MRP Suggestions for Unfirm Releases

Some companies make BPMs that update OrderRel Firm flag based on a UD Field “Firm” in the OrderHed table… while this sounds easy, there is one complication. Simply updating the OrderRel table does NOT update the PartDtl table, which is what MRP uses to determine if it should create jobs. PartDtl also has a firm flag.
So… check that data table to make sure that OrderRel and PartDtl match.
