BPCS V6.1.

00 Overview

General Concepts
Concept #1
BPCS supports planning by facility or planning globally. If planning by
facility, then MPS and MRP are run by facility and only supply and demand
within that facility are considered. If planning globally, no facility is
required when running MPS and MRP and all supply and demand in the
entire database is considered.

Concept #2
BPCS supports maintaining planning information at four levels:
Program File Horizo Planning Mass Release
n Codes Warehouse
System Parameters (SYS800) ZPA Yes Limited Yes
Facility Master (SYS190) ZMF No No Yes
Item Master (INV100) IIM Yes All No
Item / Facility Planning CIC No All Yes
(MRP140)

Concept #3
MPS and MRP can be run in regeneration mode or net-change mode. If
run in regeneration mode, all items are planned. If run in net-change
mode, only items with net change flag = Y are planned.

Concept #4
The following planning exception messages in order of importance are
created during the planning process:
q Cancel
q Expedite
q De-Expedite
q Past Due
q Lead Time Violation
q Release
q Firm Up
q Under Minimum
q Over Maximum
