| Add Production Order to Order Block (tisfc0252m000) |  |
| Use this session to add a production order to a suitable order block or create a new order block for this production order. If you enter values in the fields of this session, and click Add Order to Production Order Group, ERP LN performs the following actions: Checks whether Order Block Planning (tisfc0151m000) session already has records for the specified machine and the specified start date of order-block period. If no such order blocks exist, this session cannot add production orders to order blocks. Determines which of the production order's operations is executed on the machine that you specified. If multiple operations are executed on the same machine, ERP LN selects the first of these operations. For each of the setup classes you specified in this session, ERP LN searches the applicable setup state, as defined in the Setup Classes and States by Operation (tisfc0133m000) session. If ERP LN finds no such setup state for the operation, ERP LN assumes that the operation has the setup state that comes after all other setup states. ERP LN checks the Order Block Planning (tisfc0151m000) session for order blocks with the same set of setup classes and setup states as the production order that you want to add. If ERP LN finds such an order block, ERP LN checks whether that order block's start date is on or after the value of the Add to Block Planning After field. If ERP LN found an order block that meets these criteria, ERP LN adds the production order to the order block. If ERP LN found no suitable order block, ERP LN inserts a new order block in the Order Block Planning (tisfc0151m000) session, and adds the production order to the new order block. After you added production orders to an order block, or removed production orders from an order block, you must reschedule the order block. To reschedule an order block, in the Order Block Planning (tisfc0151m000), on the Specific menu, click Reschedule Order Blocks.
