In this step you define the parameters for scheduling process orders for each plant, order type and production scheduler. It comprises maintenance of

  • scheduling levels (detailed-, production-rate and rough-cut scheduling)
  • date adjustment when deadlines are exceeded
  • scheduling control for detailed scheduling
  • reduction

The parameters are described in more detail in what follows:

  • In detailed-, production-rate and rough-cut scheduling you specify for every scheduling level how production dates are determined
    • whether capacity requirements are generated
    • which master recipe forms the basis for scheduling
    • If a production version exists in the material master then the master recipe is selected using this version. If no version exists for a scheduling level then a master recipe is selected according to the selection ID that you have specified for this scheduling level.
  • In date adjustment you specify whether and how basic dates are adjusted to the production dates (for example, when deadlines are exceeded) and where the dates for the dependent requirements are meant to be.
  • In scheduling control for detailed scheduling you specify the control parameters for detailed scheduling, among others
    • scheduling type
    • Here you specify the scheduling direction and whether scheduling is to be to specific points in time. You can also specify that a scheduling run is only to be used to generate capacity requirements.
    • Start date in the past
    • Here you specify how many days an order may be in the past before today scheduling is automatically triggered.
    • Automatically calculate dates
    • Here you can specify whether scheduling is automatically executed on saving if changes relevant to scheduling have occurred.
    • automatically save log
    • Here you specify whether the log is automatically displayed after scheduling.
    • Required date of material
    • Here you specify where the required date of a component is to be in relation to the operation.
    • Schedule taking breaks into account
    • Here you specify that the times of a break are to be taken into account.
    • Dates to be specified
    • Here you specify that when creating or changing an order the user must enter the scheduled dates (production dates) instead of the basic dates.
    • Move order
    • Here you specify whether the order can be moved if partially-confirmed operations exist.
  • In reduction you specify
    • up to what maximum reduction level the reduction takes place
    • to what percent the floats before and after production in every reduction level are to be reduced.

Note

  • Note that scheduling is always carried out for all scheduling levels that you have maintained. This is very performance-intensive. Therefore it is to be recommended that you only maintain the relevant scheduling levels.
