Thank you for downloading this copy of Excel-Based MRP, I hope it will be of use to you.

This is a simple example of an MRP system, with a small amount of sample data, but it will also cater for many
thousands of records.
If you need assistance to adapt the system to your own manufacturing process, please do not hesitate to contact
me, Tony Rice at:
Production-Scheduling@Mweb.co.za
Or visit our web site:

Features
The Excel-Based MRP system has the following features:
- VBA free, no macros, it is all formulas and PivotTables, and nothing is hidden
- demand is generated by a make-to-inventory Finite Schedule, but may also be from another source
- a single level Bill of Material structure
- inventory of raw material and components is allocated to the earliest scheduled product first, and will be
dynamically re-allocated as the schedule changes
- a Purchase Action Report identifies purchase orders which must be placed or chased to meet the schedule
Inventory Rationing
The last 3 sheets of the system addresses a question that many manufacturers have:
"What products should I make with the inventory I have on hand right now?"
The system takes into account raw materials that are used by more than one product, and rations the inventory
across the products so as to even out the product inventory cover as much as possible.

Table of Links
This shows the worksheets that have links to other woksheets, either by having formulae
that refer to other worksheets, or by having a PivotTable based on a data base in another

Unlike formulas, PivotTables do not change automatically when the data is changed, they need to be refreshed.
You can refresh each PivotTable in turn by right clicking in it, and clicking on Refresh Data.
Alternatively you can click on the Refresh All icon which will refresh all the PivotTables in the workbook.
You will need to click it 3 times.
Put the Refresh All icon on you toolbar by right clicking on the toolbar, then Cutomise|Commands|Data

This example is based in a fictional business that makes and sells shampoo.
Product Range
We are a new business, and the product range is small. We have 2 types of shampoo, Apple
Blossom and Fragrant Lemon, and each comes in 3 sizes 100ml, 250ml and 500ml. Our
product range is:
The Process
We buy a base shampoo in bulk, pump it into a blending vessel, add either apple or lemon
essence to it, stir it, pump it into a holding vessel from where it is fed to the filling line where
the bottles are filled, labelled, shrink wrapped 6 together, packed into corrugated cartons,
and stacked on pallets.
Bill of Materials
There is one base shampoo, two fragrances, three bottle sizes and six labels. The 100ml
and 250ml bottles are fitted with a flip top cap, and the 500ml bottle has a screw cap. The
100ml bottles are packed 48 to a small carton, the 250ml is packed 48 in a large carton and
the 500ml uses the same carton but 24 to a carton. Two of the bottle labels are pasted on
the carton, one on each end.
Glue, shrink wrap and adhesive tape for the cartons are considered to be consumables, and
the pallets are hired from a national pallet pool. The minimum that a customer can buy is
one carton, so that is the SKU (stock keeping unit).
Capacities
Blending is quicker than filling, 100ml and 250ml bottles can be filled at 70 per minute, and
500ml bottles at 40 per minute. To change the line from one bottle size to another takes
time, but we shall ignore change over times in this example.

Item Master
The item master file contains details of both finished products and raw materials.
This data would typically be stored in a host system, and transferred to Excel via an ODBC link and MS Query.

Bill of Material
This is a typical structure of a single level bill of materials, describing the relationship between
products and components
Purchase Orders
This table lists the components that are on order from the suppliers, and the date they are due to
be delivered.
This schedule is contained in the MRP system, purely to generate a demand for materials.
Explanations of the fomulae, and how the system is constructed, is contained in Section 42 of the scheduling tutorial, downloadable from

"What products should I make with the inventory I have on hand right now?"
The system takes into account raw materials that are used by more than one product, and rations the
inventory across the products so as to even out the product inventory cover as much as possible.
You will see that On the Inventory Rationing Calculation sheet, there are 3 groups of columns:
- Bill of Materials
- First Pass Calculations
- Second Pass Calculations
The finished product inventory and forecast is used to calculate finished product inventory cover. In other
words, how many weeks the finished product inventory will last if sales are according to forecast.
Imagine that all the finished products in inventory are broken down to their component parts, and "pooled"
by being put back into the raw material warehouse, and added to the component inventory that has not
yet been used. The forecast usage of each component is then calculated from the sales forecast of the
products they are used on, times the quantity used in each case of product. From this, the average cover
of each component is calculated.
Finished products which have a cover above the average, then have their components and their forecast
eliminated from the calculation, and the average is re-calculated. The quantity of each product that can
be made is constrained by the component with the lowest average cover. Components are alloacted to
products on that basis, the new projected inventories of products and components are calculated, and the
Second Pass Calculations repeat the logic again to determinte what products could be made with the
components that are left over.
