using shop order pegged materials with multilevel product structures. The top-level shop order may have 1 or more component rows that have a shop order pegged to them as supply. Those next-level shop orders may also have 1 or more component rows that have shop orders pegged, and so on.
When scheduling the orders in APB we get an incorrect plan. The problem is that neither of the 3 planning settings (Infinite, Finite, Always Finite) give us a plan in the way we would expect for these material lines, and also does not give us a reflective view of the work center capacity plan, as the demanding shop order may not schedule when set to Always Finite, schedules before the supply orders when set to Infinite or schedules far out into the future when set to Finite.
