The sequence of processing as well as the throughput time of the work orders is controlled via priorities.

PATH: Administration > Setup > Production > Priority.

 

Priorities affect capacity planning including throughput time calculation, as well as pool control.

Priority_SAPStyle

Window basis_prioritaeten_browse.psr

 

You can use Window settings and Templates for the configuration.

 

In Item and in Work Order a priority can be stored. The higher the number, the higher the priority is. If a priority is stored in the order, it has precedence.

In case of multilevel calculation, the priority is passed on to the demand items.

Description

Priority

Unique identification of the material group.

Information

Arbitrary text describing the priority.

Utilization in %

The greater the value the greater the throughput time is.
 
Example:
If the resource has 8 hours for 1 machine, a utilization of 120% means that the machine can be scheduled for max. 9.6 hours for this order per day.

See Expand and compress.

 

Note: If this is not 100%, the system uses calculation method Exploit full capacity.

Transit time in %

 

The corresponding default is used if set to 100%. The transit time can be reduced by minimizing the % amount and it can be maximized respectively.

The following applies: The smaller the percentage value is, the faster the throughput will be.

 

Example:

At a defined transit time of 6 hours and 50% transit time, a time of 3 hours is calculated.

 

see Transit time

Pool Factor

Basic rule: The higher the pool factor is defined, the higher the priority is.

 

The sort order can be controlled using the pool factor.

Simply enter a very high number here for instant orders.

Function Pooling, Scheduling

Immediately

If this option has been activated, the order always has first priority, regardless of whether it can be produced.

 

You can define the default priority in Configuration wizard > Production > Create.
