Material Requirement Planning for SAP Business One ERP


 Are your wondering whether your manufacturing company require an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) System? Does your organization have one? Or are you confused of which ERP System would be a best fit for your production? In this blog let’s understand the term MRP in SAP Business One. 

MRP or the material requirement planning is a module in SAP Business One ERP software that allows manufacturing businesses to plan the requirements of the materials for manufacturing or the procurement process. This is entirely based on the company’s existing inventories, demands and planning. MRP is mostly used in the manufacturing companies.  

Based on the existing inventories, sales, orders, purchase and production orders MRP calculates gross requirements for the highest bill of materials whereas for the lowest BOM levels it carries down the net parent demands through the BOM.  

Challenges faced by the Material Requirement Planning: 

Quality of Data 

Implementation time 

Integration 

Training  

What is the work of Material Requirement Planning? 

An MRP system asks three important functions like what how and when:  

What is needed? 

How much quantity is needed? 

By when is it needed? 

What all raw materials and sub items are required in making a final manufacturing product is accelerated by the material requirement planning (MRP). Later assembling the raw materials depends on the demands and bill of materials (BOM). MRP asks the above questions in order to understand clearly about what all materials are needed, how much time it will take, what quantity is needed and when will the product be ready.  

Steps that are broken down in a Material Requirement Planning (MRP): 

To meet the user demands, requirement identification is done. 

Understanding inventory level and allocating resources accordingly. 

Allocating time for the production and scheduling the making process and labours. 

Giving recommendations based on the identified issues. 

Depending upon the quality of the data that an enterprise provides an MRP system can work whether best or moderate. The entered data must mandatorily be accurate and updated. 

Inputs such as demand, Bill of material, inventory visibility, and production schedule are looked onto by MRP.
