Hello Nagnath,

Material Requirements Planning (MRP) enables you to plan material requirements for a manufacturing or procurement process.

MRP calculates gross requirements for the highest Bill of Materials level based on sales orders and independent demands. It calculates gross requirements at the lowest Bill of Materials levels by carrying down net parent demands through the Bill of Materials structure. The dependent levels might have their own independent demands, such as sales orders and forecasts.

The results of the MRP run are recommendations that fulfill gross requirements by taking into consideration the existing stock levels and existing purchase and production orders. The MRP run also takes into account defined planning rules for Order Multiple, Order Interval, and Minimum Order Quantity.

Phantom assemblies are assemblies that have their own product structure, but whose assembly does not actually physically exist. The components of the phantom assembly are incorporated directly in the superordinate product. The product structure of the superordinate product contains a reference to the phantom assembly.

I hope the information helps. To learn more about it in detail just google it . There are plenty of information available online.

Cheers
