what is lead time, planning time, planning fence time ?

Answer Posted / girish pawar

Lead Time :: It is the total time required, by which
product is ready for use (manufacturing time +inspection +
handling.. etc)

Planning Time Fence: It is the time horizon which can
restrict the application area of the MRP. that is , there
will not be automatic changes to the Dates and quantities
within this Planning time fence ,during planning run.
It starts from current date to the number of days in future
specified as planning time fence as in work days .
Example >>> suppose , today is 13 January, and your
planning time fence is 5 days , then there will not be any
automatic changes during planning run between
13 Jan-to 18 January. And one day before the planning time
fence , that is on 17 january in our example ,the planned
orders are automatically get confirmed .
