Definition

Specifies how the system handles schedule line quantities in the planning delivery schedule that fall on a holiday.

Use

When splitting weekly or monthly schedule lines from the forecast delivery schedule, the system assigns schedule lines to the planning delivery schedule according to the split share that you have assigned to weekdays. Sometimes these weekdays may be designated as holidays.

You set the holiday rule to specify how the system is to deal with schedule line split shares that coincide with holidays.

Procedure

  • Leave this field blank if you want to treat holidays as standard workdays.

    In this case, the system ignores holiday designations and assigns generated schedule lines as they are to the planning delivery schedule.

  • Enter 1 to shift quantities to the workday directly preceding the holiday, in the relevant week or month.

    In this case, the system shifts a schedule line to the first workday before the holiday, in the same week or month, even if you have not specified a split share for that day. If you have already assigned a split share to that day, the system adds this additional quantity to it.

    If there is no preceding workday, for example when a holiday falls on a Monday or first day of the month, the system shifts or adds the schedule line to the first workday after the holiday, in the relevant week or month.

    If the week or month does not have a workday, for example during a shut-down, the system ignores holiday designations and assigns generated schedule lines as they are to the planning delivery schedule.

  • Enter 2 to divide schedule line quantities among the remaining days with a split share, in the relevant week or month.

    In this case, the system divides the schedule line quantity among the other days, in the same week or month, to which a split share has been assigned.

    If all other days with split shares are designated as holidays, the system ignores these designations and assigns generated schedule lines as they are to the planning delivery schedule.

Schedule line dates are requested delivery dates. For this reason, the system checks each date against the ship-to party calendar to determine if the daily schedule line generated in the planning delivery schedule falls on a holiday. The system uses the calendar stored in the scheduling agreement item for the unloading point. There is a user exit that allows you to modify this calendar.

Note that the system does not take goods receiving hours for a particular customer into account when splitting schedule lines. You can, however, define a splitting rule that corresponds to these times.

Example

Split share: Mo = Wd = Fr = 1, Tu = Th = Sa = Su = 0

Schedule line for week 23.1998 (06/01 - 06/07) with 600 pieces

Split without holiday rule: the system splits the quantity into daily schedule lines for Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Split share sum = 3

Result without holiday rule: Schedule lines for days 06/01, 06/03, and 06/05 with 200 pieces each

06/01/1998 is a holiday

  1. Holiday rule 1 (shift)

    The system attempts to shift the schedule line for 06/01 to the first preceding workday in this same week. Since 06/01 is a Monday, there is no preceding workday. So the system shifts the schedule line to the first following workday, in this case Tuesday, 06/02.

    Result with holiday rule 1: Schedule lines for days 06/02, 06/03, and 06/05 with 200 pieces each
  2. Holiday rule 2 (divide)

    The system divides the schedule line quantity among the other days with a split share.

    Result with holiday rule 2: Schedule lines for days 06/03 and 06/05 with 300 pieces each
