Production Schedule Codes (tirpt0101m000)

Use this session to create and maintain production-schedule codes. Schedule codes can be assigned to items and scheduling areas, so that production orders for those items or areas can be sorted out for a time range (defined in the production schedule).

Field Information

Schedule Code

A production-schedule code identifies time ranges defined in a production schedule. If you link the schedule code to a scheduling area or to an item, you also link the period of that schedule code to that scheduling area or item.

Note:

You can link a production-schedule code to an item in the Item - Production (tiipd0101m000) session (through the Schedule Code field).
You can link a production-schedule code to a planning area in the Scheduling Areas (tirpt0103m000) session.
A production order can appear in both schedules, but with different periods, for example, every four weeks by item and weekly by scheduling area.

Period Table

The period table's code.

If orders are already scheduled in a certain period, you can still modify the start date and the end date of that period. However, the delivery date of the order must still occur between the modified start date and end date.

Note: The period code is defined in the Calendars and Periods module.
