MRP during Biz Hours

Yahoo Archive

Hi Vic

We find that running a full regen during the day causes siginficant
slow down for the other users so usually run it during the early hours
of the morning on a schedule, If we have to run it during the day we
will run it over a lunch break.

only do a regen and then schedule it for the lunch hour.

I'm curious to know if you all run MRP during the day.



I have it scheduled and running nightly but oftentimes I'm requested by
our engineers to re-run during the day because they've made changes to a
BOM, SO or something.



I've ran it during the day before and it doesn't seem to degrade
responsiveness of the system. I don't see any reason preventing me from
running it whenever.



Is there anything I may not be thinking of in regards to running MRP
during normal business hours?



Thank you in advance.

If you only run a net change you should be fine. I would refrain from a full regen as it will consume a lot of processing power. With only a few changes a net change should not interfere with normal operation.

I'm curious to know if you all run MRP during the day.

I have it scheduled and running nightly but oftentimes I'm requested by
our engineers to re-run during the day because they've made changes to a
BOM, SO or something.

I've ran it during the day before and it doesn't seem to degrade
responsiveness of the system. I don't see any reason preventing me from
running it whenever.

Is there anything I may not be thinking of in regards to running MRP
during normal business hours?

Thank you in advance.

Vic,
We had the MRP lock up on us once when run during the day (I don't remember if the person ran a regen of full when it happened). I would suspect though that if parts are being received , injected into inventory, etc., that this would cause confusion on the results that ensue. Now, if we simply HAVE to run an MRP during the day we would only do a regen and then schedule it for the lunch hour.
