Hi All, We need to create “Production Forecast” for Item Variants. With the existing Production Forecast it is not possible to do so. Has anyone tried creating Production Forecast for Item Variants? Views, Comments, Workarounds, Solutions … etc… acceptable [:D] Regards, Srinivas Shetty
Hi Srinivas, You have to do a customization to this effect. You will need to insert a variant code field in the Production Forcast Entry, and validate it to the Variant Filter on the Item. But you must remember is the MPS engine may not support the variant code. More over the production BOMs themselves cannot be based on Variant Code.
It does, it goes off of the SKU, which is Item/Location/Variant combination.
Daniel, As far as I know, Creating the Production Forecast does not use SKUs, but if you are talking about the replanishment of that Item (considering Prod. Forecasts) using req. worksheet then it might use SKUs. Naveen Jain
I’m sorry, I rushed through this question and I thought you were talking about MRP, which does use SKU’s. You’re right, the forecast does not appear to have a variant code.
