Sync Feeder Lines

Use the Sync Feeder Lines scheduled process to synchronize feeder lines with the main production line for a specified date range by creating child flow schedules for the dependent demand derived from the parent flow schedules of the parent assemblies.

When to Use

You can run the Sync Feeder Lines action for a parent production line to create the flow schedules for feeder lines based on the specified date range through the Manage Flow Schedules page on a need by basis. You can also manually run the process in the Scheduled Processes work area or schedule the process to run at specific time intervals.
