SuiteApp/Bundle: Materials Requirement Planning
Scenario
After enabling the Materials Requirement Planning, the Auto Calculate Production Lead Time checkbox will now be available in the location level of the item record when the replenishment method is set to Materials Requirement Planning.
Solution
When marking the Auto-Calculate Production Lead Time checkbox on the Location level in the Item Record, it will calculate the Work Order Variable Lead Time column and Work Order Fixed Lead Time column at the locations set on the Manufacturing Routing.
The calculation of the following columns are dependent on the Work Calendar used on the Manufacturing Routing as well as the Setup Time and Run Rate on each Operations set on the Routing Steps.
The Work Order Variable Lead Time and Work Order Fixed Lead Time fields are calculated as follows.
Work Order Variable Lead Time = (Total run rate in all operations/ 60 Mins) ÷ hours per day (in the work calendar)
Work Order Fixed Lead Time = (Total setup time in all operations / 60 Mins) ÷ hours per day (in the work calendar)
