ABSTRACT:
A computer implemented planning system and process are disclosed that providing mechanism for grouping and prioritizing consumer objects based on multiple criteria. The manufacturing of a product is planned using an object model that includes buffer objects. The buffer objects include a grouped flow policy field that specifies a grouping for consumer objects based upon criteria of the consumer objects. In one implementation, a bucketed nested sort flow policy, that is a subclass of the grouped flow policy, is used to specify grouping further based upon start dates. In a further implementation, a bucketed combined sort flow policy, that is a subclass of the bucketed nested sort flow policy, is used to specify grouping further based upon aggregations of criteria values.
