When am I allowed to do a zero hour confirmation on an operation?

When am I allowed to do a zero hour confirmation on an operation?

In execution week/day. I no longer want to do a planned activity. I do not want to update the standard task list created for this job. Can I simply confirm the operation with zero hours. I do not want to delete the operation as there are links to other operations, which will require a re-evaluation and linking and re-scheduling. It would be easier to just confirm the operation with zero hours? is this a standard practice? what are the limitations if this is done?

    Hi Seelan,

    CO11N allows operators to execute confirmation with yield 0. This is standard procedure.

    Best regards,

      Thanks Jessica, I agree with you.

      My business specialists are adamant that confirmations with yield 0 is fraud. I do not agree.

      Regards

    Hi Seelan,

    As Jessica said, you can confirm the operation with 0 qty. but let us know your requirement.

    If the operation is not that important you can use milestone confirmation. or final confiramation with 0 qty.

    Generally the operation is confirmed with 0 qty, to show the delay or break down into the process. In that case you just book your activities for delays/breakdown.

    regards,

    Solomon
