PRINT MASTER PRODUCTION SCHEDULE REPORT

Use this screen to print master production schedules for a group of parts, which can be selected in a variety of ways. This report displays inventory and time-phased supply and demand for each selected part for a specified MPS plan. The report includes inventory, supply, and demand information for each selected part, based on the project, netting group, and warehouse selection criteria.

Inventory balances in this report always reflect current balances, but future supply and demand records do not reflect modifications to orders, requisitions, and requirements made since the last time you ran the Update Master Production Schedules process or the Update Material Requirements Plan process for those parts. Run this report immediately after running the MPS or MRP process to ensure that future supply and demand records are accurate.

If you use multiple selection criteria, a part must meet all of the criteria to be included in the report.

Identification

Use the fields in this block to create a new parameter ID or to retrieve a previously saved parameter ID. A parameter ID represents a set of screen selection parameters. After you have saved a parameter ID and its related parameters, you can retrieve them using Query.

You can use the retrieved parameters to produce reports and run processes more efficiently and with greater consistency. The saved parameters are also useful and necessary when you want to run the process as part of a batch job. Many users save a unique set of parameters for each different way they run a report or process. When you select a previously saved parameter ID or parameter description, the associated saved screen selection parameters automatically display as selection defaults. The page setup and print options are also included in the saved parameter ID if there are any. You can change any of the associated selection defaults as necessary.

Parameter ID

Enter, or click to select, a parameter ID of up to 15 alphanumeric characters. Choose characters for your parameter ID that help identify the type of selections you made in the screen, such as PERIOD or QUARTERLY.

When you save your record, all the selections made in the screen are stored with the parameter ID. Later, you can retrieve the parameter using Query.

You can use the parameter to run the process more efficiently because you can select the parameter ID with its previously defined screen selections. After the default selections display in the screen, you can override the defaults.

Description

Enter, or click to select, a parameter description of up to 30 alphanumeric characters.
