MRP Horizontal Plan - Case Study & Technical Analysis

Executive Summary

The MRP Horizontal Plan is the classic “spreadsheet” view of the material plan. It displays supply, demand, and projected available balance (PAB) in time buckets (days, weeks, periods) across the horizon. It is the fundamental tool for planners to visualize the supply/demand balance for an item over time.

Business Challenge

Planners need to see the “story” of an item’s inventory. A simple list of orders isn’t enough; they need to see how the inventory level fluctuates.

Solution

The MRP Horizontal Plan provides a time-phased view of all planning elements.

Key Features:

Technical Architecture

The report mimics the “Horizontal Plan” form in the Planner’s Workbench.

Key Tables and Views

Core Logic

  1. Bucketing: The system aggregates individual supply/demand records into the defined time buckets.
  2. Calculation: It calculates the Projected Available Balance (PAB) for each bucket: Previous PAB + Supply - Demand.
  3. Presentation: Pivots the data so that time periods are columns and data types (Supply, Demand) are rows.

Business Impact

Oracle E-Business Suite Reporting Library

We provide an open source Oracle EBS SQLs as a part of operational and project implementation support toolkits for rapid Excel reports generation.

Blitz Report™ is based on Oracle EBS forms technology, and hence requires minimal training. There are no data or performance limitations since the output files are created directly from the database without going through intermediate file formats such as XML.

Blitz Report can be used as BI Publisher and Oracle Discoverer replacement tool. Standard Oracle BI Publisher and Discoverer reports can also be imported into Blitz Report for immediate output to Excel. Typically, reports can be created and version tracked within hours instead of days. The concurrent request output automatically opens upon completion without the need for re-formatting.

The Filters, Columns, Rows and Values fields are used to create and deliver the data in pivot table format with full drill down to details.

Blitz Report Pivots

The Excel template upload functionality in Blitz Report allows users to create their own layouts by uploading an Excel template with additional sheets and charts, automatically refreshed when the report runs again. This allows to create custom dashboards and more advanced visualizations of report data.

Blitz Report Dashboard

You can download and use Blitz Report free of charge for your first 30 reports.

The installation and implementation process usually takes less than 1 hour; you can refer to our installation and user guides for specific details.

If you would like to optimize your Oracle EBS implementation and or operational reporting you can visit www.enginatics.com to review great ideas and example usage in blog. Or why not try for yourself in our demo environment.
