Documentation

Definition

Gives the maximum time that an order can remain in this buffer.

Use

The retention period of an order is usually independent from the takts of the production line. It is dependent on concrete situations in a specific location. This means you can specify a minimum and maximum retention period for an order.

Dependencies

During takt-based scheduling, the system takes into account the period between the minimum and maximum retention period.
