Differences Between MRP and APS

The operation of MRP is often confused with that of the production planning (APS) module, although their functions differ significantly.
While APS focuses on generating a cost-optimized production schedule, MRP ensures that the necessary resources and materials are available.
In other words, the outcome of MRP is a suggested procurement and production list, which can be considered a rough-cut plan.

How MRP Works

The Material Requirements Planning (MRP) module essentially requires three inputs, which must come from the Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system.

Customer Demand

Which products are expected to be manufactured in a given period – i.e., the open customer orders and their quantities.

Technology

The Bill of Materials (BOM), which defines the technological steps of an item and its material requirements.

Inventory Information

Inventory records that include the current stock levels and the expected future quantities.
