Sage X3

Hello, Is there a way to setup MRP to create a planned purchase request as opposed to creating a suggestion? I know the suggestions can be converted to Purchase Requests but or team is looking to remove a step in the process if possible. Any guidance…

Hello All, Can someone explain the reason for these two fields listed in the subject in "Products" screen. I've read the basic break down's from "F1" help, but we are looking for more real world examples and purposes of these two fields. Could either…

We have been running all Finished Good products under MRP for a while now. We are now trying to set these up under MPS so we can take advantage of some additional features. I have taken a single FG item and marked it as MPS and then changed my Planning…

We have a case where we want to allocate material to a customer. We set the customer allocation but it appears that when we have a Sales Order for the same customer MRP doesn't net the sales order demand from the customer allocation. It is creating a…

We have requirement that customer is having multiple BOMs for the same product during the year. When running MRP will Sage X3 be able to pick the right BOM's based and provide the requirements considering the Start Dates and End dates. Is there any possibility…

MRP suggestions don't seem to incorporate Purchase LT as specified on Product-site records, and Run Time as specified in the corresponding Routing. Is there an overview or something that describes what affects this? It feels like things have been set…

Currently when product is received into X3 to any location it is tagged with a receipt date. This is the date that travels with the product and drives the FIFO order for each product. Is there a way to manually FIFO inventory to give more versatility…

Hi All, I am facing this issue very often as I was unable to click 'Record' to print Payment voucher for one of the payment entry type and sometimes, with few transactions under this payment type as well. I am using V11 of Sage X3. I tried to set…

In requirements parameters, replanning rules, if I set the type WOF to simulation, I don't get any WOS's. When I set the method to Messages only, I get WOS's but the message is to Cancel. Also it seems to be planning for way too much expected stock. I…

I'm trying to understand the relationship between these two fields, the MRP structure and the Work Center Structure. The INFCAPSTR dates are never on Fridays, but the OPEEND has some Fridays. the MRP structure has 10 hours on Fridays, but the work…

I have a planned WO that was manually created on 6/3 that was manually created stock went below the safety stock limit on 5/15 my MRP replanning messages have a 120 backword and foreward lead time, and under "replan dates" it's set to "Early" …

Has anyone used this field before? I tried to test it and I never saw the lead time reflected on my component's MRP suggestion.

MRP Settings have the load calculation at 26 weeks. The production lead time is set to Routing/Product Lead time From what I can see in the load graphs, I only see load for 6 months. and from the MRP results, I can see that the routing is used for…

Does anyone have a better definition of the demand horizon than what has been in the training material ? Also does anyone know what the affects of having the demand horizon set to 0 means for a manufactured good? Thank you!

I have entered a demand forecast and a purchase plan for 6 months out (essentially weekly purchase requests for the next 6 months). What configurations to MRP should I make in order to have the system not modify any of these purchase requests, but to…

What does this message mean when I see it in my MRP log? I believe it started after I changed some work center structures to be different than others. The raw WIP work centers are at a 15 hour capacity structure, and the finished goods work centers…

Looking through the training material for MRP, most of the suggestions have the daily bucket set to 30. What are the consequences of having it set to 0 ?

When I look farther out in my projected stock inquiry, the WOS suggestions do not seem to be suggesting to build the stock to safety stock, but just a reflection of the demand. What settings influence this behavior ? How can I ensure my stock level is…

In the product-site record there is a demand horizon. From my understanding, anything before that time MRP considers Firm SOs and anything after is Firm SOs and Forecast Demand. For me this makes sense for the products that are manufactured What…

Hi guys, Is there a way to control if SO are not considered in MRP Suggestions when the credit limit of the sales order is not OK? We don't want the POS to be generated if the Sales Order is not Credit OK. Thanks.

The fourth of July is listed in the unavailable section, but MRP still suggested work orders with an end date of the 4th. What could cause that ?

Hi all Just to share this parameter "Ignore previous lost sales" functionality which is useful to exclude expired forecasts. This is found in the criteria button under Stock Avaiability, as well as most of the planning screens, such as the Planning…

When running mrp processcing. If I have a subcontractor order of which requires a component to be delivered to the subcontractor and I create the delivery but dont validate it because lets say the carrier has not picked it up yet and I want to wait for…

I feel like this is a stupid question. What does it mean when the MRP message says "Advance"? I believe it means "move the order date CLOSER- you need this SOONER" but I just want to be sure.
