Supplier Forecast

20200527 Supplier Forecasts route.png

This page provides visibility of forecasted Purchase Orders beyond the regular MRP planning timeline based on the demand set up in the system and the Supply Parameters defined at the item supplier warehouse level. Forecasted Purchase orders are calculated as part of the MRP run, provided there is a Forecasting Period greater than 0 set up in the item supplier warehouse table, that can be accessed through the Item Supplier table or MRP Supply Parameters.

Forecasted Purchase Orders are also known as planned POs or Soft POs, because they are not created yet in the system, but will be suggested as an action in the MRP in future MRP runs, when the lead time (also known as firm order period) is reached.
