Recalculates the underlying capacity need each time that a change is made in the schedule of the routing.

Sometimes, however, fine scheduling may require that an operation is extended into non-available time, for example to finish an order on a Friday. In such cases, the strict recalculation according to shop calendar entries can be suspended for one or more routing lines by using the Schedule Manually field.

If this field is set not checked (default), a change in starting date/time will cause the system to calculate a new ending date/time based on the capacity needs, and vice versa when changing ending date/time.

If the field is checked, the system will respect the stated starting and ending date/times when performing the automatic calculation of capacity. This means that the system will put more load on capacities than available in order to allow the operation in the extended time frame.
