APO Sequencing - preventing Takt Scheduling from moving firmed orders?

[Former Member]

In the Sequencing transaction (/SAPAPO/SEQ1), selecting the takt scheduling pushbutton will move all planned orders up to the earliest available capacity. I would like to override the standard system logic, and prevent the system from moving any FIRMED orders forward. Has anybody implemented this sort of restriction?

Hi ,

Please refer to oss note 627377 Consulting note: Model Mix planning and Sequencing.

" MMP and Sequencing do not consider in a special way the input fixed and ATP checked orders. No checks are performed whether an order in input fixed or ATP-checked. MMP and sequencing consider such orders as usual orders in the planning processes."

Model mix planning always uses a strategy with forward infinite scheduling, no matter how you define your resources.
