When calculating Suggested Start Date, the planning process uses the Suggested Shipment Date, which is calculated using the Source Organization Shipping Calendar. The planning process checks to see if that date is a valid working day on the Source Organization Manufacturing Calendar. If the date is a working day per the Source Organization Manufacturing Calendar, then the Suggested Start Date is equal to the Suggested Shipment Date. If it's not a working day per the Source Organization Manufacturing Calendar, then the Suggested Start Date is moved ahead to the first working day in the Source Organization Manufacturing Calendar.
Additional Information About Planned Order Dates
When you mark an order for release, the Implement Date is defaulted from the Firm Date or Suggested Due Date. If you need to account for postprocessing lead time, then you must manually update the Implement Dock Date.
If a make or buy planned order is pegged to multiple demands, the Need by Date on the planned order is the Earliest Pegged Demand Date.
