Smart SAP Assistant

  • Key Concepts: 
    Start No Earlier Than (SNET) is a constraint in SAP PPM-PRO Project Management that prevents a task from starting before a certain date. This date is set by the project manager and can be used to ensure that tasks are completed in the correct order and on time. 
    
    How to use it: 
    To use SNET, the project manager must first set the start date for the task. This can be done by selecting the task in the project plan and then setting the start date in the “Constraints” tab. Once this is done, the task will not be able to start before this date. 
    
    Tips & Tricks: 
    When setting SNET constraints, it is important to consider any dependencies that may exist between tasks. If a task has a dependency on another task, then it should not be set to start before that other task is completed. 
    
    Related Information: 
    SNET is just one of many constraints available in SAP PPM-PRO Project Management. Other constraints include Finish No Later Than (FNLT), Must Start On (MSO), and Must Finish On (MFO).
