Default Factory Calendar

[Former Member]

Hello Folks

If we do not use/attach a planning calendar(time streams) to the location master in SCM.

Which factory calendar (with holidays) will be considered during planning? Is there something like a global config for default factory calendar? Can that be changed?

Does it just consider only the time bucket profile if we do not attach a time stream to the location?

Slightly different "calendar" question...Can we have different shipping and receiving calendars? We would like to receive a truck in the lot 7 days a week, but not be able to ship unless resources are available. Can this be done?

yes. You should be able to. Go to location master (/sapapo/loc3) and you can assign shipping and receiving calendars.

I recommend using a time stream instead of direct factory calendar so that it allows more flexibility to users in APO.

Hi Rex,

If we do not use/attach a planning calendar(time streams) to the location master in SCM, then that location is an all day working location in your SCM sys. However if it is a plant, then you will have to assign a calendar in the resource.

If it is a DC then you should defineyour shipping calendar, to specify the starting time,. Good receiving time doesnt matter anything.

Thanks,
