Hello,

We have some printed items (raw material components used in production) and when they are revised a new item number is issues so item 100-01 may get a new revision, item 100-02.  This may not be the best practice because we will continue to use item 100-01 until its inventory is depleted and then will start using 100-02 instead.  

So the problem is that we want the Planning Worksheet to plan and suggest purchases as needed for 100-02 but consider that there is still existing stock of 100-01.

Any thoughts or suggestions?

This would have to be a customization. The other route is, assuming you know approximately how long existing inventory on item 100-01 will last, you could set an Ending date on it for the BOMs that its on and add the new item (100-02) with a Starting date after the Ending date of item 100-01 on the same BOM. I would assume the system would start using 100-02 once the Starting date is reached.

 

Would that work?
