Use

If you use the same sequence of events with the same offsets between events frequently, consider defining the sequence as a scheduling scenario in Customizing. You can then assign the scenario in Monitoring Dates and do not have to enter the events and the scheduling parameters manually.

Prerequisites

You must first define scheduling scenarios in Customizing (  Projects System Material Monitoring Dates Define Scheduling Scenarios ).

Activities

You assign the group a scheduling scenario in the group overview. The system then automatically copies the events and the scheduling parameters to the group.

You can generally change the scheduling parameters and add or remove events in the Events screen of the transaction. However if you set the Reference indicator for the event in the scheduling scenario, you cannot change the parameters later in the transaction.

You then enter a date to start scheduling from or reference a date from another object, and carry out scheduling as described in Executing Scheduling in Monitoring Dates .

In the Customizing transaction, you can also define how the system deals with dates that are referenced from other objects. You can specify that these dates cannot be changed in the application itself.
