Repetitive Schedule Dates

The repetitive planning process uses four dates to define repetitive schedules:

The first unit start date (FUSD) represents the date you plan to start production of the first assembly on a repetitive schedule.

The last unit start date (LUSD) represents the date you plan to start production of the last assembly on a repetitive schedule.

The first unit completion date (FUCD) represents the date you plan to complete production of the first assembly on a repetitive schedule.

The last unit completion date (LUCD) represents the date you plan to complete production of the last assembly on a repetitive schedule.

The difference between the FUSD and the FUCD represents the lead time of a repetitive assembly, and is the amount of time that it takes to complete a single unit of the assembly from start to finish. Oracle Work in Process calculates the lead time based on the routing for lines with a lead time basis of Routing based. Oracle Work in Process defaults the lead time from the production line for repetitive schedules on production lines with a lead time basis of Fixed.

The difference between the FUSD and the LUSD represents the repetitive processing days for your repetitive schedule. These are the number of days you plan to work on your repetitive schedule.

The following diagram illustrates the four repetitive schedule dates and some of the important relationships between them.
