MRP - Export Data
Currently, the export of the MRP suggested supply only includes the required by date for purchases, not the date on which the purchase order should be created.
Using the MRP export in a cashflow model to determine when a supplier needs to be paid, based on the order date, this is not possible since the export only showing us the required by date. We need to manually enter the lead times for when these orders should be placed and subsequently paid.
This is of course more for the planning and testing side of things. When we look at actuals, we would be using the POs we have already confirmed and authorized in the system.

I agree, definitely some optimization and efficiency gains here.
MRP exports for cash flow planning has been a requested feature by my clients, too. The export export needs data massage to get into a usable form. Have a cash flow export and/or report would be great.
Note: As I understand it, MRP data is not available via the Cin Core API, so creating your own report or using a tool like Easy Insight is not an option for this need.
Hi Stan, thanks for response! Glad to hear this would be a useful feature to your clients as well! Please do give the post an upvote so that we can get this feature built out!
