Workflow blueprint

ERP and MRP systems need clear authority between planning suggestions and released work

A planning authority map, not demand truth, valid product structure, inventory proof, supplier commitment, feasible schedule or posted finance.

Keep demand sources separate, freeze product definitions, qualify inventory and lead-time assumptions, then review proposed supply before operational release.

TL;DR — Keep demand sources separate, freeze product definitions, qualify inventory and lead-time assumptions, then review proposed supply before operational release.
1

Identify each demand source

Separate customer order, forecast, buffer and manual planning instruction with date and owner.

2

Freeze product and policy editions

Reference bill, effectivity, unit, order rule, lead-time source and replacement assumptions.

3

Calculate a reviewable proposal

Show gross requirement, stock claim, scheduled receipt, projected gap and suggested supply.

4

Release or reject by authority

Preserve planner change, purchase or production reference, later exception and finance acknowledgement.

Page-specific decision aid

A demand source, bill-of-material edition, inventory claim, lead-time assumption, order policy, planned supply, exception, release and finance handoff map

The map follows a configurable pump replenishment run across order demand, forecast, bill revision, stock snapshot and late supplier receipt. A suggested production order remains a proposal until an authorised planner releases the exact edition.

  • Forecast is not customer demand.
  • System stock is not physical availability.
  • A planned order is not supplier or factory commitment.
Scope first

What Codeblix would confirm before implementation

This page is an operational blueprint. The final workflow, screens, permissions and integrations depend on your current process and agreed implementation scope.

  • Every proposal retains input editions
  • Past-due and circular inputs stay visible
  • Release is an authorised event separate from calculation
  • Demand BOM effectivity inventory lead time supplier feasibility capacity cost valuation tax and accounting excluded
