Baan uses the company calendar in the following modules to determine the start and end dates for planned orders:
- Master Production Scheduling
- Material Requirements Planning
- Capacity Requirements Planning (All three combined in a single planning module for Baan V and LN)
- Shop Floor Control
The calendar provides the valid working days, number of shifts per day and the number of hours in a day.
Baan allows for a single calendar for the whole company or for a calendar for each work center.
