MRP Job Scheduling vs. Operations Scheduling

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 635

Hello Experts,

i have set up "Finite Capacity" on my Resources, Resource Groups and Planing Paramters

when running Master Planing, with the scheduling Method = "Job Scheduling", i get correct capacity reservation and delievery dates,

with scheduling Method = "Operations Scheduling" , reservation will not work, and delivery date suggested is beyond the time fence of finite capacity.

so my finite capacity is working for "Job Scheduling" but not "Operations Scheduling"

so i checked capacity on ressource Group level, there is nothing looking wrong to me, resource group capacity is the sum of all capacities of the resources.

what else could be the reason? 

has anyone experienced this before?

    If Finite capacity is applied to the operation scheduling, existing capacity reservations made on the resources are considered and that capacity is seen as unavailable. The production order is scheduled based on the availability of capacity on the resources neeWith finite scheduling your orders compete for capacity and the sort sequence is important.  I suggest read Evert's post on the subject https://community.dynamics.com/ax/b/msdynaxlessonslearned/posts/finite-capacity-scheduling-in-dynamics-ax-and-sorting

    Hi Ruben,

    Can you provide an example here? What exact date are you expecting here? Can you also provide information how you did setup the routes?
