Pull planning means that orders are scheduled on the first conversion machine before they get scheduled on the corrugator. Such orders used to be marked with a yellow dot where otherwise the corrugator finishing time would appear.
That yellow dot has been replaced by three new icons which tell the planner not just that the order isn't scheduled but also in which part of the corrugator schedule it will have to go to be produced in time.
| - | This is what the old yellow icon used to be: It says that the order is not in Program Memory. There is time enough to produce it after the end of the current corrugator schedule. |
| - | The yellow icon indicates that the order will need to be integrated into the corrugator program that is being prepared: It must be integrated somewhere in between the un-numbered programs that are already in Program Memory. |
| - | The orange icon says that the order must be inserted into the schedule that is currently at the corrugator, as it must be finished at a time before the end of the current schedule (before the end of the last program with a program number). |
