SAP Note 517426 - Planning time fence in optimization

Summary :
The SAP Note addresses the issue where the PP/DS optimizer disregards the planning time fence during scheduling. The primary cause is attributed to design specifications. To remedy this, the note advises configuring the optimization horizon in a way that it starts outside of, or aligns with, the planning time fence. This adjustment prevents the optimizer from rescheduling orders within this time fence. For diverse product scenarios with varying planning fences, manual fixing of orders before optimization runs is recommended if horizon adjustments are impractical. Adjustments should also be reflected in the optimization profile settings.

Key words :
pp/ds optimizer ignores, planning time fence reason, longer planning time fences, pp/ds optimizer, terms pp/ds, planning time fences, planning time fence, prerequisites design solution, longer reschedules orders, suitable optimization horizon
