Documentation

Definition

Date on which the required amount of material is available or the requirements date for the material. The operations in the task list are scheduled backwards from this date.

Dependencies

If you have entered an order finish date and want to schedule forwards, the system tries to schedule the operations up to the order finish date. If this is not possible, the system carries out step by step reductions.

The order finish date has the time unit "day". However, production requires a completion date which includes the time of day for scheduling. The time at which the order is scheduled to finish must be before the order finish date at 00:00 hours so that the material to be produced is available on that order finish date.

An exception to this rule occurs when there is an in-house production time of 0 days maintained in the material master record. In this case, you can assume that the material can be produced in one workday. Here the time at which the order is scheduled to finish is before the basic finish date at 24:00 hours.

Example

The last operation was completed on Thursday at 17:00 hours. There is no float after production maintained in the material master.

  • If the in-house production time for a material is greater than 0 days in the material master, the order finish date is Friday.
  • If the in-house production time for a material is 0 days in the material master, the order finish date is Thursday.
