MRP for service activity?

[Makal]

Hi

Can MRP generate service PR for a service activity?

As per my knowledge it's not possible through MRP.

But my boss is insisting me to use MRP for service? Does it really make sense?

If yes, how can it be done?

Thanks

MRP is relavant only in the context of material components assigned to project network activities as stock items. It's strictly a tool used to make sure that your materials to be kept in stock are procured in a timely manner. I am not sure you can justify a service in the context of "material replenishment".

What is the business justification of an MRP run for a service?

Murali is correct

MRP is not for non stock items
