Hi,

 

22R2 and onwards brings the MSO feature, to replace APB in the end.

 

A major drawback of APB was the lacking integration with HR. Employee schedules and rules are not used for APB, which means that hollidays for example are not taken into account for the capacity calculation of a certain labour class.

 

Is this resolved with MSO?

 

Practical example:

We have labour class “Welders”. The labour class consists of 2 persons, Person A and Person B,, each working 8h/days 5 days/week. That means, we have a capacity of 16h/workday in the labour class Welders.

Person B will go on leave in week 43. This is entered in IFS, in the HR module. However, APB will not see this drop in capacity. In week 43, you will still have 16h/day capacity for labour class welders, while in reality you will only have 8h.

Will MSO be able to solve the issue?

Hi,

Yes, This issue is resolved there in MSO from 23R2 release onwards.

MSO will consider HR schedule of Employees if it’s defined to consider HR schedule in ‘Manufacturing Labor Class’ page.

 

If Use HR Schedule is selected and IFS Human Resources is installed, Capacity hours changes due to HR calendar also will be considered for MSO same as we do in CRP calculation for the Site.  If Use HR Schedule is not selected, the person's calendar will be used.

Thanks!
