| # Production Planning (tisfc0110m000) Use this session to display, define, and/or modify the production planning. You can modify the timing of a production order's detailed planning manually. You can also modify the planning in the Production Planning by Planning Board (tisfc1120m000) session. Related topics Production orders - functional overview Planning production orders in SFC Labels in Manufacturing Scrap and yield Network routings Integrations of SFC with Quality Management Production Order The production order number. Allowed values The production order must have been defined in the Production Orders (tisfc0501m000) session. In this session, you can only maintain the production planning of the orders with one of the following statuses: Planned Documents Printed Released Active Related topics Production orders - functional overview Planning production orders in SFC To use an overview session Queue time compression Input / output control Shared work centers Order Status The order status of the production order. Item The main item of the production order. If the bill of material (BOM) of the main item does not contain phantoms, the main item is the same item as the item in the Operated Item field. Production Start Date and Time The date and time on which the order is planned to be taken into production. The Production Start field is filled during production order creation. If the production planning changes, this date can be automatically updated. The start date of the order can be copied from the planned orders generated in the modules: Warehouse Orders Inventory Planning Resource Requirement Planning Forward planning If the planning method field has the value Forward, the production start date can be used to calculate the delivery date. Backward planning If the planning method field has the value Backward, the production start date can be derived from the delivery date and the order lead time of the item. The production start date is then calculated as follows: Production start date = delivery date - order lead time of item This formula is used in the following situations: When you manually enter a production order When you click the Plan button to recalculate the production start date When a production order for an item of type Manufactured has no routing and is transferred to the Shop Floor Control module. Note The calendar that is used for the production order depends on the Used Calendar Type field in the Routing Parameters (tirou0100m000) session. If the Used Calendar Type field is Company, the company calendar (defined in the Companies (tcemm1170m000) details session) is used. If the Used Calendar Type field is Work Center, the calendar of the work center's department (defined in the Departments (tcmcs0565m000) details session) is used. If you selected Work Center in the Used Calendar Type field, but no work center calendar is available, the calendar of the department's enterprise unit is used. If you selected Work Center in the Used Calendar Type field, but neither a work center calendar nor an enterprise unit calendar is available, the calendar of the department's company (defined in the Companies (tcemm1170m000) details session) is used. You can manually modify the calculated start date. Planned Delivery Date The delivery date and time of the production order. The delivery date of the order is copied from the planned orders generated in the modules: Inventory Planning Resource Requirement Planning Forward planning If the planning method field has the value Forward, the delivery date can be derived from the start date and the order lead time of the item. The delivery date is then calculated as follows: Production start date = delivery date + order lead time of item This formula is used in the following situations: When you manually enter a production order When you click the Plan button to recalculate the production start date When a production order for an item of type Manufactured has no routing and is transferred to the Shop Floor Control module. Note The calendar that is used for the production order depends on the Used Calendar Type field in the Routing Parameters (tirou0100m000) session. If the Used Calendar Type field is Company, the company calendar (defined in the Companies (tcemm1170m000) details session) is used. If the Used Calendar Type field is Work Center, the calendar of the work center's department (defined in the Departments (tcmcs0565m000) details session) is used. If you selected Work Center in the Used Calendar Type field, but no work center calendar is available, the calendar of the department's enterprise unit is used. If you selected Work Center in the Used Calendar Type field, but neither a work center calendar nor an enterprise unit calendar is available, the calendar of the department's company (defined in the Companies (tcemm1170m000) details session) is used. Backward planning If the planning method field has the value Backward, the delivery date can be used to calculate the production start date. You can manually modify the calculated delivery date. Requested Delivery Date The date that the customer has requested for the production order. If the planning method is Forward, the Requested Delivery Date equals the Planned Delivery Date of the moment the production order is generated. If the planning method is Backward, the Requested Delivery Date is the starting point for planning. Production Order The production order's code. Operation The sequence number of the operation, which is used for the production of the manufactured subassembly or finished product, and which you are planning in this session. Operation Status The current status of the operation which you are planning in this session. Start Operation If this check box is selected, there are no operations before this operation. Related topics Network