Work Center - Planning (cprpd2100m000)

Use this session to list the work centers, which you can maintain and display in the details session.

To load work centers from the execution level as resources in Enterprise Planning, click Load Work Center Data on the appropriate menu.

Note: 
  • If you delete a work center, all planning data linked to that work center (rough capacity requirements and so on) are also deleted.
  • Only resources specified in this session are considered in the planning methods of Enterprise Planning.
  • If you started this session by zooming, you can only find and select a record.

Field Information

Work Center

The work center for which the planning is made.

Resource Planning Horizon

resource planning horizon

Operations Storage Horizon

operation storage horizon

Set the operation storage horizon to the maximum possible value (9999 days), unless the number of stored operations causes performance problems. These problems can occur sometimes, if you plan orders by using Infor SCM Planner. If you do not use Infor SCM Planner, you can avoid these problems by setting a reasonable fixed lead-time horizon.

Note: The operation storage horizon cannot be longer than the shortest order horizon among the plan items that are produced at the specified work center.

Performance aspects

The setting of this field could affect system performance and database growth. For more information, refer to Operation storage horizon.

Constraint

If this check box is selected, the work center is considered Constraint in the Resource Master Planning (RMP).

Note: This field is only used in workload control.

Critical in CTP

critical in CTP

If this check box is selected, LN takes into account the specified work center if it performs a capacity CTP check for an item that uses capacity of the work center.

Performance aspects

The setting of this field could affect system performance and database growth. For more information, refer to Maintain resource master plan.

Maintain Resource Master Plan

If this check box is selected, LN generates a resource master plan when you initialize the scenario.

Note: After selecting this check box, use the Initialize, Roll, and Update Scenario (cprpd4200m000) session to initialize the resource master plan.

Performance aspects

The setting of this field could affect system performance and database growth. For more information, refer to Maintain resource master plan.
