    A vendor must be listed as the fixed source of supply in the source list for a material in order for that vendor to be listed by default on any MRP requisition for that material.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    If a vendor is listed as the fixed source of supply in the source list for a material, it means that this vendor is the preferred supplier for that material. Therefore, when creating an MRP requisition for that material, the system will automatically list this vendor as the default option. This ensures that the preferred vendor is always considered first when generating purchase requisitions.

    You do not need to set the Initialization flag in the Forecasting view to 'X' each time a new Forecast is executed.

    Explanation
    In the Forecasting view, the Initialization flag needs to be set to 'X' each time a new Forecast is executed. This flag is used to indicate whether the forecast should be initialized or not. By setting it to 'X', the system will perform an initialization process before executing the forecast, ensuring accurate results.

The item overview section provides a summary of the items being ordered, including the quantity, unit price, and total amount.

By using the WMA model, the forecast will be more accurate and responsive to changes in demand patterns, leading to better inventory management and stock control.
