Still Struggling With Planning Worksheet

midnight

I have a purchased item that has two open sales orders for it for a total of 16 pieces. We have zero stock, and nothing on a purchase order. So basically we have to order some. So, on the SKU card for that location we have a Reordering Policy of Fixed Reorder Qty, safety stock of 10, Reorder Qty of 20. I run the planning worksheet for that item, for the proper location, and make sure the sales order dates are within the start and stop dates for the worksheet. I was expecting to see a requirement for 20 pieces on the worksheet. I get nothing. Very frustrating. Can somone point me in the right direction.....

Thanks

This might sound obvious, but make sure you have 20 in "reorder quantity" and not accidentally in "reorder point". Then I would test with lot-for-lot with no safety stock and see what happens.

Finally, check partnersource (or get your partner to) - there have been numerous hotfixes for planning issues, especially in NAV5 and 2009 (pre-SP1 mostly) including some specifically related to fixed reorder policy.

Mark, thanks for the info. I'll give it a try next week. I forgot to mention we are on 2009 SP1.
