- The master planning engine in Dynamics 365 SCM processes tasks in a strict sequence, starting with recalculating BOM levels.
- MRP compiles existing supply and demand data, considering various factors like transfer orders, sales orders, and safety stock.
- MRP applies a pre-processing filter to run only on items with direct demand, skipping those without demand.
- Before kicking off, MRP handles background tasks like sorting reqtrans table and bundling records into task groups.
- MRP calculates the delta between existing demand and supply, known as the "coverage calculation," to create planned orders.
- Calculated delays are generated if supply won't meet demand in time, considering lead times and minimum order quantities.
- Action messages are generated to suggest improvements to existing or planned supply, requiring human input for execution.
- MRP updates logs and completes its process, leaving the interpretation and necessary actions to be decided by users.
