Abstract

The objective of the master planning, as is well known, is transformation of existing demand forecasts and orders of an enterprise into a specific plan of action for certain near period. The master plan may be drawn up directly according to the forecasts and orders, and can be elaborated based on the existing sales and operations plan, and the latter is preferred. The master plan unlike the sales and operations plan is much more detailed, i.e. aggregation of individual products here is the exception rather than the rule.
