 - Gradation Weight
 - The factor used to convert the setup state gradation level into a comparable time unit.
 - Setup Grouping Period
 - Constraint Threshold
 - 
            The time period after which a supply order step is considered as constrained.
            Note:
- You can view which supply orders are constrained when reviewing supply orders in a supply network. However, you can only consider late orders as constrained.
 - The Supply Order step is not constrained if planned date < due date + PE_CONSTRAINT_THRESHOLD.
 
 - Priority Factor if Allocated to Customer Demand
 - 
            The priority of the customer order.
            Note:
- This field determines the factor corresponding to: "How many times more important is a supply order allocated to a customer order/warehouse demand order than a supply order allocated to a forecast".
 - If the field value is set to 1, the supply order steps for CO lines, or warehouse demand orders to be equivalent to forecast orders.
 - If the field value is set to 2, the CO lines, or warehouse demand orders have twice the priority.
 
 - Synchronize Purchase Orders
 - 
            If this field is set to Yes, and a production order is late due to planning constraints, Planner postpones a planned or firm-planned purchase order that is allocated to that production order.Note: If this field is set to No, and a production order is late due to planning constraints, Planner does not postpone planned or firm-planned purchase orders that are allocated to that production order.
 - Use Requirement Engine

 - Detailed Logging
 - 
            
If this field is set to Yes, detail logging is enabled.
 - Integration Date at the Last Planning Engine Run
 - 
            The date of the last planning engine run.
            Note: The Planning engine updates each time when a Planning engine run is completed.
 - Last Planning Engine Run Start Date
 - The start date of the last planning engine run.
 - Last Planning Engine Run End Date
 - The completion date of the last planning engine run.
 - Last Planning Engine Run Duration
 - The time taken for the last Planning Engine run to complete.
 - PO After CTF Count
 - MO DO After CTF Count
 - Due Date Respect Threshold
 - The maximum lateness duration during which the PE due date respect evaluation function calculates the due date scores using a linear curve.
 - Backward Scope
 - The time period for backward scope.
 - Forward Scope
 - The time period for forward scope.
 - Synchronize Scope
 - The number of supply order steps that the Planning Engine simultaneously evaluates and compares during synchronization phase.
 - Allocate Validate Scope
 - The number of supply order steps that the Planning Engine simultaneously evaluates and compares during the allocation validation phase. This value is defaulted from the Planning Engine Parameters (plaps0120m000) session.

 - Move Released SO
 - 
            
If this check box is selected, the planning engine moves the released substitution orders in the same way as firm-planned and planned substitution orders.
 - Move Confirmed SO
 - 
            
If this check box is selected, the planning engine moves confirmed substitution orders in the same way as firm-planned and planned substitution orders.
 - Push Unconfirmed Released PO
 - 
            
The scenario in which Purchase Orders without a confirmed delivery date to transfer.
Allowed values
- Never
 - The Planned Delivery Date of the Planning Engine is equal to the Due Delivery Date.
 - No Confirmed Date
 - A Released Purchase Order can only be moved if it does not have an ERP Confirmed Delivery Date and if its Due End Date is inside NOW + Supply Time + Safety Time Date.
 - No Confirmed or Changed Date
 - A Released Purchase Order can only be moved if it does not have an ERP Confirmed Delivery Date and/or an ERP Changed Delivery Date and if its Due End Date is inside NOW + Supply Time + Safety Time Date.
 
 - Material Constraint Generation
 - 
            
The method used to generate material constraints during a Planning Engine run.
Allowed values
- No Constraint
 - The material constraints are not generated.
 - Finite Plan
 - The PE identifies material constraints in the finite plan by evaluating the material demand according to due date, and generates a material constrains in the finite plan.
 - Infinite Plan
 - The PE generates material constraints that prevent meeting demand on the original requested (due) date.
 
 - Capacity Constraint Generation
 - 
            
The method used to generate capacity constraints during a Planning Engine run.
Allowed values
- No Constraint
 - The capacity constraints are not generated.
 - Finite Plan
 - The PE generates capacity constraints for MO steps based on the finite plan.
