Hi Madhan,

If you use lead time scheduling, times maintained in schedule margin key, setup time, processing time, wait time, queue time, move time etc will be included.

Hope above clears your doubts.

Hi Madhan,

If you use lead time scheduling,

The standard values maintained in routing will be used to calculate the production start date and production finish date in the production order.

Order start date will be calculated by subtracting the float before production from production start date.

Order finish date will be calculated by adding the float after production to production finish date.

Hope this helps,

Hi,

the step is like this:

1. MRP is running calculate with scheduling margin key and time (in days) in work scheduling in MM work scheduling view

you update this via CA97

2. From the calculated basic finish date, MRP will minus float after prod to get schedule finish date

3. schedule finih date is minus routing to get the schedule start date

4. Schedule start minus float before to get basic start date (real one)

5. if basic start date calculated (from point 1) is earlier that start date (point 4), accoring to your config, this basic start date is adjusted to real basic start date (point 4)

so dun foreget to update material master via routing via CA97 to get the right result

i hope it helps.

Best regards,

Freddy Ha
