ECC ASCP Plan recommending making an Item 8 months before demand due date
Hi ASCP experts,
We have situation where we have an ECC plan in ASCP and it is creating planned order in June'18 for safety stock demand from Feb'19. And planners don't want to make/procure for demand that is so far into the future. In the plan options only Resource constraints is selected as "Yes". And there is enough resource capacity to make the Item in December'18. So here are some of my questions:
- Should the planning engine not create the planned Order for Dec instead?
- Should the system not try to make the Item JIT rather than trying use the current capacity? What are the setting that guide this behavior?
