Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The planned order release is calculated by subtracting the projected on-hand inventory from the gross requirements for the week. For week 4, the gross requirements are 10,000 and the projected on-hand inventory is 2,000, so the planned order release is 8,000 (10,000-2,000).
