Jacopo,
when I run MRP, no requirements are generated. I'll try to take a look at
the code to figure out why those requirements are not created. I will also
try to generate those requirements manually and approve them in order to
have a try on that functionality.
By the way, I've generated a new issue on JIRA and uploaded a patch to
findInventoryEventPlan.bsh.
Thanks
Marcelo

Ricardo, Marcelo,
from your recent posts I've noticed that you are interested in the OFBiz
manufacturing component and that is great.
I know that many of its features are not so easy to discover and setup and
I'd love to help you with more comments in this list, but unfortunately
I'm actually under the pressure of a huge workload... I hope to help more
in the next few weeks.
What Ricardo says is mostly correct: however in the very recent svn
version the 'ProductionRun proposed by the MRP process' has been removed
(odd name, I agree) and now the two relevant requirements types are:
"product" requirements: requirements for purchase orders
"internal" requirements: requirements for production runs
These requirements are the ones created by the MRP process but can also
manually created and edited.
So, if Marcelo wants to implement a simple way of creating many production
runs with one click (without configuring the system to run the MRP) he
could also create (SQL or text file import etc...) the records in the
Requirement entity (requirementTypeId = "INTERNAL_REQUIREMENT",
requirementStartDate, facilityID, productId, quantity,
statusId="REQ_CREATED") and then go to the Order->Requirements->Approve
requirements screen and bulk approve them (as suggested by Ricardo).
Hope this helps,
Jacopo
