• Key Concepts: 
  Scheduling from current date is a feature of the Capacity Requirements Planning (CRP) component of SAP's Production Planning (PP) module. It allows users to plan production activities based on the current date, rather than a predetermined start date. This helps to ensure that production activities are planned in a timely manner and that resources are allocated efficiently. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use the scheduling from current date feature, users must first enter the current date into the system. This can be done by selecting the “Current Date” option in the CRP menu. Once this is done, users can then enter their production activities and resources into the system. The system will then automatically calculate the start and end dates for each activity based on the current date. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using scheduling from current date, it is important to ensure that all resources are available on the current date. This will help to ensure that production activities are planned in an efficient manner and that resources are not wasted. Additionally, it is important to keep track of any changes in the current date as this may affect the start and end dates of production activities.
