Set the delay to 30 days on the master plan.

Set Positive days to 30 on the coverage group.

Set the action message time fence to 30 days on the master plan.

On the warehouse's location profile

A company runs master planning every night. The planner notices that planned orders are being firmed too far into the future, causing unnecessary purchase orders.

A company has a standard coverage group for most items, but one specific item requires a different replenishment strategy: it should be ordered only when stock falls below a certain level, and demand should be considered for the next 60 days. What should you configure?

Modify the existing coverage group to use the min/max strategy and 60-day positive days.

Create a new coverage group with the min/max strategy and 60-day positive days, and assign it to the item.

Fabrikam Inc. has a coverage group for raw materials with negative days set to 5. A supplier shipment was delayed, and the system now shows a past-due demand for a raw material. The planner wants master planning to consider this past demand and generate a replenishment order. What should you verify or configure?

Set the negative days to 0 to ensure past demand is always considered.

Verify that the negative days setting is greater than the number of days the demand is past due.

Change the master plan's time fence to include the past-due date.

Increase the coverage period to include the past-due demand.
