Module
Material Planning
Material demand of the selected projects, with where each item will come from and the stage it is in today.
Demand by project
Select one or more projects; their material requests are gathered line by line in one list.
Supply source
Each line is marked as covered from stock or from a PO; lines covered from stock show as a warning in purchasing.
Stage bar
Request, purchasing, receiving, stock-in and job prep on every row; late items stand out.
Actual lead time
Lead time measured per material type is offered back to planning as a suggestion.
About Material Planning
How does it differ from Project Material Management?
Project Material Management records the material used on a project; Material Planning tracks where and when the demand will be covered.
Does it prevent ordering the same material twice?
Lines marked as covered from stock appear as a warning on the purchasing screen; the decision stays with purchasing.
