Requisition Worksheets - Blanket Purchase Order

trancu

Hello everyone,

I have a Blanket Purchase Order for ItemA.
If I calculate for all items on the Requisition Worksheets sometimes I get a line for ItemA.
If I start the function "Carry Out Action Message.." I will get an "standard" Order for this ItemA.

Is there any standard configuration on the Requisition Worksheet to get an Order for this ItemA created by the Blanket Purchase Order?

Thank you!

From "Trade" training manual: "The main reason for using a blanket order rather then a sales order is that quantities entered on a blanket order do not affect item availability and thus can be used as a worksheet for monitoring,forecasting, and planning purposes."

Order from Blanket order you could create only manualy. The row for item A which you get in the requisition worksheet have no relations to blanket order.

Blanket PO is different with blanket sales order. Blanket sales order and sales order qty of a certain item will appear in the requisition line of the planning worksheet after you calculate a regenerative plan but that won't be happened for blanket PO, the system will not consider the blanket PO, because the planning worksheet is a mean to calculate MPS and MRP where the result will be carried out to be a PO and a production order. So, we can use blanket PO as a purchase request before make PO. One of navision weakness is that there is no purchase request feature. So, I think there isn't a configuration to do what you want except you change the concept of requisition line either for planning worksheet and requisition worksheet.
