The FDNB comes out the week before (on Friday 4/28). So "next week" on there is this week.

Sorry, I meant next week will be when they likely do a larger batch of scheduling.

What does "clean-up" scheduling mean/signify?
Only filling in small gaps in weeks that have already been scheduled. So don't expect many new vehicles scheduled.

What does "clean-up" scheduling mean/signify?
The system automatically fills up allocations when they do their mass scheduling. But for one reason or another, there may be left over allocations once the dust settles. Since dealerships get a report of what didn't schedule and why, that allows dealerships the opportunity to modify their orders to reflect current constraints. Then, when Ford does clean-up of the still open allocations, they will see a truck that can now be scheduled and schedule it. Ford might alternatively calculate some extra allocations they didn't count on three weeks ago and that would allow a dealership to get an extra truck than initially planned.

So, for example, if a dealership notices they have one more allocation (either earned or left over) and all of the trucks not scheduled were the result of just having the SIBL, they just need to convince one person to drop it and that truck will likely be scheduled this week. Thus Ford "cleans up" their allocations.

However, this only applies if a given dealership has any allocations left. Most will not after that week of mass scheduling three weeks ago. Which is why most of us consider these types of weeks a wash.

So this looks to be plugging in gaps at the tail end of what’s been scheduled. Does that mean a possibility for more scheduling need to plug the holes and fill the end?

or… since the last batch was so large maybe they have enough to plug gaps and get to the end. :censored:

ok.. but the factory is still just churning along this week and next.... It is cleaninup old past schedules this week and next... Or are you just refering to no shedules released for future corresponding shfits (which is those june dates mentioned)... rather those June dates mentioned will just be cleaning up incomplete work from previous schedules?
