Dynamics AX 2012 - Master Planning  A guideline for the static and dynamic plan functionality All ERP systems have the concept of a “plan”, which is the foundation of the planning logic. All planned orders are tied to a specific plan. The reason is of course the need to do simulations. One plan is typically the “real” plan that runs the business.

They are called the static and the dynamic master plan.                         The thinking behind the idea of a dynamic plan The “two-plan – MRP” idea is designed for businesses that are Make-to-Order or Assembly-to-Order, where a new sales order  triggers lower level demand. If your business is 100% make-to-stock or repetitive manufact...
