Match resources across operations when job scheduling

(1) ShareShare

Posted on by
Hello,
 
I am trying to create a scenario where it is possible for me to align resources across 2 operations/resource groups.
 
My route consists of 2 operations "Cook" and "Wrap", each with it's own resource group as a resource requirement:
  • Operation 10 "Cook" with resource group "Cookers"
  • Operation 20 "Wrap" with resource group "Wrappers"
Cookers consists of 3 resources:
  • Cooker A
  • Cooker B
  • Cooker C
Wrappers also consists of 3 resources:
  • Wrapper A
  • Wrapper B
  • Wrapper C
I want to be able to schedule a batch order so that if it starts on Cooker B, it should also finish on Wrapper B (basically production line B from 3 lines: A, B and C)
I can achieve this with properties, but I want to use the capacity of the resources to decide which line to use.
What I don't want, is for Cooker A to be used together with Wrapper B. Basically no crossing between production lines due to product and physical limitations.
 
The product will be able to be made on all 3 lines, however I will have capabilities with priorities to aid in selection if all lines have free capacity.
It is not an option to merge the operations into one as that would take away a lot of flexibility.
 
Are there any way to do this with the proposed setup?
 
Thanks!