routings Blocking Reason If the operation has been blocked, the reason for blocking. Related topics Blocking operations Defining blocking reasons for QM Operated Item The main item, or the phantom on which the operation is executed. If the Operated Item field does not contain the same item as the Item field, the operated item is a phantom. In this case, the routing of the phantom is connected to the routing of the main item. If the operated item is not a phantom, the main item and the operated item are the same. Related topics Phantoms Network routings Structure of a multilevel BOM Renumbering phantom operations Initial Hidden Operated Item Operated Item Routing Unit Routing Unit Overlap View the percentage of overlap in the planning. Yield Type Yield Type Yield Percentage Yield Percentage Scrap Quantity Unusable material or rejects of intermediate products, for example, because of faulty components, or products lost in cutting or sawing operations. The gross material requirements and/or an operation's input quantity must be increased to account for anticipated scrap. In the BOM, you can define scrap as a percentage of the net material requirements, which is the scrap factor, and as a fixed quantity, which is the scrap quantity. A scrap quantity is mostly used to define the amount of material that is lost every time when you start producing, for example, to test the equipment. For an operation, you can only define the scrap as a fixed quantity. The quantity of material that will be lost during production. The quantity is a fixed quantity that is independent to the quantity produced. Recording a scrap quantity prevents shortages in production. Scrap is an extra loss in addition to the loss caused by the yield being less than 100%. If you generate the BOM from an engineering BOM, the scrap factor and scrap quantity values will also be copied. However, these values will only be copied if the sequence number is the only thing changed, for example, wheel 10/1 to wheel 10/2. If a new item exist on the BOM line, for example, wheel to spare wheel, the scrap data will not be copied, In this case scrap quantity and scrap factor will be 0. Backflush Hours Backflush Hours Slack Time Slack Time Quantity Planned Input Quantity Planned Input DMS on Completion DMS on Completion Machine Occupation The number of machines needed to carry out the operation. Physical Location Physical Location Subcontracting Rate Factor Subcontracting Rate Factor Subassembly An intermediary product in a production process that is not stored or sold as an end product, but that is passed on to the next operation. For subcontracting purposes, a manufacturer can send a subassembly to a subcontractor to carry out work on the subassembly. This subassembly has its own item code defined in the Item Base Data. After work is finished, the subcontractor sends the subassembly back to the manufacturer. Also this reworked subassembly has its own item code defined in the Item Base Data. Subassembly Warehouse The warehouse from which the subassembly is sent or in which the subassembly is received. Calendar Calendar Rejected The quantity of the item produced by the production order that has been rejected in the Quality package. Completed Completed Reason for Rejects The reason for the rejection. Use a reason with reason type Rejection of Production Result. To define the reasons for rejection, use the Reasons (tcmcs0105m000) session. Planning Related Next Operation The operation after the current operation. If this field is 0 (zero), this operation is the end operation. Related topics Network routings Task The task that is performed in the operation. If anything is reported on the operation, you cannot change the task anymore. Work Center The work center in which the operation is carried out. You can only change the work center if the operation has one of the following statuses: Planned Ready to Start You cannot change the work center if some quantities have already been reported completed. You cannot change another type of work station into a line station or buffer. You can only change a subcontracting work station when no purchase orders have been generated or as long as already generated purchase orders can be deleted or cancelled Machine The machine on which the operation is performed. Default value The default for this field is the Machine field in the Routing Operations (tirou1102m000) session. This field is irrelevant in the case of a non-machine task. You can modify this field. If, for example, the machine is overloaded or must be repaired, it may be necessary to move the operation to another machine. Lead Times and Start Date Start Date Transport Date To The date on which the item is transferred from the sending warehouse of the previous operation. This field is relevant in case of operation subcontracting with material flow support. Related topics To subcontract operations (manufacturer's side) Queue Start Date The queue time of the current operation as you defined it in the Routing Operations (tirou1102m000) session. Click the Automated Queue Time Compression option on the appropriate menu of the Production Planning (tisfc0110m000) session to start the session which you can use to reduce the planned queue time. Related topics Queue time compression Lead times in Manufacturing Setup+Run Start Date The date and time on which ERP Enterprise plans to start the production time. If you alter the date and/or time of the Remainder Start Date field, ERP Enterprise recalculates the value of the Setup+Run Start Date field. The start date of the operation is copied from planned production orders, which are generated in Enterprise Planning, when the orders are transferred from Enterprise Planning to Shop Floor Control. If the production order is transferred from the session in Production Order Advice (whina3100m000) in