Settings in the PPM/PDS

You can use both a Production Process Model and a Production Data Structure for the bucket-oriented capacity check.

A resource for which you have maintained the parameter PP/DS Bucket Capacity can only be included in a bucket-oriented capacity check if you have assigned it as a primary resource in the mode of the activity in the production process model or production data structure, and you have set the Calendar Resource indicator. You use this indicator to define that the resource working times are used for the scheduling of the activity.

If the resource is used as a secondary resource and/or the Calendar Resource indicator is not set, the system schedules infinitely.

You can check the Production Process Model / Production Data Structure by carrying out a planning check from the PP/DS Bucket Capacity tab page, in resource maintenance. You can also carry out the same check using the model consistency check .
