This MRP Summary Inquiry (23.13) shows the requirements and order schedule for the standard connector (item 02003).

The requirement to buy in cartons of 1000 makes it more difficult to see the connections between the lower-level component and the higher-level demand.

This is one reason it is so important to get good planning data, plan well ahead of lead time requirements, and trust the system.

MRP Detail Inquiry (23.16) for item 02003 shows the higher-level work orders for the medical ultrasound assembly that are creating the demand for the connectors and the effect of the order multiple of 1000.
