Hi All,
We are the distributors of products and do not do any in-house production activity on the products we sell. We want to send the PReq to our vendors who supply the finished products based on the vendor capacity. Vendors have a certain capacity to produce a group of products and we do not want to send leveled PReqs to them not exceeding their capacity.
Can we use an approach to model this in SNP and how?
We are thinking of creating dummy resource in SNP at our plant location with capacity as vendor capacity and PPM created locally in SNP and assigned to products.
We can use capacity leveling to level the SNP planned orders. But the challenge is how do we use these leveled SNP planned orders to CIF to ECC and use as Preq to vendor?
Has anybody used a similar approach and the challenges they faced?
Please comment on this approach and valuable suggestions on how to approach this.
Regards,
Sarvesh
