Material Lead-Time

[Former Member]

Dears,

My Case is as follows:

a material component is assigned to the activity in PS and the material takes 1 month for example to be delivered and it's entered in the lead time for the material  in MM .

I need to know if it's possible for this lead time to appear in the project builder or if I can use material motoring dates in PS for this and how  it can be set

Attaching a compnent in PS sets the requirements date and sends that to MRP.  MRP does the backward scheduling calculations and determines when the PO needs to be placed or the production order needs to start.

You can use the MRP transactions to monitor it or you can look into PROMAN (PS Procurement Manager) to geet a project oriented view into MRP.
