Roundup [Peak Daily Demand *Roundup((Replenishment Interval + Float)/Standard Daily Production Hours) / QPC]

Where:

Peak Daily Demand 

FMRP Replenishment Interval (hrs) 

FMRP Float (hrs)

ERP Qty per Container

FMRP Peak Daily Demand over six month period

Note:  Will add +1 when internal delivery code is “Scan on Empty”

Peak Daily Demand is calculated over a system controllable planning horizon parameter using the Master Production Schedule data.  The default planning horizon is 84 weeks.

FMRP Replenishment Interval will be controlled by the business user using the material flow plan session.   See Defining Material Flow Plans.

FMRP Float defines the amount of inventory  (expressed in hours) that the replenishment interval is potentially extended due to internal process variation, delivery or signal frequency constraints, etc. This value will be controlled by the business user by using the material flow plan session. See Defining Material Flow Plans.
