Correct. Unless an item is MLI, the Plan Customer Orders flag (0,1,2,3,4, 5) will not cause the system to generate an MRP requirement. I have orders in the system that are not MLI items. MRP does not see these items. So, I'm informed (I still find it hard to believe I've not realized this sometime in the past 30 years) that if you want MRP to plan for customer orders entered into COM (as backlog), you must code the item MLI. To pass the requirement to MRP without having to review at MLI, is to use forecast code 0.

By all demands I mean inventory policies (safety stock, lot sizing, etc.) as well as all independent demands.

Is it a requirement that the item be flagged as MLI? I don't want to have to firm up MLI plan. I just want customer orders to generate MRP requirements. What should the settings be?
