Infinite Scheduling
Production Planning
Infinite Scheduling
Scheduling method that assigns work based on dates and priorities without enforcing resource capacity limits.
Examples
- 01With infinite scheduling, the ERP plans all orders on their due dates, even if that loads the welding robot at 180 % next week.
- 02The planner reviews the overloads that infinite scheduling creates and moves jobs by hand to make the plan feasible.
- 03Because infinite scheduling produced plans no one could follow, the plant switches its bottleneck to finite scheduling.
