Delete Planned Orders by Planner Code

Note

Planned Orders that have been firmed in the system will not be deleted when this utility is run.

When deleting Planned Orders by Planner Code, you are presented with the following options:

All Planner Codes: Select to delete Planned Orders for all Planner Codes.
Selected: Specify Planner Code whose Planned Orders you want to delete.
Pattern: Enter a Planner Code pattern to select a range of Planner Codes. Refine your search using Regular Expressions, as described in Section 1.2.9, “Topic: Pattern Matching with Regular Expressions”.

Delete Child Orders: Select to simultaneously delete child Orders for the parent Planned Order. Child Planned Orders having a clearly defined relationship to their parent Planned Order will be deleted.

Tip

In some cases, the "Delete Child Orders" option will not remove all the records you may assume it should. To ensure all child Orders are deleted after a parent Planned Order is deleted, re-run MRP by Planner Code. Doing so will delete any remaining orphan Orders.

MPS and MRP: Select to delete Planned Orders from both the MPS and MRP planning systems.
MPS: Select to delete Planned Orders from the MPS planning system only.
