MR-L  Print Planned Orders Report

Purpose of Program

Use this report to help track the relationships among planned orders -- including the requirements that generated them and the requirements they in turn generate.

Planned orders include planned work orders, which are given a sequential number beginning with the prefix "PL" followed by an up to five digit number, as well as planned purchase orders, which are identified with a BUY action message.

You can run the report for a single planned work order or for all planned work orders.  If you specify a single planned work order number, you can see all requirements it generates, or if you select the "reverse lookup" feature, it will show you the chain of requirements that generated the planned work order.  Thus you are able to see the chain of requirements above and below the planned work order.

General Program Operation

Enter a planned work order number.  The screen displays the current range of valid planned work order numbers (planned work order numbers are regenerated from scratch each time MR-F  Generate Material Requirements is run).  Leave the field blank if you want the report to list all planned orders.

If you specified a planned work order number, you can also answer Y or N to the Reverse Lookup? prompt.  The reverse lookup will show requirements above and below the planned work order.
