What is Unconstrained Planning ?

In the unconstrained planning, we take into consideration that
we have enough material (on-hand) and enough resources to
manufacture, so that the demand is satisfied on the specified
date.

Objective of Unconstrained Plan..

Plan Objective is to always satisfy demand on time.

BOM/Routing lead times are accurate

No need to select alternate BOM/Routings and Substitutes

Constraint Planning

In the constrained planning, the planning engine will tell us

that with the available resources and the available on-hand
resources, these are the dates on which demands can be
satisfied

Optimized Planning
Optimization determines the best possible sources of supply,
considering all your material, resource, and transportation
constraints.
We can choose to optimize plans to meet one or more of the
following objectives:
Inventory
Plan

profit
on-time delivery

Optimized Planning

Plan can be optimized by a variety of factors.

Material
Resources
Material and Resource
Enforce Demand Due Dates (Limited Time- Alternate
Resources)
Enforced Capacity Constraints (Limited Capacity
Pushing Order to future date)
