Explanation

This activity is used to reschedule a shop order material line and optionally the shop order operation requiring the material using drag-and-drop functionality from a visualization chart.

System Effects

• The shop order material line will receive a new Required Date according to the value provided in the dialog box.
• If the check box Reschedule Shop Order Operation(s) is not selected and the new Required Date is later than the Finish Date of the operation which to the material line is connected, the operation connection will be removed.
• If the check box Reschedule Shop Order Operation(s) is not selected, the new Required Date may not be later than the Finish Date of the shop order.

If the Reschedule Shop Order Operation(s) check box is selected:

• Schedule Direction for the operation which to the material line is connected will be set to Forward Scheduling and the operation will be rescheduled to start the first available work date/time from the given value. If the material line is not connected to any operation the first operation will be considered.
• Operations parallel to, and succeeding the rescheduled operation will also be set to Forward Scheduling and rescheduled.

If the new Required Date is later than the original date, the Compress Operations check box can be selected. If selected operations preceding the rescheduled operation will be set to Backwards Scheduling and rescheduled with a Finish Date adjacent to the rescheduled operations new Start Date.

• If the site is CBS server enabled, it is only possible to change the Required Date of the material. Rescheduling of operations ( with or without compress operations ) is not possible as scheduling individual operations will be handled by CBS server logic and date required is not an input for operation scheduling. For CBS , Material cumulative lead time, scheduling capacity setting in the inventory part , supplies and demand situations for the part will determine the material constraint when scheduling.
