MRP/VPi Question

We have a scenario with two warehouses:

 

P - Production which is a planning warehouse is where we typically generate
MOs and POs for components.

S - Shipping which is a where we place our customer orders (selling
warehouse), is not configured as a planning warehouse, and is where we place
our POs for purchased end items.  S is configured with P as the primary
planning warehouse.

 

If we configure S as a planning warehouse to allow us to use MRP/VPi to
trigger for purchased items that are not configured in P will we have any
issues with continuing to plan for the produced items in P?  We would rather
not create balance records in P for items that will never be used in our
production process but of course want to ensure that we aggregate demand for
manufactured items between our selling and production warehouse.

 

Hopefully the scenario is clear and I'm sure some of the experts here can
provide feedback on things too look for in testing,

Marc
