Enter Rate by Period
Explanation
This activity is used to enter the rate by period. Rate by period can not
be defined for project MS parts and the Rate by Period tab will be disabled
if the part is connected to project PNG.
Prerequisites
To perform this activity, an MS level 1 part must have been entered.
System Effects
- The rate by period values will be taken into consideration when the
MS calculation is performed.
- The proposed MS supply will be generated based on the defined rate and
time unit, if the net requirement is equal to or greater than the defined
rate within the period's time unit.
- If the net requirement exceeds the defined rate within the period's
time unit, the system will continue backwards in time to see if previous
periods have free capacity until PTF is reached which is the rate by period’s
lower boundary.
