Manufacturing Resource Planning (MRP II) is a computer based system that helps scheduling in real time Enterprise Requirements Planning (ERP) is an extension MRPII and includes DRP (with a bit of kms -josh) which determines the need to replenish finished product inventory at branch warehouses, when there are multiple warehouses in the network.
