I’ve got a MRP question - I found out in a planning rule group you can only have one path to a destination location. Any ideas on how to get MRP to help if i need to supply inventory from two source locations into one destination location? For example - I have a plant and a off site storage that holds finished goods that need to be moved to a distribution center. Right now, when I select the distribution in both lines in my rule group, i get an error saying “this record already exists”

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

Based on the conversations, it seems that NetSuite's Material Requirements Planning (MRP) module is designed to handle a single flow from a source location to a destination location. However, there are a few potential workarounds you could consider: 1. Use Transfer Orders: You could use the Sales Order (SO) demands in the demand locations to generate planned Transfer Orders (TOs). These TOs would then be demands from the perspective of the centralized purchasing location, which could then be used for supply planning. 2. Use Reorder Point Method: If you set the Replenishment Method to Reorder Point, it will not be considered in MRP. This could potentially allow you to manage multiple source locations. 3. Use Workflows: You could potentially use a workflow to set a custom field when your status is changed. This could allow you to manage the flow of items from multiple source locations to a single destination location. Remember, these are just potential workarounds and may not work perfectly for your specific situation. You may need to experiment with these methods and adjust them to fit your needs. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
