Recalculate for Process Manufacturing Work Definitions

You can use the Recalculate action to recalculate a subset of your plan output to quickly see the impact of changes to your constrained supply plan.

  • You can update the date and quantity of a planned order for primary output item. For existing work orders for the primary item, you can only set the firm quantity to 0.

  • If you change the planned order quantity of the primary output item, then the planned orders for co-product and by-product supplies are recalculated proportionally with due dates unchanged.

  • If you move in or out the supply due date of primary item, the corresponding dates for co-product and by-product supplies also move in or out by the same offset.

  • If you manually create a planned order, the planned order co-product and planned order by-product supplies are also created in proportional quantities based on the work definition of the primary output item. The due dates of co-product and by-product planned order supplies remain the same as of suggested due date of primary item's supply. The suggested completion date will also be same as of suggested due date of primary item's supply.
