Production Template Import task

The Production Template Import task is used by the production workload feature to generate schedules from production plans. When it runs, this task identifies production plans with a PENDING status and generates schedules from them. The task identifies production templates that match the product and machine combination in each production plan. For matching production templates, the task generates unassigned shifts in the associated shift templates that overlap the time range specified in the production plan.

For more details on the production workload feature, see Configuring production workloads.

Customers using this feature must schedule this task in the job scheduler to run on a recurring basis. Customers that import production plans from external systems should run this task on the same frequency or a shorter frequency as the task used to import production plans. This ensures that schedules are generated as new production plans are imported.
