• Key Concepts: 
  Scheduling status is a feature of the Production Planning and Detailed Scheduling (PPS) component of SAP's Supply Chain Management (SCM) module. It is used to indicate the current status of a production order or process order. The scheduling status can be used to track the progress of an order, from the initial planning stage to completion. 
  
  How to use it: 
  The scheduling status is set by the user when creating a production or process order. The status can be changed at any time during the order's lifecycle, depending on the progress of the order. For example, when an order is first created, it will have a status of "Planned". As the order progresses, its status can be changed to "Released", "In Process", or "Completed". 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  It is important to keep track of the scheduling status of orders in order to ensure that they are progressing as expected. This can be done by regularly checking the status of orders and making sure that they are being updated as needed. Additionally, it is important to ensure that all orders have a valid scheduling status before they are released for production.
