Edit Schedule Attributes
Explanation
This activity is used to edit the schedule attributes for a part in a production line.
Schedule attributes can be edited on the Schedule Attributes tab on the
Production Line page or in the Production Lines section on the
Production Line by Part page.
The attribute fields you can edit are:
- Schedule Percentage
The percentage of the part that should be manufactured in the
selected production line. This value can not be less than zero. This value is used to allocate the demand for the
part to production schedules when a single part is produced in more than one line. Master scheduling (MS) and MRP
consider this percentage when generating production schedules.
- Horizon
The schedule horizon that should be used for the part in this line. This controls
schedule generation and management. Use the list of values (LOV) picker to select from available schedule
horizons.
- Schedule Fraction
Defines whether to allow the scheduled quantity to be divided. The
value is either set to Fraction Not Allowed or Fraction Qty Allowed.
- Receipt in Background
Specifies how the receipt should behave. If this setting is
enabled, the receipt will be performed in the background.
Prerequisites
This activity has the following prerequisites:
- A part has been connected to a production line.
System Effects
As a result of this activity:
- The schedule part attributes for a part in a production line is changed. The attributes are considered by
master scheduling (MS) and material requirements planning (MRP) when generating production schedules.
- When production schedules are created by master scheduling or MRP, the demand quantities are divided by the
percentage specified in the Schedule Percentage field into the different line schedules. If
the sum of the schedule percentage for a part exceeds 100%, you receive a warning, but the transaction will
complete. A part's primary line is the production line having the greatest schedule percentage.
