Planning Directions

Hi All,

 

I need help in understanding below 2 scheduling concepts. I have italicised & underlined my questions, please share your inputs with business example for better understanding.

 

Planning Direction Forward with Reverse:

If you select this option, the system first searches in the future for a scheduling date. If it does not find a scheduling date in this direction, it searches in the past.

 

In what business needs this situation may arise? That system will look in future & still not find scheduling date?

 

Planning Direction Backward with Reverse:

If you choose this option, the system searches in the past for a scheduling date. If it does not find a scheduling date in this direction, it searches in the future.

 

Does this mean that If order is being created with next week as start date & since scheduling/capacity is available this week so the system will schedule this order to start this week?

 

 

Thanks.
