Hi
Pranav,
As I mentioned earlier, I don’t have practical experience with modifying this parameter, so my response and example will be based solely on theoretical information from the learn.microsoft.com portal.
Following this link:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/supply-chain/master-planning/planning-optimization/coverage-time-fence you can find such information:
Coverage time fences affect only input data for master planning. If delays occur, the resulting planned orders might have a date that is after today's date plus the coverage time fence.
Thus, the coverage time fence defines the maximum possible date for a planned order. In other words, if due to delays, the planned order date exceeds the current date by more than 100 days, such a planned order will not be created.
For example:
Today is January 27, 2025.
The delivery was originally scheduled to arrive on March 30, 2025.
A planned order had a date of March 31, 2025, because it is 64 days from the current date. This falls within the 100-day range set in the parameter.
As a result of the delay, the delivery date changed to May 20, 2025.
That means that the planned order could not be ready earlier than May 21, 2025, which is 114 days from the current date (January 27, 2025). Since the number of days exceeds the set limit (100), such a planned order will not be created.
