8/4/2006 9:03:02 AM    Req. Qty. from Master plan
Hi, 
 
I got a weird behavior when running Master Sched. Here is my case: 
 
I run Job Scheduling. BOM w/ 5 components (all one for one). 
 
Basic Data: Nothing is reserved before the calc is run (period Coverage 
 
Code) + 0 on hand for all Parent and component. I placed a SO for 1 piece due 
 
in 20 days from now. The result is giving me exactly what i wanted. But i 
 
changed the SO date in 10 days from now. 
 
Result: The planned Purchase orders for the 5 components have a Req. Qty of 
 
2 instead of 1 just by changing SO date. There is no other requirement other 
 
than the SO. The period time fence is 30 days and coverage 365. My question 
 
is: How can MSched can give me a req. qty greater than my requirement?
