A logical representation of information for decision-making
Master Production Scheduling (MPS) is defined as an anticipated build schedule for manufacturing end items or product options by quantity per planning period. (http://www.eresourceerp.com/MPS-module-in-eresource-ERP.htm) It represents what the company plans to product, expressed in specific configurations, quantities and dates.
Sales Operations Planning (S&OP) process authorizes MPS module various products that should be translated into the MPS. Thus, MPS is a listing of the end items (products) or major subassemblies (standard modules) which are to be produced in known quantity and when they should be ready for ship meant or further value addition.
MPS is a logical representation of information for decision-making. It is what the firm or plant expects to product in the short run. Each individual MPS has a supporting BoM or Formulae defining the components needed to product the planned quantities of the end item. Thus, MPS becomes the inputs to MRP.

To serve as bases for planning material requirements, production of components, order priorities, and short-term capacity requirements. The function relates to the 'firm' period of the MPS, which is usually equal to the sum of production lead-times from release of purchase requisition to completion of MPS level items.
