SNP Planned order start and end dates are not calculated correctly

[Former Member]

Hello SNP Guru's

The SNP planned orders generated after the Heuristics run, have a start and end date based on the Activity Duration (Fixed), while the resource consumption is based on the Bucket Consumption (Variable), which is correct.

The Activity Duration (Fixed) is based on the BOM Base Quantity. So if the Activity Duration = 1 day, and if the order quantity is more than a day, the start and end dates, still shows as 1 day. So no matter what is the order quantity, the start and end dates is always = 1 day.

Does anyone have any experience in implementing any code to change the start and end dates on SNP Planned Order?

Seems like it should work as standard.

Am i missing something?

Thanks,

Mangesh

Dear Mangesh,

SNP is a infinite planning tool. If you have defined fixed duration to be 1 DAY in the activity, no matter how many quantity you input for your planned order, the order will last for one day. If the resourced is overloaded, you then run capacity levelling to

banlance the capacity. What your expected beahavior happens in PPDS planning.
