| Description | A description of the type. |
| Numbering Sequence | The numbering sequence used by the system to generate identifiers of MPS orders assigned to this type. |
| Dependent | A check box that indicates (if selected) that the MPS quantities are consumed by real production orders; it means that the MPS order will be reduced by actual production orders that are scheduled to be completed prior to the MPS planning date.
