In SAP S/4HANA PP/DS, theInsert Operationscheduling mode (configured in the strategy profile, e.g.,
/SAPAPO/CDPSC11) is a finite scheduling option that inserts a new operation into an existing schedule while respecting capacity constraints. Effects include:
* Scheduling of an operation takes place as close as possible to the desired date(A): The system schedules the operation (e.g., in /SAPAPO/PPDS_DISP) at the earliest feasible time slot near the desired date (specified in the order or planning parameters), considering finite capacity and resource availability.
* Neighboring operations can be moved in both directions in order to create a slot(C): To accommodate the new operation, the system shifts existing operations forward or backward (within tolerances defined in the strategy profile), ensuring a feasible slot without overloading the resource.
Sequencing on multi-activity resources(B) isn't automatically updated-this requires a separate heuristic (e.g.,
/SAPAPO/HEUR_SEQUENCE).Changes in the complete collective order(D) don't occur automatically- collective orders require explicit rescheduling of linked orders, not an inherent feature of Insert Operation.
