What's new in version 2605.0.0.0

Enhancements/Modifications

With this release of the Aptean Production Scheduling extension, the system schedules co-product and unplanned output lines on a production order together with the main item, so that outputs produced in the same production run no longer start after the main item has finished. The Production Order Scheduling page shows only the production order routing lines of the main item, and when the Automated Scheduling action is run, the system aligns each co-product and unplanned output line to the main item as follows:

• If the routing of the line contains a work center or machine center that also exists in the routing of the main item, the first matching operation starts at the same date and time as that operation of the main item, and the system schedules the other operations of the line based on its own routing, capacity, and calendar.
• If the routing of the line contains no work center or machine center of the main item, the line starts at the same date and time as the main item, and the system calculates its ending date and time based on its own routing, capacity, and calendar.
• If the line has no routing, the system applies the starting and ending date and time of the main item to the line.

The system applies the same alignment when the Refresh Production Order action is run, when the Schedule on Sorting No. action is run, when the production order routing lines of the main item are rescheduled, and when an unplanned output item is added using the Add Unplanned Output action. This requires the Aptean Process Manufacturing extension. For more information, see Production Order Scheduling functions.

Resolved issues

The following issue has been resolved in this release.

ID	Description
372713, 382851, 382852	The system fails to schedule co-product lines together with the main item when the Automated Scheduling action is run on the Production Order Scheduling page. The system schedules the co-product lines after the main item is finished, which results in a longer lead time for the production order than when the production order is refreshed.
