Material Requirements Planning in Microsoft Dynamics GP empowers you to adjust procurement and production with greater precision—a key advantage in rapidly changing markets. Visibility to material requirements and detailed vendor information, along with flexible planning and analysis capabilities, help ensure proactive planning, smart procurement decisions, and precise adjustments to production. You can make sure supplies flow in when and where they are needed—helping reduce stock outages, drive down inventory costs, and streamline the production process.

Manage production planning effectively
Visibility to forecasts as well as sales orders makes production planning more effective and allows for more detailed analysis of recommendations drawn from data. The result is better production planning and control. Site-specific inventory planning provides flexibility to manage each site.

Issue purchase orders easily and efficiently
Material Requirements Planning suggestions can be easily converted to purchase orders which helps ensure that your flow of materials synchronizes with production planning. By combining multiple requirements into a minimum number of orders, workflow is accelerated and simplified.

Access, monitor, and analyze critical data more effectively
Material Requirements Planning tracks up to 26 different material requirements categories and offers flexible order suggestions, including “What if” scenarios. A multi-level pegging tree improves supply chain visibility, while
manual plan generation and expanded querying processes improve planning and analysis.
