Documentation

Use

If you set this indicator then when operations are dispatched the system searches for remaining available capacity in the whole of the planning period and not just in the planning direction that is defined in the strategy profile.

The system first searches for remaining available capacity in the planning direction specified. If it does not find any here then it searches in the opposite direction.

Dependencies

The indicator Insert operation should not be set. If it is set then the indicator Change planning direction is not taken into account and the system only searches for remaining available capacity in the direction specified in the strategy profile.
