Forecast missing in MRP
07/30/15 at 09:01:12
 
When purchasing prints MRP in one company, forecasts aren't showing up but total forecasted number shows up on the inventory screen.  They made sure the option was Y to include forecasts but it won't show them.
 
Purchasing says there is only one forecast and none of the BOM items for it are showing a forecast.  Not sure if another forecast was entered if that would work or not.  So it's no specific part but only the BOM items for that forecast. Example:  when you enter a forecast, like "50 of ILT5000/U for 8/5 and 50 for 10/5" it then makes the report show a requirement for those dates for every item on that upper level item's BOM.  And NONE of those BOM items are showing a forecast.
 
They are pretty sure this did work at some point, and of course no one changed anything, so I am tasked with trying to figure out WHAT CHANGED???  I have no idea where to start looking..  HELP!
 
Thanks in advance,

Ummmm....anyone have any ideas hear?  We will try deleting and re-entering the forecast on the part, but just wondering what may be the real issue, if anything.
 
Kind regards,

Ok, so the production manager re-created the forecast and lo! He noticed that the setting for the item was "R" and not "F:.  Explains everything....it's working now.  "But nothing got changed, it was Evo!"  Uh huh..... Roll Eyes
