This information is subject to restrictions on first page. 10110 Utg. 4 10110 Utg. 10 Realistic release dates The release date from the ERP system may be negative (i.e. in the past). Therefore a realistic estimate on the part arrival time at the multitask cell is calculated using the knowledge of the part’s actual position at time t0. The release date is then calculated by the formula Standard queue time rj = max {realistic estimate; ERP release date - 0.8υj} If order checked-in: rj = 0 rq = rj + rl = rj + 9510KT, Karin Thörnblad Volvo Aero Corporation Proprietary Information.