Warehousing, ERP Enterprise copies the start date of the operation from that session. When you manually enter an order in the Production Orders (tisfc0101s000) session, ERP Enterprise calculates the value of the Setup+Run Start Date field using the lead-time elements of the operation that you specified in the Routing Operations (tirou1102m000) session. Remainder Start Date The date you want to start the operation, or if the operation has already been started, the date when you want to resume the operation. If you selected the Fixed Planning Dates check box, you can use this field to change the date you plan to start or resume an operation. You can choose whether ERP Enterprise uses the remaining order quantity or, the hours spent to calculate how much work has been carried out, by changing the Calculation Method Remaining Production Time field in the Shop Floor Control Parameters (tisfc0100s000) session. Wait Start Date The date and time on which the setup and run time of the operation are planned to finish, and the wait time is planned to start. for the production order. Note The wait start date is calculated in the Shop Floor Control (SFC) module. Move Start Date The date and time on which the wait time is planned to finish, and the move time is planned to start. Related topics Production order lead-times (transfer batch quantity) Transport Date From Date on which the item is transferred from the receiving warehouse, that is, the warehouse of the subcontracting work center. This field is relevant in case of operation subcontracting with material flow support. Related topics To subcontract operations (manufacturer's side) Transport Date To (Next Operation) Date on which the item is transferred from the sending warehouse of the current operation. This field is relevant in case of operation subcontracting with material flow support. Related topics To subcontract operations (manufacturer's side) Queue Start(Next Operation) or Planned Delivery Date If this operation is followed by other operations, this field displays the Queue Start(Next Operation) field. If this operation is the last operation, this field displays the Planned Delivery Date field. These fields are defined as follows Queue Start(Next Operation) The date and time on which the queue time of the next operation is planned to start. If the item is not sent to and from a subcontractor, this date and time equals the moment on which the move time of the operation is planned to end. Planned Delivery Date The date when you plan to deliver the item produced by the production order. For more information, see To determine on order dates. SU+Run (Next Oper.) or Requested Delivery Date If this operation is followed by other operations, this field displays the SU+Run (Next Oper.) field. If this operation is the last operation, this field displays the Requested Delivery Date field. These fields are defined as follows SU+Run (Next Oper.) The date and time on which the queue time of the next operation is planned to finish, and the setup and run time of the next operation is planned to start. If you selected the Transfer Batch Less Than Production Batch check box, and defined a batch quantity in the Transfer Batch Qty field for the first operation, the next operation can start before the first operation finished. In this case, the date and time in the SU+Run (Next Oper.) field of the first operation is equal to time and date in the Queue Start(Next Operation) field. Requested Delivery Date The date that the customer has requested the production order. If a production order, originating from a sales order, is transferred from Enterprise Planning, the requested delivery date equals the sales order delivery date minus the warehouse inbound, warehouse outbound, safety time and extra lead time. These four lead times cause a difference between the sales order delivery date and the planned delivery date. For more information, see To determine on order dates. Related topics Production order lead-times (transfer batch quantity) Fixed Duration If this check box is selected, the operation has a fixed duration, and its production time does not depend on the batch size. If an operation has a fixed duration, ERP Enterprise applies the following formula to calculate the run time:
    run time = cycle time / routing quantity
If this check box is cleared, the formula that ERP Enterprise uses to calculate the run time is as follows:
    run time = (cycle time * quantity planned input) / routing quantity
Transfer Batch Less Than Production Batch The quantity or percentage of items for which an operation must be finished before you can start with the next operation. Even though an operation is not yet finished for all items in a production order, you can start the next operation for the items that are already finished. In a production environment where kanban is used, the transfer batch quantity equals the kanban size (which is the standard container, or the standard lot size). The transfer batch quantity replaces the previously used concept of overlap percentage on operation. If this check box is selected, you can start the next operation before the complete production batch is finished. You must enter a value in the Transfer Batch Qty field, which indicates when the next operation can be started. If this check box is cleared, the next operation starts when the complete production batch is finished. If the Transfer Batch Method field in the Routing Parameters (tirou0100m000) session is Quantity, you must type a quantity in the Transfer Batch Qty field. If the Transfer Batch Method field is Percentage, you must type a percentage. Related topics Production order lead-times (transfer batch quantity) Transfer Batch Qty Enter a transfer batch quantity, if you selected the Transfer Batch Less Than Production Batch check box.

