MRP (Chapter 12)

Master production schedule: Master production schedule is a strategy for the production of
individual goods in any time span, e.g. production, personnel and inventory. The MPS converts
customer demand (sales orders, PIRs) into a construction plan through the use of scheduled
orders in a real part planning environment.
 Master schedule: One of three primary inputs in MRP; states which end items are
to be produced, when these are needed, and in what quantities.
 Cumulative lead time: The sum of the lead times that sequential phases of a
process require, from ordering of parts or raw materials to completion of final
assembly.

Inventory records in MRP: The inventory records file includes an analysis of how much
inventory is already accessible or accessible and thus can be excluded from the specifications of
products. The file of inventories is used to monitor the status of each object by time.
Bill of materials (BOM): An inventory of the raw materials, assembly, subassemblies, parts and
components, as well as the quantities of each, necessary to produce the product is a complete
materials fact sheet.
Bill of materials (BOM): One of the three primary inputs of MRP; a listing of all of the raw
materials, parts, subassemblies, and assemblies needed to produce one unit of a product.
Product structure tree: Visual depiction of the requirements in a bill of materials, where all
components are listed by levels.
Low-level coding: Restructuring the bill of materials so that multiple occurrences of a
component all coincide with the lowest level the component occurs

Assembly chart: Assembly chart is a model showing how pieces are put together, their
assembly order and their description of the object. This diagram is excellent for a full view of the
method. All major materials and parts, processes, control and procedures shall be included in the
assembly table.

Order processing: As the name suggests, order processing is the method for fulfilling the
customer order. The manufacturing stages of ordering include the collection, packaging and
delivery of the products to a carrier. The carrier then carries out the process of transportation of
the goods to the specified customers.

Order releasing: The issuing of an order is like an official document that accounts for the
release orders of the products ordered. The letter of distribution authorizes the distribution and
distribution of finished goods to customers.
