| − | This page provides visibility of forecasted Purchase Orders beyond the regular [[MRP_EditAlert#Planning timeline|MRP planning timeline]] based on the demand set up in the system and the [[MRP_EditAlert# Supply Parameters|Supply Parameters]] defined at the item supplier warehouse level. Forecasted Purchase orders are calculated as part of the [[MRP_Index|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 [[ItemSupplier_Index|Item Supplier table]] or [[MRP_EditAlert# Supply Parameters|MRP Supply Parameters]].
