Scheduling Direction in Manufacturing

Posted on by 3,482

Hi:

For the purpose of refreshing Released Production Orders, how do you have the module automatically select Forward Scheduling rather than having the end user manually change from "Backward" to "Forward"?

Thanks!

John

    @Kim: I was afraid of that.  We have it set purposely to Backward Flushing, as that is what would probably work best for them.

    Oh, well.  I may have to just let them manually change the scheduling direction in the production order, then.

    You solved the mystery, though!  So, thank you!

    Hi John

    As far as I know their is no way in the system to make that direction auto-select. The MRP always uses back scheduling. Hence, for manual production order this always set on back scheduling. For sure you can do development for that but you need to be really careful on that.

    My recommendation is that user set the Due Date to the date they want the product (like in the future) then they do not need to change the direction anymore since this is truly back planning  now.

    It comes from your Finished Item's Item card setting.

    I didnt find any option to achieve it by a setup. We have to do a customization.

       [EventSubscriber(ObjectType::Report, Report::"Refresh Production Order", 'OnAfterOnInit', '', false, false)]

       local procedure OnAfterOnInit(var Direction: Option; var CalcLines: Boolean; var CalcRoutings: Boolean; var CalcComponents: Boolean; var CreateInbRqst: Boolean);

       begin

           Direction := 0;

       end;
