Align Inventory with Demand and Optimize Vendor-Driven Purchasing.

A powerful tool to save time and to assist in Material Requirements Planning (MRP) within Business Central. Material Requirements Planning (MRP) is critical to every manufacturer and with the Enhanced Planning Worksheet from Insight Works you get a powerful tool that saves you time and gives you better insight into your resource requirements.

The Enhanced Planning Worksheet also provides alternate planning logic for distribution companies that are struggling with standard NAV or Business Central MRP.

  • Get instant access to key supply and demand insights: See sales demand, service orders, and net results across multiple locations in one view, helping planners make fast, informed decisions—including the ability to transfer inventory between sites instead of always manufacturing or buying new stock.
  • Plan more effectively at the vendor level: Purchasers can view real-time spend, check if minimum order or prepaid freight thresholds are met, and quickly generate purchase orders for specific vendors—all from within the worksheet.
  • Eliminate clutter from unnecessary reschedule and cancel messages in distribution planning: The Enhanced Planning Worksheet’s ‘Calculate Purchase Plan’ feature avoids the endless reschedule and cancel messages generated by standard MRP, making planning much cleaner, faster, and better suited for high-volume distribution environments.
  • Update planning parameters and review history on the fly: Change reorder points and minimum quantities without leaving the worksheet, and use built-in sales/purchase history charts to quickly verify suggested order amounts, saving planners hours every day.
