Replanning determines the consistency of the planning (within a replanning lead time) for each resource with the requests and suggestions, and optimizes the resource with respect to the requirements.
For each type of resource that can be replanned, use this field to define the replanning mode:
- No processing. The processing will not analyze the resource consistency.
- Messages only. Continue the calculation with the previous dates and quantities. This value will display a message confirming if the resource is not required ("Useless"), if it must be moved and/or if the quantity needs adjusting.
- Simulation. Continue the calculation with the replanning dates and quantities. This value means that a replanning message will be submitted if necessary, but also that the processing will simulate its recommendations by date and quantity for the resources concerned.
If the selected replanning mode is Messages only or Simulation, at least one lead time must be entered.
The replanning rule is only applied to those products whose reorder policy provides for replanning.
