Hi All,
We operate with CDP & Block Planning for resources. Our block schedules are laid out for 3-4 months in the future & the immediate 7-10days worth of blocks (orders within) are Planned out for Production & FIXED.
Now, when schedule disruptions (unforeseen) happen or because of other needs, it is required to move the schedule/blocks around to adjust with the reality. At this time, with the current functionality, the schedulers have to UNFIX the blocks & then move them around & then put the FIXING indicator back on. This process on an average takes 3-4 hrs to complete & given that our Orders entered in ECC make a call to APO using CTP, potential exists that NEW orders would enter into these blocks that were UNFIXED for the move.
We've tried to explore all possible options within SAP to see if FIXED blocks could be moved, however, attempts have been futile. Has anyone in this group had this need before? If Yes, what was the approach (systemic) taken?
Thanks
