PROJECT MATERIAL PLANNING<\/b><\/p>\n

Project Material Planning (JMP) in ProjectPro allows users to plan and manage procurement of items and resources for a given project.<\/p>\n

On the Project card make sure the Use Project Material Planning<\/b><\/strong> option is toggled \u201con\u201d.<\/p>\n

\"null\"<\/p>\n

1. Schedule JMP Requisition Worksheet for Projects<\/b><\/p>\n

Also review your Project Planning Lines to confirm you have budget or budget and billable lines entered. JMP will only work for Budget\/Both Budget and Billable lines with items and resources. <\/p>\n

\"null\"<\/p>\n

To begin the Project Material Planning, select Process from the ribbon and select Project Material Planning.<\/p>\n

\"null\"<\/p>\n

From this option the Project Material Planning (JMP) worksheet will open.<\/p>\n

\"null\"<\/p>\n

To populate planning lines from your project, select Actions → Functions → Copy Project Planning Lines.<\/p>\n

\"null\"<\/p>\n

After Clicking on the Copy Project planning Lines option, the system would ask for option, select Yes and all lines would be populated.<\/p>\n

\"null\"<\/p>\n

Notice at this time, your Resource and Item lines for Budget\/Both Budget and Billable planning lines have been populated. If needed you can add additional items and resources during this step.<\/p>\n

For each line, enter the appropriate \u201cDocument No.\u201d, \u201cDate Ordered By\u201d and \u201cVendor\u201d. These are mandatory fields. <\/p>\n

\"null\"<\/p>\n

Note:<\/u><\/b> If you have a vendor defined on the Item or Resource card, you will notice they are automatically populated for you in the Vendor field. If there are any changes to the vendor being used, please adjust them in this step.<\/p>\n

Note:<\/u><\/b> If you want to include any new changes in the Project Material Planning Worksheet, use \u201cUpdate Project Planning Lines\u201d option as below<\/p>\n

\"null\"<\/p>\n

Once you have completed all required fields on the worksheet. You can procure either Items, Resources, or both by selecting the Process tab from the ribbon. <\/p>\n

\"null\"<\/p>\n

1. Go to Home → Requisition Worksheet\/Requisition Worksheet by Doc No. → Select this option for procuring Items.<\/p>\n

a) Requisition Worksheet<\/u>\u2013 This option is used for selecting all items, regardless of Document No. and date mentioned on the JMP Worksheet i.e., this option would bring in all the lines at the Requisition worksheet of type Item.<\/p>\n

b) Requisition Worksheet by Doc No.<\/u>\u2013 This option is used when you have multiple document numbers on the JMP worksheet, and you would like to process each document number separately.<\/p>\n

2. Go to Home → Purchase Resources → Select the option for the procurement of Resources.<\/p>\n

Note:<\/b><\/u><\/i> Resources must be marked as \u201cpurchasable\u201d on the resource card, otherwise they will be excluded from the JMP process.<\/p>\n

Now depending on the project, you may need to follow both options outlined above. Please follow the steps for each option separately.<\/p>\n

2. Releasing Purchase of Items through Project Purchase Orders<\/b><\/p>\n

Go to Process → Requisition Worksheet: On Requisition Worksheet → Process → PP Calculate Plan.<\/p>\n

Note:<\/u><\/b> The only difference you will see between the Requisition Worksheet and Requisition Worksheet by Doc No. Is the Document No. Field filled in below the Name along with only the lines related to the Doc No. The process for procurement will be the same for either option.<\/p>\n

\"null\"<\/p>\n