If the Transfer Batch Method field is Percentage, you must type a percentage. Related topics Production order lead-times (transfer batch quantity) Fixed Planning Dates If this check box is selected, ERP Enterprise uses fixed planning dates, and the operation will not be shifted due to changes in other operations. If this check box is cleared, the operations can be shifted. Select the Shift Planning option on the appropriate menu to start the Shift Production Planning (tisfc1202m000) session, which you can use to plan the operation to another date. Late Indicator that displays whether the move start date of the operation falls after the requested delivery date of the production order. Lead Times Time Unit The time unit in which the queue time is expressed. Allowed values Hours Lead times are expressed in hours and fractional values are allowed. Days Lead times are expressed in days and fractional values will be rounded to integer values. Transport Time To The time required to transport the subassembly from the sending warehouse to the warehouse at the subcontractor. In the manufacturer's system, the warehouse at the subcontractor is defined as an external warehouse. This field is relevant in case of operation subcontracting with material flow support. Default value The default value is calculated in Freight based on the addresses of the warehouses. Note If the first operation of the routing is subcontracted, this field is zero, because in that case no subassembly is transported from the manufacturer to the subcontractor. Related topics To subcontract operations (manufacturer's side) Queue Time The queue time of the operation as you defined it in the Routing Operations (tirou1102m000) session. Click the Automated Queue Time Compression option on the appropriate menu of the Production Planning (tisfc0110m000) session to start the session which you can use to reduce the planned queue time. Related topics Queue time compression Fixed Setup Time (SCS) The sequence independent time required to set up or change over a machine in order to start running the machine. The fixed setup time is only used when Infor SCM Scheduler and Infor SCM Planner are installed. Setup Time(Avg) The average setup time of the operation. Note If Man Occup. for Setup = 0 and Setup Time(Avg) > 0, the following applies: The machine hours' required capacity calculated for the order operation is not impacted and includes setup time. The setup time is not included in the man hours' required capacity for the order operation and the required man hours for the work center. This affects the man hours displayed on the work center utilization reports and the resource order plan. The setup time is not included in the estimated man hours and is not included in the calculation of operation costs for man capacity work centers. The setup time is used in calculating operation schedules. Production Rate The production rate of the number of products produced per unit of time. You can use a different production rate for different orders. If you change the value of this field, ERP Enterprise changes the value of production time. That means that you can use this field as an alternative way of entering the operation production time. If you click the Calculate Production Rate option on the appropriate menu, ERP Enterprise calculates the production rate, using the cycle time of the operation. This is only possible if the Use Production Rates check box in the Routing Parameters (tirou0100m000) session is selected. Note Whether the production rate is expressed in hours or minutes is shown in the next field. You can alter that in the Production Rate Time Unit field in the Routing Parameters (tirou0100m000) session. Production Rate Time Unit The time units in which the production rate is expressed. You can define this parameter in the Production Rate Time Unit field in the Routing Parameters (tirou0100m000) session. Cycle Time [Min] The cycle time of the operation. ERP Enterprise uses the cycle time to calculate the run time and the production time. Related topics Production lead-time calculation in Enterprise Planning Routing Unit The routing unit of the operation. Routing Unit The inventory unit in which the completed quantity of semi-finished products is expressed. Production Time The total production time required to carry out the operation. Related topics To calculate production times of operations Remaining Production Time The remaining production lead time required to finish the operation.

