Define the MRP areas for subcontractors.

An MRP area represents an organizational unit for which you can perform material requirements planning separately. In this step, you can define the MRP areas for subcontractors. By using subcontracting MRP areas, youcan define single subcontractors that are planned separately during MRP planning.

There are three types of MRP areas:

  • Type 01 for Plant
You define this kind of MRP area in the Define MRP Areas for Plant/Storage Locations step.
  • Type 02 for Storage Locations
You define this kind of MRP area in the Define MRP Areas for Plant/Storage Locations step.
  • Type 03 for Subcontractors
You choose this type if you would like to define an MRP area for a subcontractor. You can only assign one subcontractor to an MRP area of the subcontractor type. You do not have to create a corresponding MRP area segment in the material master record of the components. The assignment happens implicitly based on the existence of the MRP area for the subcontractor.

If you do not create a corresponding MRP area segment in the material master record, the MRP covers all requirements in the subcontracting MRP area by stock transfer reservations from the plant MRP area using a lot-for-lot lot sizing procedure.

If more sophisticated planning is required for the subcontracting MRP area (for example, special requirements regarding lot-sizing or special procurement processes like third-party procurement), you need to create a corresponding MRP area segment in the material master record.

Planning File Entries:

  • When a new material master record is created for a component, the planning file entry is created automatically in the MRP area for the subcontractor.
  • If material master records already exist for the components, you need to start the Create Planning File Entries app so that the planning file entry can be created in the MRP area for the subcontractor.

To define a new subcontracting MRP area, proceed as follows:

  1. In the MRP area overview, choose New Entries.
  2. Enter a number and description for the MRP area. You can enter an alphanumeric number for the MRP area, but it must contain at least five characters.
  3. Enter the plant.
  4. Choose Subcontractor to assign the subcontracting vendor to the subcontracting MRP area.
  5. You assign a subcontractor to an MRP area by entering the supplier number in the Subcontr. field.
  6. Save the entries and choose Back.

New entries in the quality system (Q system) won’t be transported into the production system (P system). This means you have to enter your new entries manually in the P system.
