Consumption indicator PIR HALB strategy 70

[Former Member]

Consumption in requirement class, is to define what kind of requirement will be consume PIR. (This indicator will be usefull if you set consumption in planning strategy) :

1. Consume planning with assembly

2. Consume planning w/o assembly

Actually, for planning strategy planning with final assembly (strategy 40) and planning t/o final assembly (strategy 50) consumption indicator will be set to 1 (consume only with customer requirement).

for strategy planning, planning at assembly level with final final assembly (strategy 70) and planning at assembly level w/0 final final assembly (strategy 74) consumption indicator will be set to 2 or 3 . why strategy 70 and 74 is set to 2 or 3, where will be consume by dependent requirement and reservation?

because with strategy 70 and 74, we plan not the finish good, but in semi finish good level.

so if we already plan in semi finish good, and there is requirement for semi finish to produce finish good, PIR that already create before (in semi finish level) must be consume with dependent req/reservation of finish good (to prevent duplicate production order in semifinish good).

But i dont know why PIR (strategy 40) for Fert Material do not consume PIR ( Strategy 70) Halb material ?

Please support me my issue.

Dear Sir,

PIR is Planned Independent Requirement. The name can show it is just PLAN. Only when MRP generates receipt elements for the PIR of header materials, the dependent requirement/reservation is generated, the PIR of sem-finished material can be consumed.
