Master Schedule Report

Use the Master Schedule Report to compare sales forecasts and actual sales orders to existing work orders and the master schedule to determine supply and demand.

Actual sales are compared to forecasted sales and the greater of the two is used to calculate sales demand. The master schedule is compared to actual work orders (from the Bills of Material/Kitting application) and the greater of the two is used to calculate total supply.

Only assembled items for which there is a master schedule or a sales forecast appear on the report. RP automatically subtracts any in use amounts from the On Hand quantity printed on the report for these items for you.

Keep in mind that sales forecast quantities for kits affect the master schedule for assembled items included in the kit; however, kits themselves do not have master schedules since kits are not stocked but are assembled at point of sale.
