Hi Raja,

Unlike PPDS planning (time-continuous planning), the least time bucket in SNP planning (bucket oriented planning) is a day, not seconds. Which is why the duration of individual activities in SNP PDS are planned in days only. Scheduling in SNP is based on the fixed duration of an activity and not based on order quantity or capacity load. If a plan contains 3 activities each with fixed duration of 1 day, then the SNP planned order will have duration of 3 days.

On the other hand in PPDS, the duration of an acitivity is calculated based on the resource load that generates the order quanitity, which means larger the qty to be produced, the longer the duration of the activity.

Hope this helps!
