Earliest date for the execution of the production order. This date TAKES into account the FLOAT before production.

If, on order creation, a planned order exists for the production order or process order, then the order dates are taken from the planned order. When scheduling the production order the system tries to adhere to the order dates (if necessary, with reduction measures).

If it is not possible to adhere to the basic dates and if the control parameter in Customizing allows the basic dates to be ADJUSTED, the system adjusts the basic dates of the order during the scheduling run. If the control parameter in Customizing does not allow the basic dates to be adjusted, the order keeps the basic dates of the planned order.

If the production order is created manually, you must enter at LEAST one order date manually. The scheduling TYPE determines, which order dates you must enter.
