Undo a scheduling action

The Undo functionality allows you to undo a scheduling action and return to a previous version of the current schedule. This functionality replaces the current schedule with the one that existed previously before the last scheduling function that has been executed.

This functionality only works for scheduling actions that have been performed since the data file has been opened. If a data file has been closed and reopened, this functionality does not work. If a scheduling action can be undone, the action is displayed in the Edit menu if a scheduling action can be undone. For example, Undo Create Batches. The number of scheduling actions defined on the General tab of the Preferences window limits the number of actions that can be undone.

If an action can be reversed, and an action that cannot be reversed, the application warns you that previous scheduling actions cannot be undone if you continue. These actions cannot be reversed:

A resource is deleted from a resource group and in a previous version of the schedule a batch has been allocated to the resource.
A resource group is deleted from process steps and in a previous version of the schedule a batch for that process step has been allocated to that group.
A process step is deleted, and in a previous version of the schedule a batch has been made available based on that process step.
A status is deleted and in a previous version of the schedule a batch has been available with that status.
A claim for enabling resources on resources and resource groups is changed and batches are allocated to this resource and/or resource group in the actual or previous version of the schedule.

The maximum number of actions to undo field is used to specify the number of scheduling actions that can be undone using the undo scheduling actions functionality. All the transactions must all be done within one session of Infor Production Scheduling, scheduling actions cannot be undone if the data file is closed.

Note: There are a couple actions, if completed, prohibit reversing prior functions.

For functions with the Apply option, such as Schedule Process Batches and Distribute Process Batches, if you click Apply and Cancel, this works like Undo. You can continue using Apply and Cancel or use the Undo and Redo functionality.

The Undo functionality works with scheduling actions on the planning board, the Batches menu, the Schedule menu, and the Inventory menu.
