Resolution

The replenishment lead time represents the total time required to procure or manufacture an item. It is primarily used by the availability check to calculate the material availability date.

For externally procured materials, the replenishment lead time is calculated as follows:

Replenishment Lead Time = Purchasing Processing Time + Planned Delivery Time + GR Processing Time

  • Purchasing Processing Time: can be found in configuration activity 102156 (Define Plant Parameters Overview), Planning Run section, default value of the External Procurement part.
  • Planned Delivery Time: can be found in the Change Material app, MRP 2 view.
  • GR Processing Time: can be found in the Change Material app, MRP 2 view.
