This parameter determines if Material Requirements Planning (MRP) should force the generation of reorder suggestions by project code to cover requirements originating from a suggested Sales order (SOS). 

For every transaction, MRP compares the resulting stock level and the reorder lead time with actual requirements (orders). If the stock level on the date of the planning run (MRP processing (FUNMRPG), field Reference date) plus the reorder lead time is too low MRP can generate a suggestion. The date for the generated suggestion will be the date of the planning run.

'No' - The MRP process must not generate suggestions if the planning run establishes that an existing order covers safety stock for the date of the run plus the reorder lead time.

'Yes' - The MRP process must generate a suggestion by project code to cover requirements originating from a suggested Sales order (SOS).
