 Suboperation Dates

Suboperations are not divided into individual operation segments. Instead, they are assigned a start and a finish date calculated with reference to a specific reference date in the corresponding operation

To define the start and finish of a suboperation, you must go to the operation tab page Suboperation dates.

The following data is required to calculate dates for a suboperation:

  • A reference date (for example, the start date for setup or the finish date for the execution of the respective operation)

  • A time interval:

  • If the time interval is positive, the system schedules forwards starting from the reference date.

  • If the time interval is negative, the system schedules backwards starting from the reference date.

Note Note

If you have not maintained any scheduling data for a suboperation, the setup start date and the execution finish date of the respective operation are taken over into the suboperation.

End of the note.
