Documentation

Definition

Time interval between the transfer of requirements from the consumer (demand source) to the supply source or the interval between the times of delivery by the supply source to the consumer.

Use

The pull interval is used as a buffer in the control cycle calculation. It increases the number of kanban containers in the control cycle.

Dependencies

  • The pull interval in hours/minutes takes priority over the pull interval in days, i.e. the system uses the pull interval in hours/minutes as soon as you specify this value, irrespective of what you have specified for the pull interval in days.
  • You can specify the pull interval in the calculation profile, in the PSA, and in control cycle maintenance. If you have specified the pull interval more than once, at different points, the system takes this interval into account with the following priorities:
    • 1: Control cycle maintenance
    • 2: PSA
    • 3: Calculation profile

Example

The person who replenishes the PSA arrives at 8 a.m. every day to pick up empty kanbans (kanban cards) and leave behind full ones. In this case, the pull interval amounts to 1 day.
