What the use of reorder planning? How to create reorder planning?

By : Supriyo Sengupta

Reorder planning, when plant stock falls below reorder point procurement is triggered.   Planning can be done by manual or automatic.   We maintain reorder point in Material Master when warehouse stock reaches this level, MRP will trigger procurement for the same.

AND reorder point planning is used for consumption based planning.

For re-order point planning, you have to put some field in MRP1 View of the Materail Master.

MRP Type: VB (manual reorder point planning)
Reorder Point: for example 100 ( the level of stock at which u want to trigger replenishment)
Lot Size: HB (maximum replenishment) / or u can maintain EX / FX also. but it advisable to go with HB
Maximum Stock Level: for example 400 (as per ur requirement)

For re-order point planning, you can leave blank strategy.
