change of MRP type from PD to VB lost all future scheduling agreements?

[Former Member]

Hi,

Curretly client is using MRP PD with forward scheduling of 120 days and total horizon of 240 days (it is scheduling 6 months back and 6 months forward from current date) so that Vendor will always have at least 6 months of forecast requirement and client wants to use Min/Max and Reorder point as the key fields for inventory? will this is possible by changing MRP type VB or V1 or R1?

I have a taken a test material and changed MRP to VB and it did not ran for forward dates as the stock was not below reoder point? what are the points i'm missing here?

Appreciates everyone time and help.

Thanks

It won't work

Reorder point will never work for this scenario becuse it is only checking the reorder level.
