Purchase Requirements Report
The Purchase Requirements Report displays every
item from Items
for which an order should be placed to prevent the on hand quantity
from going below safety stock.
This report lists two things for each item: requirements
and replenishments.
- Requirements: may be customer orders or Allocated To Prod.
If the Plan
Materials at Operation Start field is cleared, this form displays
job material requirements based on the job's start date. If the
Plan Materials at Operation Start field is selected, the operation's
start date is used as the requirements date.
- Replenishments: may be purchase orders or work in process (the
item being manufactured). The report can be selected to show requirements,
replenishments, neither, or both.
There are different fields on the report depending
upon whether a CO, a job, a WIP, or a PO is being displayed.
The primary and secondary vendors also display.
An item displays on the report if the sum of its quantities on hand,
on order, and in process (On Hand, On Order, and Qty WIP fields) minus
its quantities allocated to both orders and jobs (Alloc Job and Alloc
Ord) is less than its safety stock quantity.
NOTES:
- The quantities on the report display in the unit of measure
used on the PO line/release.
- The report does not consider Planned POs or Firm Jobs.
- This report is not intended to match MRP or APS results,
the Time Phased Inventory results, or any other form or report.
It is a simple report designed to be used if you are not using
MRP or APS.
