BOM Requirements Report (MCR730)

This program allows the user of the FACTS system to print up to five time periods of bill of material quantity requirements based on planned production. The user prints a listing of what is required to produce and what components are needed based on all planned production that has been entered in the BOM Planned Production Entry program. At the end of the report, the user may remove the planned production information, convert it to production or leave requirements alone.

The user has the option to:

• Select the beginning and ending item to print.
  
• Select item description(s) to print.
  
• Select warehouse to print.
  
• Print components.
  
• Select the number of time groupings.
  
• Select the number of days to be used for automatic date increments.
  
• Select the dates for time groupings.
  

Report information includes the following:

• Bill of material items: Item number, description, on hand, on order and committed quantities, stocking unit of measure, required amount for each time period and total required. The total number of BOM items listed is also included.
  
• Component items: The same information as BOM item for each component. The total number of component items listed is also included.
