Hi Allison,

Does your view includes forecasts in the past? MRP normally setup to ignore the forecast in the past in it's calculation, however, sometimes the planning workbench is not setup to hide those entries. If this is the issue, I suggest you to go to "setup -> manufacturing -> entry transactions planning workbench", on the entry that you are using, check the "Forecast Offset" checkbox under the display tab and see if the result makes more sense to you.
