Question no 1664: Lot Sizing

In SAP PP ECC6.0, a planner wants to implement a fixed-lot sizing rule but wish the final lot calculation to be without remnant quantities,
for example:
current stock : 0
PIR in period n+1 : 500, two fixed lot size of 400
PIR in period n+2 : 500, one fixed lot size of 400
PIR in period n+3 : 500, final lot size of 300
total demand and supply is 1500, no remnant quantities.

Which of the following would you recommend ?

A)    switch to "EX" lot sizing rule.
B)    manually change the MRP calculated last lot size to 300.
C)    configure MRP run to ignore the final PIR, and manually create the PR.
D)    set the indicator "last lot exact" in the fixed lot sizing rule.
E)    use consumption based planning.

  1. The "Last lot exact" indicator is the configuration required so that there are no remnant stocks in the last lot when fulfilling the demands during an MRP run.