Transport Time From Lead time of transport of the subassembly from the warehouse at the subcontractor to the receiving warehouse. In the manufacturer's system, the warehouse at the subcontractor is defined as an external warehouse. This field is relevant in case of operation subcontracting with material flow support. Default value The default value is calculated in Freight based on the addresses of the warehouses and work centers. Related topics To subcontract operations (manufacturer's side) Slack Time The slack time of the current operation. Selecting the Transfer Batch Less Than Production Batch check box, and specifying a quantity in the Transfer Batch Qty field results in less slack time than the queue time of the next operation, or in a slack time value of zero. For all the options you can select in the Moving Method Next Operations field, except for the Move All Operations option, ERP Enterprise can move the slack time. If you set the field to When Overlap Occurs, the slack time can become longer if you move an operation to an earlier point in time. In this situation, ERP Enterprise does not touch the next operation, and, as a result the slack time on the moved operation increases. You can compress the slack of all the operations of an order automatically by reducing queue times. Refer to Queue time compression compression. Related topics Production order lead-times (transfer batch quantity) Overlap View the percentage of overlap in the planning. Capacity / Subcontracting Capacity Data Man Occup. for Setup The number of persons that is needed to accomplish the operation's setup. You must enter the number of persons that is needed to accomplish the operation in the Man Occupation for Production field. Note If Man Occup. for Setup = 0 and Setup Time(Avg) > 0, the following applies: The machine hours' required capacity calculated for the order operation is not impacted and includes setup time. The setup time is not included in the man hours' required capacity for the order operation and the required man hours for the work center. This affects the man hours displayed on the work center utilization reports and the resource order plan. The setup time is not included in the estimated man hours and is not included in the calculation of operation costs for man capacity work centers. The setup time is used in calculating operation schedules. Man Hours The man hours required to carry out the operation. Man Occupation for Production The number of persons that is needed to carry out the run time part of the production time.

If you selected the Backflush Hours check box, ERP Enterprise posts the hours automatically. If you use the Hours and Expenses by Employee Overview (bptmm1100m000) session, the hours are posted to the order/operation by that same session. Subcontracting Subcontractor The code of the business partner where the work takes place if the operation occurs in a subcontracting work center. Note ERP Enterprise treats subcontractors as buy-from business partners. Related topics Operation subcontracting without material flow support Subcontractor The name of the business partner who carries out the subcontracted work. Purchase Order The purchase order number that corresponds to the subcontracting order. Subcontracting Rate Factor ERP Enterprise uses this field and the subcontracting rate to calculate subcontracting costs. You can define the subcontracting rate in the Subcontracting Rates (ticpr1160m000) session. This field only applies if you selected the Operation Rate option in the Calculation Method for Subcontracting Costs field of the Subcontracting Rates (ticpr1160m000) session for calculation of the subcontracting costs. Related topics Operation subcontracting without material flow support Subcontracting rates Examples of subcontracting rates Qty Returned from Subcontracting The quantity received on the basis of a subcontracting order. Subassembly An intermediary product in a production process that is not stored or sold as an end product, but that is passed on to the next operation. For subcontracting purposes, a manufacturer can send a subassembly to a subcontractor to carry out work on the subassembly. This subassembly has its own item code defined in the Item Base Data. After work is finished, the subcontractor sends the subassembly back to the manufacturer. Also this reworked subassembly has its own item code defined in the Item Base Data. Subassembly Warehouse The warehouse from which the subassembly is sent or in which the subassembly is received. Quantity Planned Quantities Yield Type The yield type of the operation. Quantity Planned Input The quantity planned input planned to start the operation with. If you alter the scrap or yield values in the Routing Operations (tirou1102m000) session, ERP Enterprise recalculates this field to maintain the quantity planned output. Related topics Planned quantity to manufacture Calculating estimated quantity Example of estimating materials Inventory Unit Main Item The inventory unit in which quantities of the main item are expressed. Yield Percentage The percentage of yield expected in the operation. If you decrease the yield, ERP Enterprise increases the quantity planned input to keep the quantity planned output the same. Related topics Scrap and yield Yield Quantity Planned Output The quantity planned output for the current operation. Related topics Planned quantity to manufacture Calculating estimated quantity Example of estimating materials Scrap Quantity The quantity of scrap expected in the operation. If you increase the scrap, ERP Enterprise increases the quantity planned input to keep the quantity planned output the same. Related topics Scrap and yield Scrap Count Point If