Potential future advantages for the military implementations of MRP Live include which of the following?

There are two correct answers.

More frequent MRP runs reducing knowledge time-gap across my military supply chain.

Better logic of defense-specific Supplier Determination.

Friendlier graphical environment for discovery and treatment of shortages.

Inclusion of previously non-existent logistic levels for supply planning (for example, a soldier’s ammunition pouches / PLCE).

Forwarding a request has which of the following effects?

There are two correct answers.

A new request is created, where the original supplier is the requester and the supplier’s supplier is the supplier of the new request.

A new request is created, where the original requester is the supplier and the supplier’s supplier is the requester.

The new request is connected to the original one and once the goods are received in the original supplier location, an outbound delivery is created to forward them to the original requester’s location.

Once the new request is created, the original request is fully deleted and is no longer in use.

The requesting unit is blocked from raising additional requests for the same material.

Which one of the following statements is true about Storage Locations assignment in Provision MRP Areas in Defense and Security?

Choose the correct answer.

Regardless the quantity of storage locations in a Provision MRP Area, only a whole Provisions MRP Area can be assigned to a Force Element.

A provisions MRP Area can only contain one storage location, which is therefore not relevant to direct assignment to a Force Element.

A Provisions MRP Area can contain multiple storage locations, but they cannot be assigned to a Force Element.

A provisions MRP Area can contain multiple storage locations; Force Elements can be assigned to storage locations from the MRP Area - one storage location to a Force Element.

A provisions MRP Area can contain multiple storage locations; Force Elements can be assigned to a storage location from the MRP Area - multiple storage locations to a Force Element.

Some of the preconditions for conducting a successful Initial Supply Run for a Force Element include which of the following?

There are five correct answers.

Assignment of a Stocks Storage Location / MRP Area to the Force Element.

Assignment of a Provisions Storage Location / MRP Area to the Force Element.

Maintaining Supply Relations for the relevant Classes of Supply.

Assignment of Equipment Package FMPOs to the Force Element.

Assignment of Provision Package FMPOs to the Force Element.

Not triggering an Initial Supply for the same assignment in the past.

Maintaining Material Master data on Plant and MRP Area level.

Which one of the following statements are true with regards to requisition priority determination in Defense and Security?

There are two correct answers.

The Requisition Priority is specified directly by the requester.

The requester can specify the Force Element Priority, but the Urgency is determined automatically.

The requester can specify Requisition Urgency, however the priority is determined automatically by the system disregarding the Urgency.

The requester can specify Requisition Urgency, and the priority will be deducted by both the Urgency and the Organizational Priority of the requesting Force Element.

When the requester does not or cannot specify a Requisition Urgency, it is defaulted to the least urgent value.

How does the Automated Supply of High-Priority Requirements help in typical military scenarios (peacetime and operations)?

There are two correct answers.

It removes the need to raise a request for missing provisions by a tactical unit in operation.

It saves time spent on the manual processing of a request and converting it into an order and delivery.

When properly configured, it can process the high-priority requirements automatically while the low priority ones still wait to be processed manually.

It shifts goods from other warehouses/ supply centers currently serving less prioritized units into depots in area of operations.

Our military separates the facilities for storage of spares (Class IX) for land-based weapon systems versus airborne ones. What could be the impact on Defense and Security implementation to map this separation?

Choose the correct answer.

Add the Aviation Spares as a separate External Material Group and map the relevant products to it. Create separate supply relationships for air versus ground spares.

There is no Defense and Security specific way to handle the situation. We propose an organizational change to merge the facilities.

FMPO for both will be separated. This is enough to trigger the requirement to the correct facility.

We create an overarching Equipment Package for all air spares and request them as a Package (handling unit).

Status Code:

There are two correct answers.

Can be entered by the processor of requisitions (for example, category manager) in response to the advice code.

Must be determined automatically.

Can be determined automatically in some cases, based on Advice Code configuration.

Is a copy of the Advice Code.

10.
