Defining lead time components

Lead time components are mostly defined outside Enterprise Planning, such as in Shop Floor Control or Purchase Control. The lead time components must represent the execution level as much as possible so that during planning, the lead times on execution level are reflected.

In the following sections, the relevant lead time components are listed that you can specify in LN for production, purchase, distribution, and general purposes.
