Hi Abhijit,

You can maintain schedule date in Network activities. By default basic dates are activated for netowrk activities and you can do network scheduling using basic dates there by you can calculate Earliest and latest schedule dates for all activities.

For Forecast Dates :-

Select network --> Settings --> Set of dates --> Forecast Dates.

If you select Forecast dates, now you can enter Network forecast start date and finish date. Based on the scheduling type you selected, system calculates forecast schedule dates for all activities including service activity/External activity.

But forecast dates are not relevent for creating PRs and reservations in Network. these dates are just for information.

Hope this clears you....

Hi Abhijeet,

Yes, you can enter seprate forecast duration for service activities as like Internal activities.

go to cn25 transaction

ref "confirm" subscreen at bottom, there is field available for enter forecast date & duration

also same you can see in cj20n transaction

click on service activity

now see on right side, in dates tab, in that see "dates" subscreen, there is field available as forecast confirmation for date & duration.

HI

I have given forecast duration in service activity from CN25.But still that duration is not considered for forecasting schedule run. It is considering the planned duration of the service and scheduling the network and service activity.

Can anyone let me know why it is so.

Thanks in advance
