Production by Lot Size Using MPS 

Purpose

Grouping sales orders and planned independent requirements together into one lot

We describe the planning of a product for make-to-stock production. You then create two sales orders in the same week. In this process, you carry out requirements planning using master production scheduling (MPS) with capacity leveling. After the MRP has been completed, the three planned independent requirements are covered by one planned order (grouping lots into weekly quantities).
