Definicja synchronization (SCM-APO-PPS)

A scheduling function for multi resources that is automatically executed by the system and by which the system schedules activities with the same duration and with a further common characteristic either simultaneously or, if this is not possible, without overlaps.

The characteristic is represented by a setup group that is assigned to the operation in the production process model.

For example, when synchronization is carried out, tempering activities that have the same duration and that have to be executed at the same temperature can be scheduled simultaneously at an oven. In this case, a setup group represents a particular temperature.
