Requirements planning

Requirements planning is used in order to identify parts for which a shortage is expected. The system calculates order suggestions containing quantity and time/dates. If you want the results of your requirements planning to be reliable and the manufacturing work to be effective, there are certain prerequisites that must be fulfilled. These prerequisites actually relate to how you manage your system in general. It is not the choice of planning method that is most important when determining how well the requirement planning turns out, but instead it depends on how reliable and complete the information is in the different registers.
