Baan/LN Tip of the Week: SIC Planning for MRP/MPS Planned Items
If you have a parts warehouse and prefer to use SIC for planning (re-order point) but need to use MRP/MPS planning for production, create a non-nettable warehouse for the parts warehouse and run the SIC plan against that warehouse.
When running the SIC plan, be sure to set the Order System to “MPS to MRP” for Baan IV and to “Planned to Planned” for Baan V and LN.
Using this method you keep the parts inventory out of the production planning and in the hands of the parts warehouse planner.
