Checking the Revision Level in MRP (SAP Library - Material Requirements Planning (PP-MRP))

Checking the Revision Level in MRP

Use

The system determines which revision level is to be used for production or purchasing for each procurement proposal during the planning run.

For materials produced in-house, the revision level is determined via the explosion date of the planned order. In BOM explosion, the dependent requirements date is used for determining the revision level for the assemblies and components.

For materials procured externally, the revision level is determined via the release date of the purchase requisition or the order start date of the planned order.

The revision level is displayed in a separate column in the MRP list as well as in the stock/requirements list.
