Example of Backward Scheduling for In-House Production 

Example Data

Requirements date

25.6. (Friday)

Goods receipt processing time

2 days (workdays)

In-house production time for the material:

6 days (workdays)

Opening period

6 days (workdays)

Workdays = Monday to Friday, no bank holiday

  

Scheduling

  1. Requirements data minus goods receipt processing time = order finish date

    2. 25.6. (Friday) minus 2 workdays = 23.6. (Wednesday)

  2. Order finish date minus in-house production time = order start date

    3. 23.6. (Wednesday) minus 6 workdays = 15.6. (Tuesday)

  3. Order start date minus opening period = order opening date

15.6. (Tuesday) minus 6 workdays = 7.6. (Monday)
