Question

What is the difference between MRP input and output?

Answer 1

Answer:

MRP processing first determines gross material requirements, then subtracts out the inventory on hand and adds back in the safety stock in order to compute the net requirements. The main outputs from MRP include three primary reports and three secondary reports.

Answer 2

Explanation:

The basic MRP inputs are: (1) Master Production Schedule (MPS); (2) Bill of Material (BOM); and (3) Inventory Status (IS). The master production schedule is a time-phased plan that stipulates the completion dates for end-item production

Planned order schedule which is a plan of the quantity of each material to be ordered in each time period. The order may be purchase order on the suppliers or production orders for parts or sub-assemblies on production departments. b. Changes in planned orders (reschedule notices).
