Hi Raphaël,
i already had a look at MPS, but with that you have to enter all the
procurements by hands.
Most of our customers have thousands of products.
Impossibile the check them out by hands.

Manufacturing companies usually send to the supplier a purchase order
with a long list of order lines.
Each line usually have an expected date attribute.
With that attribute, the company says to the supplier <<Hey, for this
date i will need these products and for that date i will need those
other products>>

To compute this schedule, they need openerp to be able to understand if
on that particular date we will have enough components to run the
production order. if not openerp has to create a procurement order for
THAT date and not before.

If, in the meantime, someone creates a new procurement order by date to
satisfy the need above, openerp must cancel that procurement order.

This is how manufacturing companies all over the world work
