan serves as a bridge between the Master Production Schedule and real purchase orders and manufacturing orders.
An array of scheduling reports shows you which items need to be purchased, in what quantity, and when the orders must be placed so that the required material will arrive just in time. Production advice reports show similar information about items you manufacture internally.
When you are satisfied with any Master Production Schedule you have created, simply click the Create MRP button to instantly scan the schedule for any remaining shortages. Create the indicated purchase orders and manufacturing orders manually, or tell the program to create them automatically, saving you considerable time and effort.
