Creating MPS Receipts Manually

Use the Master Production Schedule form to add receipts to the master production schedule manually.

  1. Make sure the correct item is displayed in the Item field.
  2. Select Actions > New.
  3. In the Due Date field, enter the due date for the receipt.
  4. In the Original Qty field, enter the quantity for the receipt.
  5. This step is for APS only. Click the Get ATP/CTP button to check the viability of the demand against the APS plan. This process enters a Projected Date automatically. If you accept the Projected Date, it is also copied into the Due Date field.
  6. After entering the planned quantities, you can firm the receipt and convert it to either a job or production schedule (depending on the value in the Production Type field on the Items form , Planning tab).
