• Key Concepts: 
  Rescheduling is a feature of the Reservation Planning component of SAP's Supply Chain Management (SCM) Advanced Planner and Optimizer (APO) Production Planning and Scheduling (PPS) module. It allows users to adjust the planned start and end dates of production orders, as well as the planned quantity, in order to meet customer demand. 
  
  How to use it: 
  Rescheduling can be used to adjust the planned start and end dates of production orders, as well as the planned quantity. This can be done manually or automatically, depending on the user's preferences. To manually reschedule a production order, users can select the order in the Reservation Planning screen and then adjust the start and end dates or quantity as needed. To automatically reschedule a production order, users can select the order in the Reservation Planning screen and then select the “Automatic Rescheduling” option. This will automatically adjust the start and end dates or quantity of the production order based on customer demand. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When manually rescheduling a production order, it is important to consider any potential impacts that this may have on other orders or processes. For example, if an order is rescheduled to start earlier than originally planned, this may cause delays in other orders that are dependent on it. It is also important to consider any potential impacts that rescheduling may have on inventory levels or customer service levels.