this check box is selected, the operation is a count point. Default value The default for this check box is the Count Point check box in the Routing Operations (tirou1102m000) session. For each operation it is determined if it is a count point. This is incorporated as a default in the order planning. You can modify this check box, until the operation has been reported completed. Related topics Reporting operations as completed DMS on Completion If this check box is selected, direct material supply (DMS) planning will be run when the operation is reported complete. Related topics Direct material supply (DMS) Actual Quantities Quantity Completed The quantity of items reported as completed, or the quantity on which the operation has been performed for the current operation. ERP Enterprise cannot change the corresponding value if the operation status is Blocked. Related topics Reporting operations as completed Quantity Completed of Semi-Finished Product The quantity of semifinished items that is reported as completed. ERP Enterprise can only fill this field if the operation is linked to an item defined as a phantom in the bill of material (BOM). Related topics Reporting main item or semifinished item quantities Quantity Rejected The quantity that does not reach quality standards for this operation. ERP Enterprise cannot change the corresponding value if the operation status is Blocked. Related topics Reporting quantities as completed and rejected Quantity Planned Rejects The quantity that is planned to disappear in the operation as a result of limited yield. ERP Enterprise needs the quantity of planned rejects when an operation is reported completed, and it automatically calculates the quantity completed. The quantity of the planned rejects depends on the setting of the Yield Type field in the Routing Operations (tirou1102m000) session: If you set the Yield Type field to Discrete, the quantity of the planned rejects is 0 (zero) by default. If you set the Yield Type field to Continuous, ERP Enterprise applies the following formula to calculate the quantity of the planned rejects:
    Quantity planned rejects=(quantity completed+quantity rejected+quantity to inspect)*(100/yield percentage)-1)+scrap quantity
Related topics Scrap and yield Yield type and quantity extra Planned Rejects Semi-Finished Product The quantity that is planned to disappear in the operation as a result of limited yield. ERP Enterprise can only fill this field if the operation is linked to an item defined as a phantom in the bill of material (BOM). The quantity of total semifinished items includes scrap, reduced yield and rejected items. ERP Enterprise needs the quantity of planned rejects semi-finished when an operation linked to a phantom item is reported completed, and it automatically calculates the quantity completed semi-finished. The quantity of the planned rejects semi-finished depends on the setting of the Yield Type field in the Routing Operations (tirou1102m000) session: If you set the Yield Type field to Discrete, the quantity of the planned rejects is 0 (zero) by default. If you set the Yield Type field to Continuous, ERP Enterprise applies the following formula to calculate the quantity of the planned rejects semi-finished:
    Quantity planned rejects semifinished=quantity planned rejects*quantity ratio semifinished
Example Main item BIKE has two phantom items WHEEL. As a result, the operation to produce the wheels has a quantity ratio semifinished of 2. In case of a production order of 3 bikes, and a calculated planned rejects of 1 on an operation for WHEEL on this order, the quantity planned rejects semifinished for the same operation is:
    1 * 2 = 2
Quantity of Item by End Item The ratio of semifinished items to end items produced in this operation. If you define the operated item as a phantom in the bill of material, ERP Enterprise uses this ratio to convert semifinished item quantities that are reported completed to main item quantities. Rejects Reason for Rejects The reason for the rejection. Use a reason with reason type Rejection of Production Result. To define the reasons for rejection, use the Reasons (tcmcs0105m000) session. Backflushing Backflush Hours If this check box is selected, hours are posted automatically when an operation is completed. The quantity is based on the hours estimated to be necessary to complete an operation rather than the actual number of hours worked on the operation or the materials estimated for an operation. Serialized items Serialized items can only be backflushed if in the Items - Warehousing (whwmd4500m000) details session the Serials in Inventory check box is cleared, and the Register Serial Issue During As Built field is Yes. In all other cases, serialized items cannot be backflushed. If the serialized item is lot-controlled, the lot from which the items are backflushed is based on the outbound method ( Last In First Out (LIFO), First In First Out (FIFO)) as is defined in the Items - Warehousing (whwmd4500m000) details session. Related topics Backflushing Overview of serialized items Quantity to Backflush The quantity of items, whose components and/or hours still have to be backflushed. If you backflush quantities, they are posted automatically when an operation is completed. The quantity is based on the hours estimated to be necessary to complete an operation rather than the actual number of hours worked on the operation or the materials estimated for an operation. Quantity Backflushed The quantity of end products included in the total order quantity for which the components and/or hours have been posted using backflushing. If you backflush quantities, they are posted automatically when an operation is completed.
