Hello
I would like to suggest you to read carefully the following note, which explains the effect of the forward scheduling on the planned order:
| 1913017 | MRP: Forward scheduling and adjust basic dates |
This note provides the following explanation:
During the MRP run, a planned order will be always firstly scheduled backwards according to the in-house production time defined on the material master. In this process, system considers the requirement date and schedules the planned order backwards to calculate the basic start date.
The order finish date of the planned order is generally not adjusted by scheduling since it identifies the requirements date of the material.
If you have defined the forward scheduling for planned order on the scheduling customizing (OPU5), when the lead-time scheduling for the planned order is executed, the planned order will be scheduled forwards, considering the basic start date as the starting point of the forward scheduling.
Best regards
Caetano Almeida
