Sales Forecasting and MRP in Dynamics GP

This video shows a simple example of how to use Sales Forecasting and MRP.

I used Sales Forecasting to set up the demand in GP. The finished good item has estimated sales volume out 12 months into the future. I could have easily added other items, or changed the forecast bucket size and period. The sales forecast is set up to be included in the MRP calculation.

I ran the MRP regeneration and showed the suggested Manufacturing Orders and suggested Purchase Orders that are generated by the MRP process.
