Also to consider Order Priority with Optimizer run, we can setup "Delay Costs" with Order Priority (for example, setup Priority 1 = 1000, Priority 2 = 50, rest = 1) -- so it works as --
(1) If Product B faces 1 hour delay, 60 (seconds) X 60 (minutes) X 50 = 3600 X 50 = 180,000
(2) If Product A faces 3 hours delay, 60 (seconds) X 60 (minutes) X 1000 = 3,600,000
(3) If Product B faces 25 hours delay, 60 (seconds) X 60 (minutes) X 50 = 4,500,000
--> Therefore, planned orders are generated & sequenced in order of (3), (2), (1) -- Which is desired.
But if we do NOT face any delay, then using "Delay Costs" does not work, since no multiplier can be captured.
Goes back again to DS Heuristics discussion....
Hope anyone can help me.
