Evaluating MRP and Creating the Process Order 

Use

From the current stock/requirements list, the system converts a planned order into a process order. By creating the process order, the system generates an order for the manufacture of a material or a batch that includes all of the data relevant for production based on a master recipe. The following functions are carried out: determine master recipe (through the production version in the planned order), schedule process order, determine planned costs, create batch master record for the material to be produced, carry out batch determination for the components.
