Starting Lead Time Scheduling (SAP Library - Material Requirements Planning (PP-MRP))

Starting Lead Time Scheduling

Use

You can execute lead time scheduling during the planning run in addition to the calculation of basic dates, in order to determine the production dates for planned orders. In contrast to the calculation of basic dates, the system does not automatically execute lead time scheduling.

Prerequisites

See Calculating Production Dates (Lead Time Scheduling)

The system must be able to determine routing for at least one scheduling level. In addition, scheduling must be allowed for this scheduling level.

Procedure

In the initial screen of the planning run, set the scheduling indicator to 2 for lead time scheduling.

Result

Lead time scheduling is executed with times from routing.

You can check the result of the lead time scheduling in the planned order. You find a tab index with corresponding scheduling information there for every scheduling level, for which lead time scheduling has been executed.
