Hello Technetters,
In order to have traceability for RoHS vs. non RoHS parts, and to ensure proper storage and use, we are in the process of rethinking our current component handling system. My question is to everyone who has already done this, are you using any MRP software that's SPECIFICALLY tailored to such a application, or is everyone making changes to their existing MRP softwares to reflect the segregation as they deem fit according to their existing conditions?

We are currently facing issues where a particular part # has more than one vendor on the AVL, and only some vendors out of that list offer RoHS parts. How does receiving inspection know what part comes in the door? Our current system is buyer specific (buyer will have to physically add a note saying its RoHS compliant.....and we all know how that would be a nightmare) and will not flag automatically if a RoHS complaint part is ordered thu the AVL.


Any thoughts/suggestions will be welcome

Sincerely,
Amol Kane
