This view is used by the production to control the scheduling of production and process orders. A production schedule determines how capacity requirements are calculated for all the materials during a scheduling run. Here, you can also activate batch management if material is to be handled in batches (certain quantities of material with slightly different characteristics). Batch management can be activated in several other views.
- Production schedule profile: define how the process will flow in PP or PP-PI, some additional controls about automatic goods receipt etc. Customized by your PP consultant.
- Under delivery tolerance: define allowed percentage of quantity to be under delivered.
- Over delivery tolerance: allowed percentage for quantity exceeding for production or process order. For over delivering, you can check the unlimited box – in that case we are allowing unlimited over delivery.
- Setup time: time needed to setup and teardown work center resources (lot size independent).
- Processing time: processing time for the base quantity.
- Base quantity: used for processing and in-house production time. In our case, processing time is the time needed to process 48 pieces of our material.
