Planning Exception Sets
Planning exception sets specify the sensitivity controls and exception time periods for each exception message.
Since different sensitivity controls and exception time periods are appropriate for different types of items, you can define as many planning exception sets as you need. Assign the appropriate exception set to each item when you define or update the item.
Sensitivity controls that quantify excess and repetitive variance exceptions are:
- repetitive variance percentage
- resource under-utilization
- resource over-utilization
- user-defined time fence (in days)
Exception time period types that define the time period for overcommitted, shortage, excess, and repetitive variance exceptions are:
- cumulative manufacturing lead time
- cumulative total lead time
If you choose to use a user-defined time fence, you must define the number of days that this time fence corresponds to.
