Collective Purchase Requisitions are used to create multiple purchase requisitions at once. This is useful for creating multiple requisitions for the same item or for creating multiple requisitions for different items. MRP relevance is a setting that determines whether an item is included in the Material Requirements Planning (MRP) process. This setting can be used to exclude certain items from the MRP process.
How to use it: Change Documents can be created in the PM system by selecting the “Create Change Document” option from the menu. The user will then be prompted to enter the details of the change that is being made.
