Wait, CRP stands for Capacity Requirements Planning? I thought it was for 'Completely Random Processes'. No wonder I've been having such a hard time with this question!

Ah, I see what they're getting at. CRP is all about balancing supply and demand, so the inputs must be things like open orders, lead times, and routing information. I'm going with C - Routings and time standards.

Haha, 'None of these'? That's like saying CRP has no inputs at all. Come on, this is a certification exam, not a trick question. I'm going with B - Planned order releases and work center capacities. Sounds about right to me.

I agree, 'None of these' seems like a trick answer. I think B is the most logical choice.

Hmm, I'm a bit confused. Isn't CRP all about managing the resources needed to fulfill production orders? I think the answer has to be one of the first three options, but I'm not sure which one.

I'm pretty sure the correct answer is D. None of these. CRP stands for Capacity Requirements Planning, which is all about calculating the capacity needed to fulfill production orders. It wouldn't make sense for the inputs to be 'none of these'.
