Record 10 1990-06-28

English

Subject field(s)
  • Inventory and Material Management
DEF

The function of determining the needs to replenish inventory at branch warehouses.

OBS

Frequently, a time-phased order point approach is used where the planned orders at the branch warehouse level are "exploded" via MRP logic to become gross requirements on the supplying source. In the case of multi-level distribution networks, this explosion process can continue down through the various levels of master warehouse, factory warehouse, etc., and become input to the master production schedule. Demand on the supplying source(s) is recognized as dependent, and standard MRP logic applies.

OBS

Standardized by CGSB.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Gestion des stocks et du matériel
DEF

Fonction qui consiste à déterminer les besoins de réapprovisionnement des entrepôts de succursale.

OBS

On procède souvent par point de commande cadencé lorsque les commandes planifiées au niveau des entrepôts de succursale sont "explosées" par l'entremise de la logique de la PRF de manière à devenir des besoins bruts pour la source d'approvisionnement. Dans le cas des réseaux de distribution à paliers multiples, cette explosion peut se faire sentir aux divers paliers de l'entrepôt principal, l'entrepôt d'usine, etc., et constituer une donnée d'entrée du plan directeur de production. Le besoin exercé sur les sources d'approvisionnement est considéré comme étant dépendant et la logique de la PRF standard s'applique.

OBS

Normalisé par l'ONGC.
