| Select Data for Planning Board (tisfc1125m000) |  |
| Use this session to select the production orders that must be displayed in the graphical planning board (SFC Gantt chart). You can simply select a range of production orders, but you can also use several criteria to select production orders, for example, production orders by PCS project, production start date, machine, or work center. Carry out the following steps: Select the data that you want to view in the graphical planning board. Click Continue. The graphical planning board is started. In the planning board, you can choose how to view the production orders. For more information, refer to SFC Gantt Chart (tisfc1126m000). Related topics To use a graphical planning board
Fields | Description
Production Order | An order to produce a specified quantity of an item on a specified delivery date.
Project | A collection of manufacturing and purchasing actions that are performed especially for a particular customer order. A project is initiated by a customer order for items having a To Order order policy. The purpose of a project is to plan and coordinate the production of these items. For a standard-to-order production, the project is only used to link the item with the customer order. Otherwise, a project can include: Customized item data (BOMs and routings) Project planning (activity planning) A budget is a special type of project. A budget is used to plan and estimate, not to carry out production.
Production Start Date and Time | The date that the production order is started.
Planned Delivery Date | The date that the production order items are finished according to the planning.
Order Status | The status assigned to a production order, which indicates how far a production order has been processed. For example, Planned, Documents Printed, or Released.
Work Center | A specific production area consisting of one or more people and/or machines with identical capabilities, that can be considered as one unit for purposes of the capacity requirement planning and detailed scheduling.
Machine | In ERP LN, a mechanical object on which operations can be carried out to produce items. Machines are linked to operation rates. The operation rate and the labor rate together form the basis for the actual costing of production orders.
Remainder Start Date | The date on which the rest of the production is planned to start.
Item | In ERP LN, the raw materials, subassemblies, finished products, and tools that can be purchased, stored, manufactured, sold, and so on. An item can also represent a set of items handled as one (kit), or exist in multiple product variants (generic item). You can also define nonphysical items, which are not held in inventory but can be used to post costs or to invoice services to customers. Examples of nonphysical items: Cost items (for example, electricity) Service items Subcontracting services List items (menus/options)
Skip operations having Remaining Production Time = 0 | If this check box is selected, finished operations are not displayed in the planning board.
Skip operations with status Completed | If this check box is selected, operations with the Completed status are not displayed in the planning board.
Read Only | If this check box is selected, you will not be able to move operations around with the mouse in the planning board to change the operations' planning data. However, you will be able to double-click the operation blocks in the planning board, so that the appropriate session is started in which you can change planning data.
Grid Size | If you are replanning operations in the graphical planning board, you can define the step size (in minutes) to drag and drop an operation. For example, if the Grid Size field is 30 minutes, you can move an operation with steps of 30 minutes. The start time of your operation can then be 12.30, 13.00, 13.30, etcetera. Note If your grid size is 1 or 2 minutes, and you increase it, for example, to 15 or 30 minutes, the sensivity of the planning board is decreased. A larger step size prevents you from accidently moving an operation by only touching the operation with the mouse.
