Hi NU I can understand what Ax is doing and it seems logical.
What version are you using V3 or V4? Let me see if there is a workaround Regards Harry ________________________________ From: Axapta-Knowledge-Village@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of imaginationss Sent: 27 November 2006 12:59 To: Axapta-Knowledge-Village@yahoogroups.com Subject: [Axapta-Knowledge-Village] Re: Axapta Production Scheduling with Multiple Shifts... Hi, Could you please explain your answer to this question a bit more detailed for me? I'm having the same problem with the production scheduling and couldn't figure out how to solve it with the solution you mention. If we have a work center group (WCG) with 2 workers in it, working in shifts. Worker 1 (W1) is working between 08:00-14:00 and worker 2 (W2) is working between 14:00-20:00. I assign the work to this WCG on the route. Let's say that the process time is 1 hours per product. I sell 9 items and run the master scheduling for "job scheduling" I will have 9 hours of workload in total. (1 hours per product X 9 peaces) The system assigns the work to the W1 in the morning for 6 hours (between 08:00-14:00) and for the left 3 hours of work it waits until the next day 08:00 o'clock until the W1 becomes available again. The W2 sits free by this time without any workload. Normally we expect the system to assign the left 3 hours to the W2 to continue in the second shift. But it doesn't. This is really very critical for me right now.
