Summary :
In the SAP MRP context, the "Replenishment to maximum stock level" lot-sizing procedure for reorder point-driven materials is tackled without considering external demands. SAP Note highlights that the MRP generates an order proposal matching the difference between the replenishable maximum stock level and the sum of the current warehouse stock and already available fixed receipt elements. Introduction of MRP types 'V1' and 'V2' with Release 3.0D allows considering external requirements which, if exceeding current supplies, trigger an order proposal. The note explains various scenarios and formulae used for calculating the purchase order quantity when external requirements and various stock levels are factored in. No solution is provided, indicating the note mainly explains procedural handling within MRP.
