How to get fixed durations transferred into an APO-PPM

[Former Member]

Hi all,

I'm looking for the field that has to be maintained in ECC, so that I get a fixed duration CIF-fed into an APO-PPM.

Thanks in advance!

Hi y'all,

just in order to inform you about the solution.

I found ECC to understand process- and teardown-times as variable durations, whereas the setup-time is understood as a fixed time (could have thought about that pretty much obvious fact much earlier!)!

Anyway... problem solved!

@Vijay:

Thanks for your idea though!

Hi

I guess, Pls look into the Formula assigned too the operation

Especially the formula parameters - operation qty

Not sure, it works

Pls let me know

Hi Vijay,

first of all thanks for answering.

I do understand what you technically want to do with your suggestions (when the quantity has been erased from the formula, you receive a fixed time), but why should APO bother and enter a fixed time even though the same formula I used as before (incl. the quantity)?!?

I guess the whole story is triggered by a field somewhere.... but where?!?

Still in need of help... Bobby
