Production Order Starting Date/Ending Date Manual entry

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Community Member

Hi,

In a Production Order line, whenever either the Starting Date or Ending Date is entered, there's an automatic update on the other date, even including Due Date. Seems like a planner cannot decide his own dates when it comes to NAV Production Planning. Can somebody point to the documentation on how these dates are calculated? Is there a way to disable auto calculation of Starting Date and Ending Date and let the user freely enter his preferred dates?

If there's none, how do I disable this by code?

Thank you.

    Jorge,

    There is a quite a bit of logic built-in for calculating the starting date/time and ending date/time, if there are production order lines then it will use the planning level code to calculate the due date and update the starting date and ending date to the max of all the lines......

    I don't recommend commenting or removing the code, you can build some customization around it to meet your needs. You need to check the code under the validate of those fields on the table.
